By the Numbers
Every one of the twelve tracks is credited to the band as a unit, all four names on all of them, with no producer credit and no guest writer. Markus Dravs produced but wrote nothing. This is the credit shape that holds for the next three albums.
The debut came out in October 2009 and took two years to peak. It reached number two on the UK Albums Chart and the Billboard 200, sold over a million copies in the United Kingdom and over three million in the US, and won the Brit Award for British Album of the Year in 2011.
