Mogwai‘s Rave Tapes has cracked the UK Top 10 Albums Chart.
The Les Revenants soundtrackers’ eighth studio album closed the week at #10 in the UK charts, with Warpaint‘s self-titled second album one place ahead of them at #9.
From there up it’s pretty weak sauce, Beyonce aside, with James Blunt, Bastille, Avicii and Ellie Goulding keeping hold of their high footholds, but still – Mogwai, eh?
