Inhaler’s debut album, It Won’t Always Be Like This, has topped the charts in both the UK and Ireland on its week of release.

Also with 2,393 copies, the band  top the much coveted cassette chart whilst they top both physical and download charts this week.

The result means that the fast-rising Irish quartet join a list of only 7 guitar bands to go in at No.1 in the UK album chart with their debut release. Inhaler join Royal Blood, Blossoms, The 1975, Haim, Viola Beach and The Snuts.
