The band’s sophomore studio album “The Ride”, which featured the top hits “7”, “Soundcheck” and “Glasgow”, officially topped the chart in the UK yesterday following the sold-out sales for their tour dates later this year. But prior to this, the album have topped the iTunes album chart as well during its first hours of release!
The album from the punk rock band swept off Beyonce’s “Lemonade” which landed at no. 3 and Coldplay’s “A Head Full of Dreams” at no. 4. With it being released just last May 27, the album’s success sure is a huge milestone in Catfish’s career.
