Newcomer
Wet Leg is heading toward #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart with its self-titled debut on
Domino. Over on singles,
Jack Harlow and
Harry Styles are competing for the top spot.
At the halfway point, Wet Leg is outselling its closest competition by 4:1. The pair's debut is ahead on physical sales and is the most-downloaded album of the week so far.
Father John Misty’s
Chloë and the Next 20th Century (
Bella Union) is also new at #2 today, as is
Jack White’s
Fear of the Dawn (
Third Man), at #3.
Kae Tempest has the final new entry in today’s Top 5 with what could be its first Top 10 album,
The Line Is a Curve (
Fiction), at #4.
Elsewhere in the Top 10,
Camila Cabello’s
Familia (
Epic) starts at #7, and
Joe Satriani is #9 with
The Elephants of Mars (
Edel).
On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweeks, Harlow’s “First Class” (
Atlantic) leads the race, with Styles close behind with last week’s chart-topper, “As It Was” (
Columbia).
Pink Floyd’s “Hey, Hey, Rise Up!” (
Parlophone), released to benefit Ukraine and featuring Ukrainian
Andriy Khlyvnyuk, could debut at #5. If it holds onto its midweek peak, the track will be the band’s first Top 10 single in 43 years; “Another Brick in the Wall” hit #1 in 1979.
“Crazy What Love Can Do” (
Warner Music U.K.) from
David Guetta,
Ella Henderson and
Becky Hill could also be on track for a Top 20 debut; it’s currently #16.
