In the Irish charts, Unreal Unearth has outsold the entire top 5 albums combined this week to nab the coveted top spot.

Speaking on the album's chart success, Hozier said:

“It’s a special feeling to receive this kind of support in your home country. Massive thank you to everyone in Ireland for all the love and support shown to Unreal Unearth! News of this number 1 has me absolutely thrilled.”

After his set at Glastonbury earlier this summer, as well as a sold-out European, UK and US tour, Hozier brings his Unreal Unearth Tour back to Europe this December.
