The UK’s truly original and hugely loved band released Dreamland last week, and it’s been met with unanimous high praise across the globe. By entering the charts at #2, the band have achieved their highest ever scoring chart position, a massive 21 spots above their last album, Mercury Prize nominated How To Be A Human Being.
