[raliverpool]

20 year old Canadian TikTok youtube sensation Tate McRae makes the the top of the album combi chart for her very first week week, with her second album.

There are 3 new entries from Lankum; Holly Walker; Nicki Minaj
There are 1 re-entries this week from Sophie Ellis-Bextor

New chart peaks come from Tate McRae; The Killers; Cher; Sofia Kourtesis; Spector

New Releases on Friday 22nd December came from .... . its christmas, I hope everyone on Haven has a good holiday season.

Note: For albums tied on points, if one album has been charted by more posters than another, then that album with the most posters will be given the higher position. And spelling pedants please be aware I've got fed up with the increased upper and lower case letters with album titles and artist monikers where they should not be, so I've reverted back to standard English grammar.

[blondini]

Those year end music polls must be doing that for Lankum (my #1 several months ago).

[blondini]

^ Well hours later i've only just discovered the Lankum offshoot band Oxn.
I will be making my last charts of the year early (Boxing Day) so i can get them in my Year Ends.


Same female vocalist Radie Peat. Same "doom folk" sound.

[Mark]

Thank you for continuing to compile these every week.
It's appreciated.
Merry Christmas
