The midweek update released on Monday (December 5) reveals that the record has sold 66,000 units so far to place it at No.1. The band's last new studio effort to reach the top spot was 1994's 'Voodoo Lounge'.

Olly Murs is up one place to No.5 with '24HRS', while Michael Bublé’s 'Christmas' rises from No.11 to No.6 as festive fever grows in the UK. The crooner is also at No.7 with 'Nobody But Me'.

Jean-Michel Jarre is a new entry at No.29 with 'Oxygene 3', John Legend debuts at No.32 with 'Darkness And Light' and 'The Dream Synopsis' by The Last Shadow Puppets is in at No.34.
