The group's five previous releases all entered the chart in the top spot.

Former Oasis singer Liam Gallagher had previously held the record for his album As You Were, which sold 16,000 vinyl records during its opening week in October 2017.

Arctic Monkeys' latest album was their first for five years. Its predecessor AM just missed out on this week's top 10 after climbing 28 places to number 11.
