U.K. CHARTS: BMTH CLAIMS #1
1/29/21

Bring Me the Horizon have hit #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart with their EP Post Human: Survival Horror (RCA). Over on singles, TikTok star Nathan Evans has this week’s highest new entry at #3.

Post Human: Survival Horror arrived in physical formats this week, surpassing the #5 peak it charted at when released digital-only in October.

Bicep’s Isles (Ninja Tune) finished a close second. Further down, nun collective the Poor Clares of Arundel fly into the Top 5 with Light For The World (Decca) at #5, following the release of a digital deluxe version of the album featuring four new “chill mixes.”

Finally, Neil Diamond sees two of his albums rebound into the Top 20 following his 80th birthday celebrations. His All-Time Greatest Hits (Capitol/UMC) clocks in at #18, while Classic Diamonds with the London Symphony Orchestra swoops up 25 places to #20.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles chart, Evans—who kick-started the TikTok sea-shanty craze ShantyTok—claims this week’s highest new entry with a remix of “Wellerman” f/220 Kid & Billen Ted (Polydor).

Olivia Rodrigo’s “drivers license” (Polydor) remains at #1 for a third week on 86k chart sales, including 10.3m streams, while The Kid LAROI’s “Without You” (RCA) is up three places to #2.

Meduza f/Dermot Kennedy’s “Paradise” (Island) climbs up one place and into the Top #5 for the first time this week, delivering Kennedy a personal best in the U.K.
