SALES and streams of The Cranberries has increased by 1000% since singer Dolores O’Riordan sadly died this week.

Following the announcement of the untimely death of the lead singer on Monday, fans have been returning to the band’s music in memory of the Irish singer-songwriter including the track Zombie which was recorded in memory of Tim Parry and Johnathan Ball. 

The two boys were killed during the Warrington bombing in 1993. 

And speaking to the Warrington Guardian earlier this week, mum Wendy Parry said 25 years on the song still 'resonates and carries a powerful message'. 

Sales and streams of the The Cranberries’ albums catalogue surged 986% week on week, according to Official Charts Company data.

Greatest hits collection Stars – The Best Of 1992-2002 reached a new high at Number 16. The collection originally topped out at Number 20 when it was released back in 2002.

Meanwhile combined sales and streams of the band’s singles rise 1134% since the previous week, with three tracks re-entering today’s Official Singles Chart Top 100.

Zombie, released in 1994, lands at Number 45, their breakthrough hit Linger is at 47, and Dreams is at 66.

Over on the Official Irish Singles Chart, the impact is even more pronounced, with Linger (11), Zombie (16) and Dreams (24) all re-entering the Top 40, while Ode To My Family (46) and When You’re Gone (64) land in the Top 100.
