Current Hot Press cover stars The Script continue their unbroken streak of Number Ones on the Official Irish Albums Chart this week – with Tales From The Script: Greatest Hits debuting at the top of the chart.

The retrospective release, which spans 13 years of chart success, features tracks from across their chart-topping LPs, including: The Script (2008), Science & Faith (2010), #3 (2012), No Sound Without Silence (2014), Freedom Child (2017) and Sunsets & Full Moons (2019).

Tales From The Script also scored the most sales of the week – with 85% of its weekly total coming from physical and download sales.

“Thank you so much to everybody for making Tales From The Script our seventh Number 1 album in Ireland," frontman Danny O’Donoghue told Official Charts Ireland. "I want to thank our family, our friends, everyone who has been along this crazy journey – from the Sugar Club all the way to Croke Park and beyond. We’ve turned tragedies into triumphs, turned losses into wins - when one chapter is over another begins. This is just the start. We’ll see you out on the road real soon.”

Elsewhere on the chart, The Specials – who were also interviewed in the current issue of Hot Press – enter at No.18 with Protest Songs 1924-2012.

Last week’s No.1, Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour, drops to No.2 – but is also Ireland’s most-streamed album of the week.

On the Official Irish Singles Chart, meanwhile, Ed Sheeran maintains his No.1 spot for a fourth week with 'Shivers' – while Elton John and Dua Lipa's 'Cold Heart' (Pnau Remix) leaps from No.5 to No.2.

Following the release of No Time To Die, Billie Eilish's Bond theme re-enters the chart at No.38.
