The boyband hang onto the Irish top spot this week...
Simon Cowell-created pop act One Direction remain at the top of the Irish chart this week with Take Me Home.
This is the UK/Irish act's second album - it follows the five-piece's massive 2011 debut, Up All Night. Read Celina Murphy's review of Take Me Home in next week's issue of HP.
Straight in at No. 2 in the chart is Barbados-born R&B singer Rihanna, with latest offering Unapologetic (also reviewed in next week's mag), while UK pop act Little Mix are a new entry too, at this week's No. 3 with DNA.
