Those Damn Crows soar to Number 1 in the Albums Chart

We’re flying high today at Notting Hill as we proudly celebrate our very own Those Damn Crows officially landing the UK Number 1 album this week with their explosive new release, "Wake the Ravens".

After months of anticipation, relentless touring, and a groundswell of support from fans across the country, the Welsh rock titans have stormed to the top of the Official Albums Chart — marking the band’s first-ever No. 1 and cementing their status as one of the UK’s premier rock acts.

The record, released just last week, has received widespread acclaim for its powerful songwriting, cinematic production, and unapologetic energy — a signature blend that Those Damn Crows have honed since their debut. From anthemic stadium-ready choruses to deeply personal ballads, "Wake the Ravens" is being hailed as their most ambitious and accomplished work to date.

Shane Greenhall, frontman of the band, shared his reaction to the news:
"We’re completely blown away. To have a Number 1 album… it’s honestly something we’ve dreamed of since we were kids in Bridgend. This one’s for every single person who believed in us, came to a show, bought the album, streamed the songs — we love you all."

As proud publishers of Those Damn Crows, we at Notting Hill Publishing have had the privilege of watching the band grow from grassroots heroes into chart-topping heavyweights. Their success is not only a testament to their relentless work ethic and talent, but also to the power of rock music in 2025 — still alive, still loud, and still connecting with audiences in a massive way.

With sold-out shows lined up, festival appearances on the horizon, and this landmark chart achievement under their belts, it's clear that Those Damn Crows are flying higher than ever — and they’re not coming down anytime soon.
