I may regret this but i'm posting my Friday chart (normally posted on a Saturday) a few days early.

TONY'S ALBUM CHART 20th JANUARY 2017
1 NEW Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross - Patriots Day (OST) SPOTIFY
From the upcoming film about the Boston marathon bombing. Their third album in just over 3 months (including Before The Flood and NIN) and the one that finally gets to number one after two runners-up places in a row!
2 1 Grand Blanc - Memoires Vives (3 weeks; peak #1)
3 2 Kid Cudi - Passion, Pain and Demon Slayin' (5 weeks; peak #1)
4 NEW Justin Hurwitz and La La Land Cast - La La Land (OST) SPOTIFY
OCC seem to think this is a cast album but it's not - that's only half the story. Composer Justin Hurwitz is credited on 8 of the 15 tracks, of which seven are instrumentals. The film is great but slightly over-rated.

The full score.

TONY'S HITS CHART 27th JANUARY 2017
Another busy new year week!
1 NEW Goldfrapp - Anymore AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Black Cherry revisited as a deep dirty groove rules this first sound from the seventh album.
2 1 Slowdive - Star Roving AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (3 weeks; peak #1)
3 NEW Jamiroquai - Automaton VIDEO
Who saw this coming? Every now and then Jay and co unleash a hard-hitting beast of a track - see Deeper Underground (#1 on my chart) - and this one beats both Daft Punk (musically) and Empire Of The Sun (visually) at their own game.
4 NEW The Sounds - Thrill AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Their best single in a decade. This has caused me to catch up on the last few albums.
5 10 Zayn and Taylor Swift - I Don't Wanna Live Forever VIDEO (7 weeks; peak #2)
^That's as racy as the vid gets but it's still hot. Both stars released the vid on their channels with Zayn releasing first but beaten by two million in views.
6 NEW Johann Johannsson - Heptapod B AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
I wish i'd seen the film Arrival sooner - it's the best soundtrack of 2016. *hint*
7 NEW Crystal Fairy - Crystal Fairy AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Filthy riff rock with powerful female vocals.
8 NEW Mew - Carry Me To Safety AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
9 2 Sleaford Mods - B.H.S. (2 weeks; peak #2)
10 4 Arcade Fire with Mavis Staples - I Give You Power (2 weeks; peak #4)
11 5 The Divine Comedy - To The Rescue (2 weeks; peak #5)

14 6 Bright Light Bright Light - Running Back To You (2 weeks; peak #6)
15 15 Taya - Deeper (4 weeks; peak #15)
Banks fans should know this song, so check the link from previous chart.
16 NEW Cat - You Belong To Me AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Catherine from The Pierces.
17 7 Banks - Trainwreck (2 weeks; peak #7)
18 8 Grand Blanc - L'amour Fou (Crazy Love) (4 weeks; peak #1)
19 9 Charlotte Hatherley - A Sign (5 weeks; peak #1)
20 12 Little Mix - Touch (7 weeks; peak #12)
21 NEW Austra - I Love You More Than You Love Yourself VIDEO
22 NEW Crystal Fairy - Chiseler AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
23 NEW Lucie Jones - Never Give Up On You LIVE BBC CLIP
Our entry for Eurovision is a spare un-gimmicky ballad co-written by winner Emmelie De Forest. Our best entry in some years and sung by an X Factor contestant (as were all 6 contenders!). They are all out to buy already if you're interested.
24 NEW Crystal Fairy - Drugs On The Bus AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
25 11 Cappa - I'm Good (7 weeks; peak #2)
26 13 Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Wild Forever (4 weeks; peak #13)

30 20 Kerli - Spirit Animal (4 weeks; peak #15)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
TONY'S ALBUM CHART 27th JANUARY 2017
1 NEW Johann Johannsson - Arrival (OST) SPOTIFY
The same composer and director will be providing us with Blade Runner 2049 later this year - should be amazing. Parts of this score remind of BR, though he says it's not a synthesized work, it's done by layering and distorting vocals. This would have been in my top ten of 2016 i think.
2 NEW The Sounds - Crossing The Rubicon SPOTIFY
I loved their first two albums and saw them live supporting Shiny Toy Guns. I wasn't enamoured enough with the singles from this to buy it and somehow failed to connect with their various sites since. Now catching up and i have to say this is better than i expected.
3 NEW Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs - Feed The Rats SPOTIFY
4 NEW Austra - Future Politics SPOTIFY
5 2 Grand Blanc - Memoires Vives (4 weeks; peak #1)
6 1 Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross - Patriots Day (OST) (2 weeks; peak #1)
7 NEW AFI - AFI (The Blood Album) SPOTIFY
8 7 The XX - I See You (2 weeks; peak #7)
9 3 Kid Cudi - Passion, Pain and Demon Slayin' (6 weeks; peak #1)
10 4 Justin Hurwitz and La La Land Cast - La La Land (OST) (2 weeks; peak #4)
11 5 Justin Hurwitz - La La Land (OST - Score) (2 weeks; peak #5)
12 6 Nine Inch Nails - Not The Actual Events (MA) (6 weeks; peak #2)
13 NEW The Sounds - Weekend SPOTIFY
14 NEW Ronika - Lose My Cool SPOTIFY
15 NEW The Sounds - Something To Die For
Ronika album is a letdown compared to first. The Sounds at #15 (from 2011) is quite ropey and is not on Spotify or Deezer so i had to search for an unofficial stream which i won't link. Weekend is the last album from 2013 - hopefully Thrill is a sign that the next is back on form.

Forget Human, this is his best single - from the 2015 Disfigured EP. Heavy modern blues, not the sanitised version he's peddling to the masses. More in Albums.
20 20 Dancing With Ruby - Animals / Spider (Animals and Arachnids EP) (2 weeks; peak #20)
21 24 Grand Blanc - L'amour Fou (Crazy Love) (7 weeks; peak #1)

29 28 Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs - Sweet Relief (8 weeks; peak #12)
30 NEW "Weird Al" Yankovic - Pac-Man LYRIC VIDEO
This parody of The Beatles' Taxman was an early calling card in 1982 for Al but was prevented from being released by The Beatles' lawyers, now it's finally coming out as part of a box set after being granted permission by Dhani Harrison himself.
Another very quiet week for new releases, with only one brand new song out of the three entries there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TONY'S ALBUM CHART 17th FEBRUARY 2017
1 1 Johann Johannsson - Arrival (OST) SPOTIFY (4 weeks; peak #1) 4 WEEKS AT #1!
2 2 Vanbot - Perfect Storm (2 weeks; peak #2)
3 3 Dancing With Ruby - In The Interest Of Beasts (2 weeks; peak #3)
4 NEW Rag'n'Bone Man - Bluestown (MA) SPOTIFY
From 2012, a straight blues set with a touch of hip hop. His most honest release.
5 NEW Cause Of Accident - Designs SPOTIFY
6 NEW Una Healy - The Waiting Game SPOTIFY
7 NEW Rag'n'Bone Man - Wolves (MA) SPOTIFY
2014 - more like a full album. More hip-hop than Bluestown and heavier than Human.
8 RE White Lies - Friends DELUXE VERSION SPOTIFY (9 weeks; peak #1)
Four new songs on the deluxe.
9 4 Kari Jobe - The Garden (2 weeks; peak #4)
10 5 Elbow - Little Fictions (2 weeks; peak #5)
11 6 The Sounds - Crossing The Rubicon (4 weeks; peak #2)
12 7 Max Richter - Three Worlds: Music from Woolf Works (3 weeks; peak #3)
13 13 Grand Blanc - Memoires Vives (7 weeks; peak #1)
14 11 Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs - Feed The Rats (4 weeks; peak #3)
15 9 Max Richter - The Blue Notebooks (3 weeks; peak #4)
16 8 Sampha - Process (2 weeks; peak #8)
17 12 Austra - Future Politics (4 weeks; peak #4)
18 15 The XX - I See You (5 weeks; peak #7)
19 NEW Rag'n'Bone Man - Human SPOTIFY
Of the 19 tracks on the deluxe about 6 are decent, too much of it is safe and as far from "alternative" as it gets. He went from a risk-taking hard-sounding hip-hop blues / soul singer to a blanded out James Arthur / George Ezra radio artist. Truly a sell out. Jamie N Commons was doing his thing but much better long ago and never got this hype or attention.
20 14 Rose Elinor Dougall - Stellular (3 weeks; peak #8)

TONY'S HITS CHART 24th FEBRUARY 2017
Ellie Goulding, Clare Maguire, Jessie Ware and now...
1 NEW Stevie Parker - Without You VIDEO
Describes herself as "ambient pop" so she may as well be a replacement for both Ellie Goulding and London Grammar given their downturns in quality. This is plaintive and gorgeous and why radio isn't already all over it is a mystery (though it's had some night-time play on Radio 1).
2 NEW Red Mecca - Set In Motion VIDEO
Swedish darkwave synth duo - the male half being a veteran of post-punk who named the act after an influential Cabaret Voltaire album. This latest track is also among their most immediate.
3 1 Orbital - Kinetic 2017 VIDEO (3 weeks; peak #1)
4 2 Vanbot - Collide (Krasnoyarsk) VIDEO (3 weeks; peak #2)
5 NEW Red Mecca - Love and Hate VIDEO
Jan Strandqvist covers his own 80s track by Branda Barn, this time in English and with female vocals.
6 NEW Red Mecca - Skin VIDEO

10 5 Johann Johannsson - Heptapod B (5 weeks; peak #3)
11 NEW Red Mecca - Pictures VIDEO
12 3 Jamiroquai - Automaton (5 weeks; peak #1)
A shame they've had to go down the route of sending the bland Cloud 9 to radio and even "replacing" this with a video for that, this should be all over Radio 1. As a result, i've gone off them again.
13 6 Depeche Mode - Where's The Revolution? (4 weeks; peak #6)
14 NEW Maggie Rogers - On and Off VIDEO
Straddles the alternative / pop line.
15 7 Bleached - Can You Deal? (4 weeks; peak #6)
16 NEW Bea Miller - Burning Bridges AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (language) / I Can't Breathe AUDIO STREAM VIDEO / Song Like You AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (Chapter One: Blue EP)
Billed in order of my liking, the most popular track on this is my least fave.
17 10 Blondie - Fun (4 weeks; peak #10)
18 8 Cat - You Belong To Me (5 weeks; peak #8)
19 9 Slowdive - Star Roving (7 weeks; peak #1)

27 NEW Red Mecca - Animal VIDEO
28 RE Ryan Adams - Doomsday (2 weeks; PEAK)
29 NEW Jarvis Cocker and Chilly Gonzales - Tearjerker AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
From an upcoming concept album about a famed hotel room. They can't seem to decide which order billing they get but i'm going with the sleeve art which credits Jarvis first.
30 NEW Maggie Rogers - Dog Years VIDEO
31 NEW British Sea Power - Bad Bohemian VIDEO
32 12 The Sounds - Thrill (5 weeks; peak #4)
33 14 Mew - Carry Me To Safety (5 weeks; peak #7)

3 NEW Bleached - Welcome The Worms SPOTIFY
4 3 Ryan Adams - Prisoner (2 weeks; peak #3)

TONY'S HITS CHART 10th MARCH 2017
1 NEW Blanche - City Lights VIDEO
And following Stevie we have another act beating London Grammar and the like at their own game. A former Voice contestant Ellie Delvaux is now known as Blanche and will represent Belgium at Eurovision with this mainly low register piece of sophisti-pop. I'm worried as to how they'll replicate this live (it was an in-house selection and wasn't played live to the public) as she goes high register at the end with the low register playing behind her.

42 NEW First Aid Kit - You Are The Problem Here AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (language)
Angry song about rape injustice for International Women's Day last Wednesday. Coincidence(?) that i'm charting it behind the Broadchurch song regarding rape at 41.

---------------------------------------------------------
TONY'S ALBUM CHART 10th MARCH 2017
1 NEW Sleaford Mods - English Tapas SPOTIFY
Their best yet, even has singing on it! The second half is particularly great.
2 NEW Charli XCX - Number 1 Angel (mixtape) SPOTIFY
Released Down Under 10 hours before UK so that's how i'm justifying charting it a week early. 4 songs here are notably brilliant, with Emotional the skyscraping best, followed by tracks 6, 7 and 9 (the Abra one that is like Rihanna doing darkwave).
3 1 Red Mecca - Electricity (3 weeks; peak #1)
4 2 Red Mecca - Covered With Rain (3 weeks; peak #2)
5 NEW John Joseph Brill - False Names (MA) SPOTIFY
6 3 Bleached - Welcome The Worms (2 weeks; peak #3)
7 4 Ryan Adams - Prisoner (3 weeks; peak #3)
8 NEW Blanck Mass - World Eater SPOTIFY
Seems a bit odd that OCC list this on the dance chart, it has more in common with Nine Inch Nails!
9 NEW R. Missing - Unsummering (MA) SPOTIFY
10 NEW Abra - Princess (MA) SPOTIFY
Newest release.
11 NEW Grandaddy - Last Place SPOTIFY
New album.
12 NEW Grandaddy - The Sophtware Slump SPOTIFY (2011 Deluxe Edition)
The celebrated 2001 set. I have to say nothing lives up to The Crystal Lake.
13 NEW Abra - Rose SPOTIFY
14 NEW Abra - BLQ Velvet (MA) SPOTIFY
15 5 The Golden Filter - Still // Alone (2 weeks; peak #5)
16 6 Crystal Fairy - Crystal Fairy (2 weeks; peak #6)
17 7 Dreadzone - Dread Times (3 weeks; peak #4)
18 8 Red Mecca - You Were Never Here (3 weeks; peak #5)
19 NEW Ed Sheeran - ÷ (Divide) SPOTIFY
It's better than the second album. I like Eraser, New Man and the one where he thinks he's Paul Simon. Not sure why he's trying to be Irish on a couple of songs (even stealing the title of a famous song with Galway Girl) but it charmed the Irish themselves.
20 NEW Dia Frampton - Bruises SPOTIFY
One of the most interesting Voice US contestants is now sadly quite bland, with almost all of her quirks ironed out.

TONY'S HITS CHART 24th MARCH 2017
1 1 Blanche - City Lights VIDEO (3 weeks; peak #1) 3 WEEKS AT #1!
2 4 Svala - Paper VIDEO (2 weeks; PEAK)
My first EVER Eurovision top 2! (I came close in 2010 with Malcolm Lincoln's Siren at 2 and Anna Bergendahl's This Is My Life at 3).
I should also say that City Lights is my first ESC chart-topper although my charts only started in 1993 so they don't include ABBA.
3 NEW The Birthday Massacre - Counterpane FAN LYRIC VIDEO
4 2 Stevie Parker - Without You VIDEO (5 weeks; peak #1)
Now on Radio X playlist. But it deserves mainstream radio play.
5 3 Goldfrapp - Ocean AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (3 weeks; peak #3)
6 5 Red Mecca - Set In Motion (5 weeks; peak #2)
7 7 Lorde - Green Light (4 weeks; peak #7)
8 6 John Joseph Brill - I'm Not Alright (3 weeks; peak #6)

11 14 Tennis - Modern Woman (2 weeks; PEAK)
12 9 Orbital - Kinetic 2017 (7 weeks; peak #1)
13 13 Kim Walker-Smith - Throne Room (3 weeks; peak #13)
14 NEW Karen Elson - Call Your Name VIDEO
Supermodel singer splits from Jack White and his label and is suddenly very good. Sounds like the swirling adult pop of The Pierces.
15 11 Sleaford Mods - Moptop (3 weeks; peak #5)
16 12 Scarlet Sails - Boy, You're Wrong (2 weeks; peak #12)
17 NEW Blondie - Long Time AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Dev Hynes helps on a track that wants you to think of Heart Of Glass (personally i think such blatant reminders of one's own past aren't needed, it just highlights how inferior the new track is in comparison and seems desperate. Maria was self-referencing but not like this).
18 15 Tennis - My Emotions Are Blinding (2 weeks; peak #15)
19 17 Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Death Of Love (3 weeks; peak #14)
20 21 Tinashe - Flame (2 weeks; PEAK)
21 16 Vaults - Hurricane (10 weeks; peak #13)
22 NEW Goldfrapp - Moon In Your Mouth AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Doesn't work as well as synth-stormer Ocean on its own and the title is too similar to a Bjork song.
23 RE Depeche Mode - Where's The Revolution? (7 weeks; peak #6)
24 NEW Drake - Passionfruit AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (language)
Surprise! A genuinely good track from his "playlist" More Life.
25 33 Jade Jackson - Finish Line (2 weeks; PEAK)
26 29 Jana Burceska - Dance Alone (3 weeks; peak #19)
27 RE Jarvis Cocker and Chilly Gonzales - Tearjerker LIVE SESSION VIDEO (2 weeks; PEAK)

6 4 Crywolf - Skeletons (MA) (2 weeks; peak #4)
7 5 Laura Marling - Semper Femina (2 weeks; peak #5)
8 NEW Drake - More Life (A Playlist by October Firm) SPOTIFY
The subtitle is on the "sleeve" only, i only post it here to credit that it's a "playlist" and not a mixtape or album. It's a lot better than the over-rated over-streamed Views though still not quite as great as he was when he broke.
9 6 Red Mecca - Electricity (5 weeks; peak #1)
10 NEW Counterfeit - Together We Are Stronger SPOTIFY
Nothing as great as Enough on Jamie Campbell Bower's rock band's album.
Back to bare minimum of top 30 singles, top 10 albums this week. Cutting out most of the multiples as it's bad enough seeing them on the official charts.

TONY'S HITS CHART 7th APRIL 2017
1 3 Selena Gomez - Only You AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (2 weeks; PEAK)
I finished 13 Reasons Why on Tuesday and i've been haunted by it since. :cry: I'm puzzled as to why this song hasn't got any traction at all, with Selena's fans, the show's fans or fans of the song. :-? It's not an "official" single but when did that stop such a song getting in the charts? Even the Lord Huron song from the song soundtrack is more popular on iTunes. More on the soundtrack(s) in a bit and later... Selena's first #1 after hitting #2 twice.
2 2 Marnie - Lost Maps VIDEO (YouTube link) (2 weeks; peak #2)
3 1 Blanche - City Lights VIDEO (5 weeks; peak #1)
4 4 The Birthday Massacre - Counterpane AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (3 weeks; peak #3)
5 NEW Banks - Crowded Places AUDIO STREAM VIDEO

Full length original version of his theme to 13 Reasons Why.
7 6 Clan Of Xymox - Loneliness (2 weeks; peak #6)
8 7 Stevie Parker - Without You (7 weeks; peak #1)
9 8 Goldfrapp - Ocean (5 weeks; peak #3)
10 NEW Roman Remains - The Killing Moon AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
The best use of music on 13 Reasons Why is this electronica cover of Echo and The Bunnymen.
11 5 Svala - Paper (4 weeks; peak #2)
12 10 Night Drive - Rise and Fall (2 weeks; peak #10)
13 9 Red Mecca - Set In Motion (7 weeks; peak #2)

Electronica duo with ex members of Bird.

23 14 Rebel and A Basketcase - Today (4 weeks; peak #8)
24 NEW Harry Styles - Sign Of The Times AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
Not Prince or The Belle Stars OR the over-hyped "Bowie classic rock" of the press release but like Zayn was, it's his first entry on my chart.

40 NEW The Unthanks - What Can A Song Do To You? AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
---------------------------------------------------------------
TONY'S ALBUM CHART 7th APRIL 2017
1 NEW Goldfrapp - Silver Eye SPOTIFY
It's v good, it's not a classic.
2 NEW Eskmo - 13 Reasons Why (OTVST - Score) SPOTIFY
He produced the Selena version of Yazoo (also featured here) and the score is downtempo electronica. The other soundtrack is mainly of already released songs and so doesn't qualify for my chart. Though it leaves off a lot of songs that you can find on YouTube. I made my own alternate soundtrack on Spotify.
3 NEW Nelly Furtado - The Ride SPOTIFY
Not all good but it's a nice set.
4 NEW Clan Of Xymox - Days Of Black SPOTIFY
5 NEW Scott Matthews - Home Part 2 SPOTIFY

12 3 Tennis - Yours Conditionally (4 weeks; peak #3)

3 3 Nelly Furtado - The Ride (2 weeks; peak #3)
4 NEW Ulver - The Assassination Of Julius Caesar SPOTIFY
Seems Daniel O'Sullivan's synth tendencies in his other groups Miracle and Mothlite have rubbed off on this group - who were once black metal and seemed to settle on proggy folk.
5 6 Charli XCX - Number 1 Angel (mixtape) (6 weeks; peak #1)
6 4 Clan Of Xymox - Days Of Black (2 weeks; peak #4)
7 7 Sleaford Mods - English Tapas (6 weeks; peak #1)

Francesca Battistelli is a guest but this is underwhelming for them.
24 NEW Carolynne (Poole) - Coming Back To Me (MA) SPOTIFY
25 NEW Pentatonix - PTX Vol IV - Classics (MA) SPOTIFY
Their version of BoRhap is beyond awful. Take On Me, though...

TONY'S HITS CHART 21st APRIL 2017

3 3 Blanche - City Lights VIDEO (7 weeks; peak #1)
4 NEW The Darling Buds - Evergreen VIDEO
"Blonde pop" indie legends are back! This is considerably better than any recent Primitives song.
5 NEW Charli XCX with MØ - 3AM (Pull Up) LYRIC VIDEO (language)
The lyric video makes it a "single" for my purposes. Charli enters 4 places higher than her ex bf did last week.
6 4 The Birthday Massacre - Counterpane (5 weeks; peak #3)
7 5 Banks - Crowded Places (3 weeks; peak #5)
8 9 Royal Blood - Lights Out (2 weeks; PEAK)

And that's the latest grat from her upcoming album The Cure.

25 RE Animotion - Last Time VIDEO (6 weeks; peak #20)
:lol: I couldn't resist! It's a shame there isn't a fourth "time" song!

27 15 Night Drive - Rise and Fall (4 weeks; peak #10)
28 16 Ulver - Nemoralia (2 weeks; peak #16)
New Hurts song / video is all kinds of reductive (as Madge once said) and hasn't charted. I mention this under Ulver on purpose to direct your listening.
29 17 St. Jude The Obscure - Wonders Of Youth (3 weeks; peak #14)
30 NEW Lana Del Rey with The Weeknd - Lust For Life Pseudo VIDEO
What's with the stealing of classic song titles lately? :lol: It's better than most recent things by either artist.

6 NEW Hayseed Dixie - Free Your Mind... and Your Grass Will Follow SPOTIFY
Bluegrass band go all social commentary with their latest set of covers and originals, and largely devoid of comedy. The world is surreal enough, it seems. Most of it works but skip track 1.

TONY'S HITS CHART 28th APRIL 2017
1 NEW Kawehi - Anthem VIDEO
From 2014. Hawaiian singer and live-looping one-woman-band. This beatbox-pop track was created entirely from her voice - as emphasised in the video. It's like Imogen Heap going on a summer holiday with Pentatonix. The version in the video is much longer than the version on her mini-album. More later...
2 1 Selena Gomez - Only You LYRIC VIDEO with show clips (5 weeks; peak #1)
3 4 The Darling Buds - Evergreen VIDEO (2 weeks; PEAK)
4 13 LPX - Tremble LYRIC VIDEO (2 weeks; PEAK)

7 NEW Goldfrapp - Systemagic VIDEO

10 5 Charli XCX with MØ - 3AM (Pull Up) (2 weeks; peak #5)
11 NEW Kawehi - Neda VIDEO (contains actual violent death footage) / Lucy / Mark (Vox EP) DEEZER EP AUDIO STREAM
Neda and Lucy are about real deaths that have occurred - the Neda video description explains itself, Lucy is a response to the Connecticut school shooting of 2012 with proceeds going to OneRepublic's fund for Sandy Hook.
12 32 Nadine Shah - Out The Way AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (2 weeks; PEAK)
The biggest climb in a great week for them. This is what PJ Harvey should be sounding as good as.
13 NEW Allie X - Paper Love LYRIC VIDEO
14 6 The Birthday Massacre - Counterpane (6 weeks; peak #3)
15 8 Royal Blood - Lights Out (3 weeks; peak #8)
16 NEW Kawehi - I'd Never Tell VIDEO / Our Days DEEZER EP AUDIO STREAM
Two tracks from the From Kansas, With Love EP.
17 NEW Whethan with Charli XCX - Love Gang LYRIC VIDEO
Whethan is a guy called Ethan. Much better than her track with Mura Masa.
18 NEW AJR - Weak VIDEO / Remix with Louisa Johnson AUDIO STREAM VIDEO
The new Louisa mix got me into this. This is what OneRepublic should be sounding as good as.
19 7 Banks - Crowded Places (4 weeks; peak #5)
20 9 Eskmo - Oh In This World Of Dread, Carry On (4 weeks; peak #6)
21 14 Christina Grimmie - Invisible / I Only Miss You When I Breathe / The Game (Side B EP) (2 weeks; peak #14)

35 40 Stu Garrard with John Mark McMillan - Heaven Is Around You (2 weeks; PEAK)
36 17 Stevie Parker - The Cure (6 weeks; peak #7)
37 NEW Blondie - Fragments AUDIO STREAM VIDEO (language)
This cover of a YouTube artist is a cursory inclusion, fine as an album closer but not really as a single (it's a grat).

39 29 St. Jude The Obscure - Wonders Of Youth (4 weeks; peak #14)

TONY'S ALBUM CHART 28th APRIL 2017
1 NEW Kawehi - Robot Heart (MA) DEEZER (Spotify is a pain again)
2 NEW Kawehi - Evolution (MA) DEEZER
On this release, she goes by her YouTube handle I Am Kawehi. As you can see, sometimes that moniker is on her artwork. For simplicity and consistency, i'm sticking with the mononym.
3 1 Goldfrapp - Silver Eye (4 weeks; peak #1)
4 3 Charli XCX - Number 1 Angel (mixtape) (8 weeks; peak #1)
5 4 Nelly Furtado - The Ride (4 weeks; peak #3)

7 6 Hayseed Dixie - Free Your Mind... and Your Grass Will Follow (2 weeks; peak #6)
8 NEW Kawehi - Interaktiv (MA) DEEZER
Her latest release isn't as good.
9 5 Ulver - The Assassination Of Julius Caesar (3 weeks; peak #4)
10 NEW Steps - Tears On The Dancefloor DEEZER
Not expecting it, but i'd be pleased if Happy was a single as it's the hardest sounding track they've done (bit Depeche, Infernal).
11 NEW Angaleena Presley - Wrangled DEEZER
12 2 Eskmo - 13 Reasons Why (OTVST - Score) (4 weeks; peak #2)
13 NEW Kim Walker-Smith - On My Side DEEZER
14 NEW Stu Garrard - Beatitudes DEEZER
15 NEW Imelda May - Life. Love. Flesh. Blood DEEZER
If only her new sound was as sizzling as her new look. Sadly, the best tracks - rockers The Longing and Game Changer are shoved to the back of the deluxe edition and most of the rest is safe and bland.

1 29 Blondie - Long Time VIDEO (5 weeks; PEAK)
Huge climb upon hearing the album (i will have the CD later in the week and will chart it next week).

11 9 Blanche - City Lights (9 weeks; peak #1)
Really upsetting to see her getting slated for her rehearsals. So she's doomed to fail because - seemingly - the performance can't match the record and the brutal YouTube comments section make harsh judgements based on 30 seconds of footage. :cry: PLEASE DON'T POST ANY NON-POSITIVE COMMENTS HERE. I DON'T WANT TO SEE THEM. An unprecedented (for me) two months of supporting the best song in years and this is what happens...

The b-side My Monster (Johnny Marr song also on the album) is much better.

Stunning synth track from ex member of Ash and Bat For Lashes' live band. Was released early on Christmas Eve and played on Natasha Khan's 6 Music stint at the weekend. Her solo music was never this good.
