‘Folklore’ falls short of reigning the U.K. chart for the fourth consecutive week as it’s pushed down to the second place by newcomer ‘A Celebration of Endings.’
AceShowbiz –Biffy Clyro‘s new album “A Celebration of Endings” has ended Taylor Swift‘s hold over the U.K. albums chart crown.

In the singles chart, Joel Corry and MNEK‘s “Head & Heart” secures a fifth week at the top by holding off a strong challenge from Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion‘s controversial new track “WAP”, which rises to two.
At three is Nathan Dawe and KSI‘s “Lighter”, ahead of this week’s highest new entry, Drake and Lil Durk‘s “Laugh Now Cry Later”. Completing the top five is Harry Styles‘ summer sleeper hit “Watermelon Sugar”.
