Ed Sheeran’s mammoth reign at the top of the Official Albums Chart is over, and it’s Kasabian who have put an end to his nine-week stint.

The Leicestershire band’s sixth studio album For Crying Out Loud rounded out the week on 52,000 combined chart sales, some 5,000 ahead of Ed. For Crying Out Loud is Kasabian’s fifth Number 1 album in a row and is the first new collection of material since 2014’s 48:13.

Kasabian’s Serge Pizzorno tells OfficialCharts.com: “It’s absolutely incredible to have 5 Number 1 albums in a row. Thanks to everyone who has supported us. We can’t wait to play the new tracks on the road this summer”
