Eminem reigns again on the U.K. chart with The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) (via Interscope).
The Rap God’s latest LP enters a second week atop the Official U.K. Albums Chart, published Friday, July 26, holding off Olivia Rodrigo’s resurgent Guts.
The Death of Slim Shady is Em’s 12th studio album, and his 11th leader in the U.K.
Meanwhile, Rodrigo’s sophomore album Guts (Geffen) flies 22-2 following the release of the deluxe “spilled” edition on vinyl. Guts logged a single week at No. 1 following its release last year. Rodrigo’s record-setting debut album Sour, from 2021, also enjoys a lift on the latest frame. It’s up 24-23 in its 166th week on the chart.
The top new entry on the latest tally is Heavy Jelly (BMG), the fourth studio album from Soft Play, the punk act formerly known as Slaves. It’s new at No. 3. As Slaves, the rockers (Isaac Holman and Laurie Vincent) landed top 10s with Are You Satisfied? (No. 8), Take Control (No. 6) and Acts of Fear and Love (No. 8).
Also new to the top 10 is Glass Animals’ I Love You So F***ing Much (Polydor), new at No. 5. It’s the second top tier effort from the Oxford, England-formed pop-rock act following 2020’s Dreamland, which peaked at No. 2 and housed the global hit “Heat Waves.”
Further down the list, British heavy metal icons Deep Purple dig out a 26th U.K. top 40 with =1 (Ear Music), their 23rd studio album. It’s new at No. 12.
And finally, Cardiff, Wales seven-piece Los Campesinos! makes a long overdue appearance in the U.K. top 40 with All Hell (Heart Swells), its seventh studio release. All Hell is new at No. 14. Until now, the group’s best on the national survey was No. 72 for 2008’s How On Now Youngster.
