Bruno Mars straight in at the top of the Irish album chart

Hawaiian soul singer Bruno Mars has entered the Irish album chart at No. 1 with his debut Doo-Wops & Hooligans. Last week, the singer (whose 'Grenade' is also at the top of the singles chart) sold out his upcoming Olympia show in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it eight minutes.

R&B singer Rihanna drops to No. 2 with Loud, while Imelda May and The Script fly the Irish flag at No. 3 and 4 respectively.

There's a new entry from UK rock trio White Lies (read an interview with them in next week's issue of Hot Press), whose sophomore offering Ritual is this week's No. 7. See below to download HP fave 'Bigger Than Us', plus watch the boys' short film Ritual.

Rock legends Pearl Jam are also a new entry this week, they are at No. 41 with Live On Ten Legs (reviewed in next week's issue too - don't say we don't spoil you!).

Meanwhile in the Indie chart, Adele remains in the top spot with 19, The Coronas' Tony Was An Ex-Con is at No. 2, and Villagers are in third place with Becoming a Jackal.
