New album by Lancaster rock band Massive Wagons reaches number six in UK charts

Triggered is the new album by Massive Wagons

The new album by Lancaster rock band Massive Wagons has gone straight in at number six in the UK album charts.

The news was announced on Friday when the weekly Official UK Albums Chart was released.

The band's new release 'Triggered' occupies a place in the Top 10 alongside 'Midnights' by Taylor Swift, a reissue of 'Revolver' by The Beatles and the latest releases by Arctic Monkeys and the duo of Michael Ball and Alfie Boe.

It has outsold/outstreamed albums by Ed Sheeran, Harry Styles and Foo Fighters.

The band members posted a message to their fans on their official Facebook page.

"In a few days when it’s sunk in a bit and we’ve sobered up we will make the required thanks...but for now IT'S NUMBER 6!!!!" they said.

"YOU ARE THE BLOODY GREATEST!"

The album is the second consecutive release by the group to hit the Top 10, after 'House of Noise' reached number nine in 2020.

Prior to that, 'Full Nelson' made number 16 in 2018.

The band is also preparing to co-headline a UK tour alongside American group Ugly Kid Joe - famed for their 90s Top 10 hits 'Everything About You' and 'Cats in the Cradle'.

Last month Massive Wagons headlined at The Sugarhouse at Lancaster Music Festival.

The band members are Baz Mills, Adam Thistlethwaite, Stevie Holl, Adam Bouskill and Alex Thistlethwaite.
