'How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb' has entered the UK charts at No.1.

The new album knocked Eminem off the top of the British charts after three weeks.

This is the ninth U2 album to top the UK charts, beginning with 'War' in 1983, followed by 'The Unforgettable Fire', 'The Joshua Tree', 'Zooropa', Pop, the first 'Best of' Collection and 'All That You Can't Leave Behind'.

More chart news as it arrives.
