There won’t be any broken hearts over at The Amity Affliction HQ, with the Aussie metalcore titans picking up their third straight #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart with This Could Be Heartbreak.

After peaking at #1 with 2014's Let The Ocean Take Me and 2012's Chasing Ghosts, the hat trick set in place by This Could Be Heartbreak is further testament to their relentless work ethic and powerful live show; all of which you can check out on their current album tour (dates in theGuide).

This Could Be Heartbreak has also hit the UK Albums Chart, landing a #51 debut.

After debuting on top in Australia, the US, Canada and New Zealand last week, the Suicide Squad soundtrack was the only real threat to the Gympie-founded metalcore favourites, but was knocked down to #2, with Human Nature’s Gimme Some Lovin': Jukebox Vol. II holding steady at #3, and Bernard Fanning’s Civil Dusk dropping two places to #4, and Adele (unsurprisingly) rounding out the top five with 25.

Drake-signed artist PartyNextDoor scored a top 20 debut, with PartyNextDoor 3 landing #13, while the debut of Thy Art Is Murder and Fit For An Autopsy's The Depression Sessions keep things heavy at #38, and Aussie surf rock duo Hockey Dad debut at #55 with their first album, Boronia.

Twenty One PilotsBlurryface, Hilltop HoodsDrinking From The Sun, Walking Under Stars Restrung and Disturbed’s Immortalized have all jumped back into the spotlight this week, sitting at #7, #11 and #12 respectively.

Over on the Singles Chart, the top three is still held by The ChainsmokersCloser featuring Halsey,  and DJ Snake's Let Me Love You and Major Lazer's Cold Water featuring Justin Bieber, with Aussie-born-US-based Betty Who making a massive surge and cracking #9 this week.
