Not even Bon Iver can stop her...
Another week, another chart-topping position for London songstress Adele. 21 continues it's impressively lengthy reign at the top of the Irish Indie charts in the face of stiff competition from Wisconsin's Bon Iver, with their excellent sophomore self-titled effort going straight in at No. 2, knocking Adele's debut 19 down one spot to No. 3. Bon Iver may take some consolation from the re-charting of debut album For Emma, Forever Ago, which returns to chart at No. 20.
Elsewhere, the domino effect is in full flow as Arctic Monkeys' Suck It And See and Ryan Sheridan's The Day You Live Forever each fall one place to No. 4 and 5 respectively. Moving in the other direction, the Ivor Novello-winning Villagers climb a mighty five places to take the No. 6 position with Becoming A Jackal.
