A new year (in chart terms) so time for a new thread Let's see how long I can keep up with posting regular updates this year.

Top 100 update (28/12/2014, 22:00)

The year is off to a very uneventful start, no major releases this week (I think Echosmith's album is out but that's pretty much it, I guess we'll see tomorrow) and not even any pre-orders in the top 100, though Fall Out Boy's new album isn't far outside at #108, while Madonna, Mark Ronson and Imagine Dragons are also top 200.

I've put a link to the iTunes album chart in the main post (might be helpful ).

I think Ed Sheeran will be able to hold on to #1 for the next couple of weeks until the Fall Out Boy/Enter Shikari/Mark Ronson battle on the 19th.

Posted by: Michael Bubré 28th December 2014, 10:43 PM

Oh yes that'd probably be a good idea Thank you for that Liam.

Top 100 update (05/01/2015, 22:00)

Madonna #105, Imagine Dragons #129 and we have a couple more pre-orders sneaking into the top 200 - Enter Shikari's 'Mindsweep' at #111 and Rae Morris' 'Unguarded' at #178. Enter Shikari released the same week as Fall Out Boy and Mark Ronson, based on the pre-order positions they'll probably end up as the third highest new entry but I could see them being top 5 nonetheless.

We have a new release in the top 100! Huzzah. Låpsley's EP is only 4 tracks so sales will presumably be counted towards 'Falling Short'. I doubt it'll trouble the top 100 (possibly unless she is top 5 in Sound of 2015) but #43 is a fairly decent position.

Not a new release but George The Poet's album enters at #90 after he came 5th in Sound of 2015, this doesn't bode well for him to achieve much commercial success.

Go Rae Morris!

Posted by: liamk97 5th January 2015, 10:56 PM

Pleased that Rae Morris is making an appearance in the Top 200, looking forward to her album!

Seems Fall Out Boy will get the #1 out of the 19th January releases since they're also #32 on Amazon, with Mark Ronson at #74 and The Decemberists at #98. Enter Shikari are #15 on the pre-order list (other 19th Jan releases ahead of them are Belle & Sebastian and The Waterboys).

Poor Mark Ronson if he ends up #2 behind Fall Out Boy, that'd be 3 consecutive #2 albums for him without reaching #1 (though he at least now has a #1 single when previously he similarly had 2 #2 singles). That said Fall Out Boy also have a #2 and a #3 without a #1. And Enter Shikari have two #4s without making the top 3.

Britney's 'The Singles Collection' (2009) has been reduced to £3.99 for 23 songs and 16 videos! Bargain.

Top 100 update (06/01/2015, 23:30)

Slightly missed my cue today oop ~

Other pre-orders: Imagine Dragons #111 and James Bay has popped up at #164. Madonna and Rae Morris out of the top 200. George The Poet has climbed a bit more, while Raury doesn't have any albums to see a Sound of 2015 effect for unforch.

Meanwhile the week's new releases hot up as Joshua Radin apparently still exists. You may remember him from 'I'd Rather Be With You' from 2010, the song that was not by Jason Mraz but might as well have been (especially as it peaked at #11 for 2 weeks although thankfully fell quickly afterwards).

Pity Hozier isn't top 10 after last night performance. Glad to see Hudson Taylor have a release date!

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 10th January 2015, 09:50 PM

I think he is #3 on the albums on iTunes at the moment

Top 100 update (10/01/2015, 22:00)

Hozier is top 10 (#3 in fact as Ultra said, with a second version at #25 too) so not sure what you're referring to Steve! If you meant on the last update I think that was before / only just after the performance so the effect hadn't kicked in yet.

Looks like Kodaline have had a big lift from The Voice UK, their album back up to #37 + #82 and an EP at #63.

Other pre-orders #101-200 today: Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds #105, Enter Shikari #126, Imagine Dragons #186.

Yeh just looked at the last top 100 update and didn't realise it was from the day before . Good to see Hozier rising to no3!

Top 100 update (11/01/2015, 22:00)

Other pre-orders top 200 (definitely from a slightly later update but it'll only be slightly different to the positions from this one ~): Kid Ink #117, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds #130, Enter Shikari #137, Imagine Dragons #141, Belle And Sebastian 'Girls In Peacetime Want To Dance' #154.

It looks likely that there will be no new entries at all in the top 40 for a third week in a row, bleak doesn't even cover it. Luckily next week is looking a bit busier.

Top 100 update (12/01/2015, 22:00)

The Prodigy straight into the top 10 on pre-orders. GET IT. *.* Just seen it has a big banner on the iTunes homepage as well. There don't seem to be any other major albums set for a 30/3 release date so far, so their major competition for #1 will probably just be James Bay's second week unless someone (Adele) drops an album at short notice. Pretty hopeful they should be able to get a 6th #1.

Other lesser pre-orders in the 101-200 region today: Kid Ink #118, Hillsong Young & Free 'This Is Living' EP #136 (*.*), Imagine Dragons #139, Belle And Sebastian #140, The Wombats 'Glitterbug' #141 (was not aware they had a new album coming out at all), Meghan Trainor #176, Kodaline 'Coming Up For Air' #189.

One new release in the top 100 today but like all the other new albums of the year so far it'll likely be gone in a day.

I wonder why Noël Gallaghers pre order is so high? Could be a good first week for him.

The Wombats had a Hottest Record on Zane Lowe just before Christmas, glad to see a preorder up there. I assume a new single is being sent to radio too!

Posted by: ¡bré! 13th January 2015, 10:09 PM

Top 100 update (13/01/2015, 22:00)

I must have missed the memo when All Time Low got this big Just checked the release date and thankfully it doesn't clash with The Prodigy (it's out a week later), looking like an early contender for #1 perhaps, the previous two albums got to #20 and #9 so the momentum is with them (although both of those albums dropped out very quickly, the former only spent a week in the top 100 and the latter went 9-64-x )

More pre-orders in the top 200 (there are a ton of these now!): Charli XCX 'Sucker' #102, Falling In Reverse 'Just Like You' #107, Bethel Music 'We Will Not Be Shaken' #108, Meghan Trainor #113, Belle And Sebastian #119, Kid Ink #125, Imagine Dragons #128, Rae Morris #182, Kodaline #190, Striking Matches 'Nothing But The Silence' #191 and The Wombats #200.

FOB top 10, good to see. Maybe next week we will get an all new top 2 with decent sales. If FOB sell more than 30k I will be surprised, but they've had a good release strategy with all the instant grats this week.

Also as I said The Wombats did in fact have Zane Lowes hottest record tonight so that's the new single!

Top 100 update (15/01/2015, 22:00)

The Prodigy back ahead of All Time Low. Woop. Both dropping quite a lot but to be expected as the initial hype wears off.

The standard version has been charting all week but the new deluxe version of Gregory Porter's album has only just cracked the top 100. EDIT: Actually entered yesterday but didn't notice oop ~

Good to see Rae Morris in the top 100 at last, still massively impressed by FOBs performance - could actually do very well next week - first new No1 album of 2015?!

Posted by: MrIndependent 16th January 2015, 12:57 AM

Fall Out Boy and Mark Ronson will be battling it out for the #1 album next week. The former act has more impressive pre-orders, which will probably put them in the running in the first midweek update, however I think the latter act will have larger post-release sales and will hold up more impressively as the week progresses.

Posted by: Joe. 16th January 2015, 09:46 AM

Great to see the Brits have had a positive affect on Jessie Ware, who's album was 190/300 and now both versions are top 100 at #56 and #94.

Top 100 update (16/01/2015, 22:00)

Belle And Sebastian #108, Meghan Trainor #111, Rae Morris #117, The Wombats #156, Imagine Dragons #172, Halestorm #186.

The Shires appeared on the Radio 2 breakfast show, had a pretty good effect for them with an EP (released a little over a year ago) at #42 and an album pre-order in the top 100. They're apparently a British country act. Who knew such things existed?

A couple of minor new releases showing up today but tomorrow is the big day we finally get some notable new albums - expecting to see an entirely new top 3 tomorrow of FOB, Mark and Enter Shikari. Belle And Sebastian should also be top 10 along with possibly Above & Beyond and Kid Ink.

yay for a busy albums week finally

Mark Ronson should easily get the #1, as 'Uptown Funk' will undoubtedly give him a big boost with casual buyers

Fall Out Boy's previous album sold just under 25k f/w, depending on how much 'American Beauty/American Psycho' does it could either peak at #2, or possibly get stuck behind the usual Ed/George/Sam trio at #5 (hopefully the former), and for Enter Shikari i'm expecting a safe top 10 finish around #6/7 ~

I was actually expecting to see Fall Out Boy at #1 in the first update given how high up their instant grats were. In an ideal world, we'd have a new T3 for the first time in a while with Fall Out Boy, Mark Ronson and Enter Shikari, but sadly I can see George Ezra, Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran all messing that up; wouldn't surprise me if none of the new releases made the #1

Posted by: SevenSeize 19th January 2015, 07:45 PM

^ it seemed like FOB's pre-orders weren't added on the first update (judging by Ronson/Shikari shooting up and FOB remaining stable). not sure if they've been added now but they're top 2 now anyway~

Ah, Kid Ink's album isn't out for a couple more weeks - it was in the new release schedule for this week so must have been pushed back.

Top 100 update (19/01/2015, 22:00)

Other pre-orders top 200: Joey Bada$$ #102, James Bay #116, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds #124, Rae Morris #127, All Time Low #128, Imagine Dragons #169, The Cribs 'For All My Sisters' #173 ( they still exist?), Kid Ink #197.

Not quite the all-new top 3 I was expecting, 'The Weekender' must still be selling pretty well to hold off Enter Shikari on their first day of release. I was expecting Fall Out Boy to be #1, their pre-orders seemingly not being added on may be the reason they aren't (Mark would likely have overtaken later in the week anyway).

Björk's new album is #1 Seems the hype around its sudden early release is working wonders. Bjöncé is real.

Posted by: liamk97 21st January 2015, 04:24 PM

Seems it's only a download release so far as it's not on Amazon. Maybe there's just a bit of a delay/error and it'll be available physically soon as.

Posted by: ¡bré! 21st January 2015, 04:30 PM

It was released at very short notice, which I presume is easy to do digitally but rather harder to do with a physical release.

Posted by: *Tim 21st January 2015, 04:39 PM

It leaked days earlier so I imagine they rush released the digital version as it wasn't planned for release for quite a few weeks I thought

Top 100 update (21/01/2015, 22:00)

More pre-orders: The Prodigy #105, James Bay #122, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds #158, Imagine Dragons #165, Kid Ink #180.

I wonder if Björk could outchart her last album even on downloads alone? 'Biophilia' only got to #21 so 'Vulnicura' will only need to sell maybe 7k (accounting for the large number of new releases) to do so. Definitely would have done it last week I think.

Saor Patrol at #23 and #82 were apparently on The One Show today and the Martyn Bennett album at #56 seems to be related to something or other else that was on TV yesterday.

Yeah, I saw the Aphex Twin album on Amazon last weekend but I think it's a deliberately secretive release. Apparently it's a "13-track EP".

Top 100 update (25/01/2015, 22:00)

Apols for lack of update yesterday, was distracted by BJSC stuff ~ Mark has been #1 since the last update anyhow.

More pre-orders: Kid Ink #104, The Prodigy #112, Meghan Trainor standard #132, James Bay #149, Gaz Coombes 'Matador' #153, Ricky Dillon #156, Charli XCX #172, Imagine Dragons #174, Kodaline #175, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds #185.

Meghan Trainor and Rae Morris should be top 10 at least this week, possibly top 5. Actually can't call the #1 at this stage, I don't think Meghan will quite get there and I'm not sure how well Mark and FOB are likely to hold up so I wouldn't be massively surprised if this is finally the week Ed returns to #1 again. The Charlatans, Chicane, Gaz Coombes, Papa Roach and Selena Gomez should all also be new entries this week (there seems to be very little hype for the latter but all her previous albums have gone top 20 - then again this one is just a greatest hits).

Top 100 update (26/01/2015, 22:00)

Meghan has made it to #1 on iTunes (though I don't think she's miles ahead, I'm sure it wasn't too long ago I checked and she was still stuck behind Mark and FOB). Whether she can do it officially remains to be seen ~

Rae Morris doing quite poorly on downloads anyway, she'll be lucky to do 15k at this rate

Posted by: SevenSeize 26th January 2015, 10:33 PM

15k would seem pretty ambitious honestly i'd expect her to sell around 7-8k at most (she's still pretty much unknown in the grand scheme of things, at least right now)

Top 100 update (01/02/2015, 22:00)

Back to a quiet week - it looks likely Bob Dylan will get a #1 album this week, he has impressive digital pre-orders for a highly physical-based act. I'm sure he should easily manage the 20-25k ish he'll need for the #1. Kid Ink could contend for a top 10 album, and Indiana should be at least top 40. Say Lou Lou are finally releasing an album this week apparently, their Sound of... hype is long in the past now but perhaps still enough interest for them to go top 40 as well.

Other pre-orders: Ne-Yo #136, Charli XCX #194.

i've heard the Say Lou Lou album is out on February 25, though there's no pre-order atm so I can't be certain. Would be surprised if it managed to chart in the top 100 at all though (whenever it does get released)

Could be the lowest album no1/overall sales in a while this week.

Marina and the Diamonds is going to have been on pre-order for SO long by the time it's released in April. Hasn't really left the top 350 either.

I hope Jessie Ware's new single can push her back into the top 50.

Posted by: MrIndependent 7th February 2015, 12:26 AM

Gregory Porter's album moves from #39 to #9 following his Graham Norton appearance with a couple of other versions of it in the top one-hundred as well.

Posted by: ¡bré! 7th February 2015, 12:29 AM

This album just keeps getting pushed back up every few weeks seemingly! Wonder if it'll finally make the top 10 this time (or just stall outside again like First Aid Kit last week).

Prodigy, Noël Gallagher & James Bay preorders looking like decent first week sales!

Posted by: Mart!n 8th February 2015, 08:33 PM

Pretty much Kodaline will be the #1 album I should imagine, with Jack Savoretti at #2.

As for the compilation chart, expect huge sales for Fifty Shades Of Grey

Posted by: The Hit Parade 9th February 2015, 12:18 AM

Jack Savoretti at #2? Where have all his fans suddenly appeared from since his last album peaked at 109?

Posted by: ¡bré! 9th February 2015, 12:29 AM

#2 seems a bit steep but I could see this album doing fairly well. He has Radio 2 backing and whatnot. His album came out a day early on iTunes, currently sitting at #9.

Sam Smith is probably going to be the #1 album next week he has won 4 Grammys last night, damn Kodaline are going to miss out on a #1 album bugger!!! bugger!!! bugger!!!

Posted by: ¡bré! 9th February 2015, 12:58 PM

The Grammys don't have THAT big an impact on the UK album chart. I'd be very surprised if they gave Sam enough of a boost to beat Kodaline's first week sales...

Top 100 update (09/02/2015, 22:00)

That 'The Football Ramble' thing at #8 is only one track but costs £1.99 and is over an hour and a half long. Very peculiar. Presuming it'll count as an album so I have coloured it red. Lucie Silvas' EP is 5 tracks which seems to be a weird limbo situation which contributes to neither chart but I shall colour that red as well.

Aside from that Kodaline are of course the main new album in contention for #1, hope they do get it to make up for missing out with the debut. Would be really UGH if Sam Smith does just go back to #1. Beck also feeling the Grammys impact returning as high as #22 and N.W.A are in the top 40 due presumably to the upcoming film about them (source: Googled them). A decent crop of other new entries besides Kodaline so we should at least have more top 40 new entries than we did last week.

Other pre-orders: The Prodigy #125 (another new track needed about now plz), Madonna #138, Kelly Clarkson #140, Rymez 'The Love Story' EP #142, Shawn Mendes #152, a second version of Madonna #156 (cheaper so presumably standard but neither are tagged), Ne-Yo #166.

Really impressive for Lucie Silvas considering she's not been active in years Won't chart overall of course, whether it would count or not, but nice to see it on the verge of the top 50 here.

Top 100 update (10/02/2015, 22:00)

Sam Smith's top version already overtaking Kodaline and the second version also just behind? :/ Maybe Sam actually will beat them to #1. How annoying.

Great to see the Rebel Heart pre-orders doing much better now. Mike Tyson effect.

As for Kodaline, it does seem likely that they'll miss the top spot - #19 on Amazon whilst Sam Smith is #1 and only 2.5k separating the two in the mids. As I mentioned in the SCP thread, I believe their first album was a midweek #1 despite not making it officially so they've been really unlucky!

Top 100 update (12/02/2015, 22:00)

The Four Owls are apparently an 'ornithological-themed' UK hip hop group. Okay then

Florence pre-order off to a great start, presumably only put up a couple of hours ago

More pre-orders: Kingsland Road 'We Are The Young' #117 (they still exist?!? I'm shocked they didn't split after the single bombed), Incubus 'Trust Fall Side A' EP #143, Charli XCX #152, Slaves 'Are You Satisfied?' #153 (feels like ages since their first album!), Texas #155, The Wombats #160, Marina And The Diamonds #171 (leak effect), Imagine Dragons standard #172, Paul Weller 'Saturns Pattern' (SIC SIC SIC SIC SIC) #186.

Prodigy & James Bay's albums sales are goin to be HUGE!!

Posted by: The Hit Parade 12th February 2015, 10:37 PM

Just looked up some Four Owls tracks. I was kind of hoping they'd actually be rapping more about the the birds, but their main lyrical agenda seems to be "we used to smoke lots of weed" and "we're really good at rapping". To be fair they're not bad but they're not very unusual either.
Suspect I may be the only person who's a member of Buzzjack and the British Trust for Ornithology, but I'm willing to be proved wrong on that.

Posted by: ¡bré! 13th February 2015, 12:32 AM

Ah that's disappointing, I was hoping from the description I'd read of them that they'd made a concept album about birds.

Top 100 update (13/02/2015, 22:30)

Drake's new album is almost certainly the real #1 but still not showing up in the feed at the moment. Florence got as high as #2 earlier <3 Kodaline already out of the top 10 though? Eek.

A small impact from the death of Steve Strange with a Visage compilation showing up in the low top 100.

More pre-orders: Madonna #102, Texas #109, Young Guns 'Ones And Zeros' #110, 'BRIT Awards 2015' #123, The Prodigy #128, Thunder 'Wonder Days' #147, Ibeyi 'Ibeyi' #170, Nightwish 'Endless Forms Most Beautiful' #191.

In regards to #1 albums of 2015, it seems to be a repeat of the #1 singles in the middle of last year - no album so far has spent two or more consecutive weeks at #1 this year and it doesn't seem like it's going to end soon with Imagine Dragons probably going to #1 this week, followed by Sam Smith again, Noel Gallagher and Madonna, taking the run up to 11.

At least the possible upcoming #1s should have good sales rather than reaching #1 due to lack of competition.

New artist album releases this week

Charting on pre-orders alone

It's fishy. I was remembering when 'I Ruin You' by the Veronica's suddenly got a boost after 2/3 days because the preorders only just got factored on iTunes. Could something be happening with the new albums this week?

Posted by: Joe. 17th February 2015, 11:05 AM

Charli's album already down to #13. That's pretty underwhelming. I thought having two hits would have given it decent sales.

Ouch for Charli. That's so sad for her. Her album is really strong, it's a shame mediocre pop acts like Meghan Trainor can get a number 1 but this critically acclaimed album is doing nothing. I think the artwork is really awful, it's too garish.

Posted by: Destroyer 18th February 2015, 08:37 AM

Bat out of hell at 30 on iTunes, does that mean it will likely be back in the official album top 100 on Sunday? I'm not sure what effect iTunes has on album chart, thanks

Posted by: girl_from_oz 18th February 2015, 01:12 PM

Charli XCX is amazing, the latest single is the weak link of the album and maybe people aren't buying her album cause they were expecting similar songs on the album

Posted by: The Hit Parade 18th February 2015, 08:59 PM

Isn't Bat Out Of Hell always in the Top 100?

Meat Loaf isn't top 100 ALL the time, usually just when the album is cheap (as it is again now )

Top 100 update (22/02/2015, 22:30)

Chris Brown/Tyga could potentially be near the top of the early midweeks, though of course the BRITs effect will defreshen things again so I'd fully predict another top 3 of Ed, Sam and George in some order or another. Other decently high new entries should come from Big Sean, Black Star Riders and Public Service Broadcasting.

Other pre-orders: Emile Haynie 'We Fall' #117, Public Service Broadcasting 'The Race For Space' #142 (certain BuzzJack posters dead), The Prodigy #154, Madonna #165, Rene LaVice #167, Black Star Riders #188.

pre-order for Modestep's new album at #102, retaining that relevance it seems

Posted by: ¡brébycakes! 24th February 2015, 12:52 AM

Modestep's pre-order getting higher than Everything Everything's oooops.

Looks like there was an issue with the pre-orders again this week? Chris Brown and Big Sean both climbed pretty slowly.

Posted by: ► ▲ N 24th February 2015, 07:03 AM

Modestep still have a fanbase?!?

in terms of 'dubstep' acts Nero are far far better, really hope we hear about their 2nd album shortly.
