(hennemusic) Royal Blood have scored their fourth consecutive UK chart topper with their latest release “Back To The Water Below”.
The Official Charts Company reports that the project from the duo of bassist/singer Mike Kerr and drummer Ben Thatcher continues an unblemished run of number one albums on the Official Albums Chart Top 100 with their fourth studio album. This follows the success of their eponymous debut “Royal Blood” (2014), “How Did We Get So Dark? (2017) and “Typhoons” (2021).
“Back To The Water Below” also tops the Official Vinyl Albums Chart and the Official Record Store Chart as the most purchased LP in the last seven days in the UK’s independent record stores, with physical sales accounting for over 85% of the album’s total first week sales.
Originally launched with lead single “Mountains At Midnight”, Royal Blood recorded the set in their home studio in Brighton.
The group will kick off a North American run at the Sea.Hear.Now festival in Asbury Park, NJ on September 16, following a UK tour in support of the album.
