The View Top UK Album Charts (TGTBTQ At #2)!

The young Scots have the number one album this week with their debut release, Hats Off To The Buskers! Who saw this one coming?

One year ago this week, Arctic Monkeys pulled off the same exact feat - although that debut broke all sorts of UK records, most importantly, the most albums sold in a week ever, period, done - The View barely beat out Damon Albarn's new project, The Good The Bad & The Queen for the top spot.

Also...

BOTH BANDS WILL BE COMING TO NYC SOON (albeit separately):

March 12 - The Good The Bad & The Queen @ Webster Hall (not on sale yet)
March 20 - The View @ Bowery Ballroom (not sold out yet but surely will be any day now)

MP3s: The View - Skag Trendy + The Good The Bad & The Queen - Behind The Sun
