For the third week in a row we have a new Australian album sitting on the top of the ARIA Charts. This week the honour goes to Birds of Tokyo, who’ve earned their first number one with March Fires.
Last week’s number one, Hillsong United’s Zion has taken a big tumble. It’s now sitting at number nine. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ Push the Sky Away, the album that was number one before that, is proving much steadier. It’s only slipped one position to land at number six.
Nick and co stand a step ahead of fellow Aussies The Bee Gees’ Mythology, which is at number seven, and Flume’s self-titled work, which is at number eight.
For the first time in a long time we don’t have any Aussie singles in the top ten. Hopefully we see that change next week!

Australia has a new local album on the top of the ARIA Charts. While Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ Push the Sky Away has dropped to number five, Hillsong United’s Zion has succeeded it at number one. Zion is the Sydney religious group’s 59th album, and their second number one.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are sitting at the top of the ARIA albums chart this week with their brand new album Push the Sky Away. Remarkably their 15th studio album, their first in five years, is their first Aussie number one.
