US pop-punk band All Time Low's chart-topping Future Hearts is their sixth album.

They sold just 278 copies more than their closest rival, Bay's debut album Chaos and the Calm.

"This is a huge surprise! We didn't expect this kind of reaction to the album and we couldn't be happier," said the Baltimore band.

"After so many years together, we never want to let our fans down, and this feels like a massive achievement on their part as much as ours."

Sheeran's X was in third place, with Sam Smith's In the Lonely Hour fourth while last week's number one, The Prodigy's The Day is My Enemy, fell to fifth.

Elsewhere in the album chart Drenge debuted at 14 with their second album Undertow and, after appearing on the final of The Voice, The Script got a boost of 23 places for their album No Sound Without Silence, taking it to number 23.
