Music Chart - August 2015

Time for another chart update. New albums from Wolf Alice - so good it goes straight into the top five!, The Chemical Brothers - possibly their most uninspiring, lacklustre and soulless album to date, new country music star Kacey Musgraves - a charming journey through trailer park America, Little Boots - Ms. Hesketh continues to tug on Kylie's coattails with luscious electro-pop, Muse - who engage, baffle and amaze in equal measures, Public Enemy - the veteran rap legends plug away wit their (now) inconsistent art, and two albums from CFCF with gorgeous instrumentation and melodies.

Death Cab For Cutie hold the number one spot in the 'not-quite-top-50'.
