Paul Weller leads Eminem in albums race

Paul Weller is the early frontrunner in this week's albums chart, with his 14th studio album True Meanings currently outselling Eminem's Kamikaze by 16,376 copies to 13,757.

There are five other new entries in the Top 10 - Collapse (No.4, 5,087 sales) by Aphex Twin; My Mind Makes Noises (No.5, 4,952 sales) by Pale Waves; Monsters Exist (No.6, 4,718 sales) by Orbital; For Ever (No.8, 4,265 sales) by Jungle and David Guetta's 7 (No.9, 3,308 sales). Carrie Underwood's Cry Pretty, meanwhile, is straight in at No.11 on sales of 3,038, according to the Official Charts Company midweek sales flash.

In the singles chart, Promises (22,926) by Calvin Harris and Sam Smith leads the way from Benny Blanco, Halsey & Khalid's Eastside (18,659). Happier (12,185) by Marshmello Ft Bastille moves up a place to No.5 in an otherwise static Top 5.
