The new album from off-kilter electronic duo Fuck Buttons made it into the Top 40 of the UK charts after its first week over the weekend, the first record from ATP Recordings to achieve the feat to date.
Slow Focus was released last Monday (22 July), the pair’s first album since 2009. It reached number 36 in the charts in a week of other new releases such as Rolling Stones’ Live at Hyde Park album and a debut LP from X-Factor’s Jahmene Douglas, which currently sits at top spot.
