Wonder if any other singles will be pushed or sent to radio at least.

 

Radio 1 have given Sundial a couple of plays in the last few days so I’m guessing that that’s probably the next single!

I'd say it's too soon to say tbh. Apricots is still on R1's playlist. Saku has just been added by 6 Music and given a music video so surely it would be that if anything is chosen.
Wow yes please. That’s thanks to Jade that is! :P

:lol: great to see it having some commercial success!

 

So I had to check this out after loving all of 'Atlas', 'Saku', 'Apricots' (eventually!) and 'Sundial'. What stood out to me most was the back-to-back of 'Lido' and 'X' which I see has already been mentioned by lewis haha - one moment I was in awe of the former's beauty and the next I found it hard to sit still during a bendy bop. It does flow really well in general though with that acting as a bit of a jumpstart. Really great mood music. I would not be mad at an entire project of Bicep featuring Clara La San tbh. Aside from those mentioned, 'Fir' and 'Hawk' were really big standouts for me too. I'll have to invest in the orange vinyl when I get paid on Wednesday!

 

I need to go back and check out the previous album as I loved 'JUST' back in 2015 but never paid enough attention to the self-titled era for some reason.

thought Apricots may have had a chance to go top 40 this week, but it's now deflated completely on Spotify and is out of the top 100 ;/ so no chance
#1 in the mids, 103 copies ahead of BMTH

oh yay! should at least be top 5 easily by Friday then I'd hope.

 

in singles update; Apricots is #36, Atlas is #66, Cazenove at #74

Great result so far. I'm not sure whether it will hold on, we'll need to see how far ahead of the albums that have already been out a week or two before we can decide that.

I don't think BMTH are likely to overtake them (belated physical releases like this are always extremely frontloaded for obvious reasons) so it'd be more relevant to know how far they are ahead of Barry Gibb - I did have a very good feeling they'd be contending for the top 2 based on their first day streaming numbers (the only question mark was what their physical sales would be like which is harder to guess) so great to see that confirmed anyway! All fingers crossed for a #1.

 

Would really love to see 'Atlas' belatedly making the top 100 as well - I won't hold my breath given their streaming numbers did die down pretty quickly but #66 is a reasonably comfortable position at this stage, unless there is more than the usual missing data.

 

EDIT: the sales are added now - Bicep and BMTH are both very comfortably ahead of Barry (and both not far off his total from last week) so I'd say they're looking very comfortable to get the #1 album unless BMTH hold up a lot better than I am expecting them to!

I'm pretty confident this will be #1

With BMTH being a belated physical, they're gonna get few streams and few downloads, and with shops being closed cannot see them getting many more physicals either as sure most of their sales were preorders added on Fri

yeah now that the sales are in, this is 100% sticking at #1. it's outselling BMTH by hundreds on a daily basis.
fantastic news, it's been long time since dance music album was #1.... but Prodigy actually I don't remember any "not that commercial" album that went to #1

just received my copy of clean vinyl.

 

Shame there's no booklet inside but the vinyl look gorgeous

Today's update sees Isles still at #1, about 500 copies ahead of BMTH! Apricots might be inched out of the Top 40 though come Friday, probably by Glass Animals if they continue to climb on Spotify.
It's gonna be a great achievement for them, Im confident they will hold on now
Helped the cause out today as promised :cheer: I never thought they'd have a genuine shot at #1 before the first mids and now here we are, wow *.*

Meli (I), which is currently only available on the deluxe vinyl, is going out for free download tomorrow for anyone that has purchased a copy of their album. I assume this is going to those who have only bought direct from their store

So I’m now going to end up with 3 versions of this as recordstore have had a problem obtaining the signed deluxe I ordered, instead they’re sending the signed picture disc and the deluxe to make up for it. Plus the purple version I drunk ordered from VMP too :lol:

 

Really excited about finding out whether this is #1 today. It's so rare that an album like this has such success, they will be joining a pretty exclusive list of dance/electronic acts to get a #1 album.
