AUDIO VERTIGO also tops the Official Vinyl Albums Chart, the best-selling record of the week on wax, and Official Record Store Chart, proving the most-purchased physical LP of the past seven days in independent UK record shops.

In at Number 2 is Future and Metro Boomin’s first full-length collaborative project WE DON’T TRUST YOU.

Missouri multihyphenate Boomin’s 2022 record HEROES & VILLAINS managed a Number 3 best.
