context_page_description: The UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart is a record chart which ranks the best-selling rock and heavy metal albums in the United Kingdom. Compiled and published by the Official Charts Company, the data is based on each album's weekly physical sales, digital downloads and streams. In 2006, there were 21 albums that topped the 52 published charts. The first number-one album of the year was In Your Honor, the fifth studio album by Foo Fighters, which was released the previous year and spent the first four weeks of 2006 at number one. The first new number-one album of the year was Yellowcard's fifth studio album Lights and Sounds. The final number-one album of the year was the Aerosmith compilation The Very Best of Aerosmith, which spent the last two weeks of the year at number one.
