Slipknot have earned their third U.K. No. 1 album with The End, So Far following a close battle with George Michael and The Snuts.
Iowa (2001) and We Are Not Your Kind (2019) are Slipknot's two other chart-toppers.
The End, So Far is the U.S. heavy metal band's sixth U.K. top 10 album.
The End, So Far is the most downloaded album of the past week, according to the Official Charts Company.
It sold a total of 14,068 copies, 12,083 of which came from pure sales while also collecting an additional 2,005 album-equivalent units from streaming.
The album narrowly pushed a reissue of George Michael's classic 1996 album Older to the second spot and The Snuts' Burn The Empire to No.3.
The End, So Far is the seventh studio album by Slipknot, released on September 30. This is the band's final album to be released through Roadrunner Records.
All the songs on the 12-track album were written by Slipknot.
