The sixth studio album from veteran electro act The Prodigy has debuted at #8 on the ARIA Albums Chart.

The Day Is My Enemy is the outfit’s first studio album since 2009’s Invaders Must Die, and its release follows some solid performances at Future Music Festival’s last ever run.

As predicted by mid-week figures, Aussie acts Short Stack and Silverchair have also entered the charts.

With Silverchair’s iconic debut album, Frogstomp, celebrating its 20th anniversary, the band’s reissue entered the charts at #19, and reformed pop-punkers Short Stack’s new album, Dance With Me, came in at #12.
