Emeli Sande is on track for a third Top 10 album with Real Life (Virgin EMI) at #4, followed by The Pixies’ Beneath the Eyrie (Infectious) at #5.
The Lumineers are new at #6 with their third album, III (Decca), Korn’s The Nothing (Roadrunner) is just behind at #7 and Charli XCX’s Charli (Atlantic) starts at #10.
On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweeks, Grande, Cyrus and Del Rey’s “Don’t Call Me Angel” (Polydor/RCA/Republic) is in the lead for #1 on Friday.
