King Gizzard & Ceres Among Local Acts Putting Pressure On Pink's #1 Australian Debut

Pink is the hot favourite to take out top spot on the ARIA Albums chart this week with her eighth studio album Hurts 2B Human, but a number of Aussie acts also debuting on the list this week won't make it easy for the US pop star.

According to midweek figures, Pink will not only be up against Billie Eilish who is currently touring Australia, she will need to beat out a number of local debuts including Hillsong United's People, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard's Fishing For Fishies, Ceres' We Are A Team and David Campbell's Back In The Swing which should all land in the top 30.

Rob Thomas is also expected to push for a top three finish with his latest solo record, Chip Tooth Smile, while Splendour 2019 act Catfish & The Bottlemen will look to land in the top ten with The Balance.

Over on the Singles chart, Taylor Swift is on track for a top three debut with her record-breaking track, ME!, and is in the race to dethrone Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus' Old Town Road which is aiming to top the list for a third-straight week.

Other debuts this week include SZA, The Weeknd and Travis Scott's Power Is Power (top 30) and Pink's Hurts 2B Human, featuring Khalid (top 50).
