Machine Gun Kelly’s fifth studio album, Tickets To My Downfall (Bad Boy/Interscope), is the second highest new entry at #3 today, followed by Deftones’ Ohms (Reprise) at #5. Following his Mercury Prize win, Michael Kiwanuka’s Kiwanuka (Polydor) has seen a 4,500% increase in sales, rising to #4 from #78.

Joji’s Nectar (88Rising/12Tone) ends the week at #6, Warner’s expanded edition of Prince’s 1987 album, Sign O’ The Times, sits at #7, and Slade collection Cum On Feel The Hitz–The Best Of (BMG) lands the band their first Top 10 album in nearly 46 years at #8.
