The Prodigy has topped the Official UK album chart after six years with their sixth album ‘ The Day Is My Enemy.’
The new album outsold the competition, including Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran, despite receiving mixed reviews.
Their previous number one albums are: Music For The Jilted Generation (1994); The Fat Of The Land (1997); Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned (2004); Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005 (2005) and Invaders Must Die (2009).
While the usual suspects, Bay, Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, remained in the top five, they are joined this week by Sia, whose 1000 Forms of Fear has cracked the top 10 for the first time since its released 2014 July.
Sufjan Stevens’s Carrie and Lowell becomes his first UK top 10 album, entering the charts at No 5, while Circa Waves and Nightwish also score new entries, at 10 and 12 respectively.
In the singles chart, Jess Glynne held on to the top spot, despite strong competition from Ed Sheeran and Rudimental, whose track Bloodstream had been the biggest-seller at the start of the week.
