Australian-born punk rock icon Brody Dalle and Sydney-based dance-rock trio RÜFÜS have made their respective debuts on the UK albums chart.

Dalle, best known for her work with The Distillers and Spinnerette, entered the charts at #33 with her polarising debut solo full-length, Diploid Love, while RÜFÜS' Atlas just edged its way into the top 100, coming in at #96.

Coming off her top-five debut last week, ubiquitous rapper Iggy Azalea and her acclaimed album The New Classic had to settle for a top-20 spot, charting at #18 this week. It's not all bad news for the up-and-comer, though, with her track Fancy, featuring Charli XCX, moving up the UK singles chart to sneak into the top 10, at #9.

Australian teen-pop sensations 5 Seconds Of Summer also had a solid week, with their song She Looks So Perfect hanging in there, currently sitting at #26 on the singles chart. Both Fancy and She Looks So Good hold the same or a similar position on the week's digital singles chart (#9 and #30, respectively).

Vance Joy's Riptide continues extending its seemingly endless lifespan with another week in the top 100 singles, up once more, from #70 to #67.
