All change at the top of the Irish Albums Chart.
The Irish Albums Chart gets a total makeover this week, with seven new entries in the Top 15.
At the very top, former Westlife star Shane Filan sees his second album Right Here enter the chart with a golden bullet. It improves on the No. 3 chart placing of his debut solo record two years ago.
He fends off stiff competition from current Hot Press cover stars Keywest, who have been shifting plenty of units all week but just missed out on No. 1 in the final count.
Dance titans Disclosure have to settle for bronze – their second album Caracal debuts at No. 3.
Just below that is another new entry – CHVRCHES' Every Open Eye. We'll be chatting to the Glaswegians about that very album in an upcoming issue.
Ed Sheeran is the one veteran survivor in the Top 5, with his X rounding it off.
New Order's new Music Complete is at No. 6, just above last week's No. 2, David Gilmour's Rattle That Lock.
Kodaline, Lana Del Rey (last week's biggest seller) and The Weeknd follow, before we get a No. 11 entry from Girl Band's spectacular debut Holding Hands With Jamie. The guys are interviewed in our current issue.
Any other new business? Eagles founding member Don Henley sees his Cass County pop up at No. 14.
