Harry Styles is back in his chart-topping groove, as Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally flies straight to the summit on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart in a career-best opening week on March 13.
The feat marks Styles’ third No. 1 on the chart as a solo act, following his 2017 self-titled debut and 2022’s Harry’s House. He also achieved a further four No. 1 LPs throughout the 2010s as a member of boy band One Direction.
The Official Charts Company reports that with its 183,000 units shifted in the opening week, Kiss All the Time is the biggest release of 2026 so far. The figure smashes Styles’ previous personal best with Harry’s House, which opened with sales of 113,000.
The final number also makes Kiss All the Time the biggest opening week for a solo male artist since Ed Sheeran’s 2017 LP Divide (672,000 copies). Of Kiss All the Time’s final number, 66,000 were sold on vinyl, his best opening week on the format.
With the album track “American Girls” landing at No. 1 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart this week, Styles has secured an Official Chart double. This was last achieved by Olivia Dean in October 2025 with her second LP, The Art of Loving, and smash-hit single “Man I Need.”
Ahead of the LP’s release, Styles gave his first TV performance of No. 1 single “Aperture” at the BRIT Awards at Co-op Live, Manchester in February. The 32-year-old returned to the venue the following week on March 6 to perform a One Night Only show for a Netflix special, which landed on March 8 — his first live concert to appear on any streaming platform.
Styles extends an 11-week streak in which the U.K. No. 1 spot has been occupied by British artists following triumphs by Dean, Robbie Williams, Louis Tomlinson, Charli xcx, Mumford & Sons and Gorillaz.
On the charts dated March 13, Dean’s The Art of Loving holds position at No. 2 while Morrissey’s Make-Up Is a Lie finishes at No. 3, his 13th top five album as a soloist.
Fleetwood Mac’s 50 Years – Don’t Stop compilation lands at No. 4, while Bruno Mars’ The Romantic grabs the No. 5 spot, down two from last week.
