First Radiohead, Now This: Keith Urban Blocks Aussie Legends From #1

After holding out UK heavyweights Radiohead from their first ever Aussie #1 album, country singer Keith Urban has done it again this week and blocked a number of debuting acts from top spot thanks to his latest, Ripcord.

It was expected to be a three-way race for #1 between US pop star Meghan Trainor's Thank You and Australian legends The Living End's Shift and Paul Dempsey's Strange Loop, however they took out third, fourth and fifth place respectively, while Beyonce's acclaimed Lemonade jumped up one spot from last week to come in at #2.

Also making debuts on the chart this week included Pierce The Veil's Misadventures (#12), Kygo's Cloud Nine (#13), Devildriver's Trust No One (#21), Modern Baseball's Holy Ghost (#26) and Hatebreed with The Concrete Confessional (#33).

Following the 2016 Eurovision event last week, this year's compilation album stormed in to debut at #9, while Australian contestant Dami Im's Sound Of Silence debuted on the Singles Chart this week at #5.

The high debut won't surprise many given that Im made a massive impact on the singing competition and finished in second place.

The top two placings on the Singles Chart remain unchanged as Drake holds on to #1 with One Dance featuring Wizkid and Kyla, ahead of Calvin Harris' This Is What You Came For featuring Rihanna at #2.

Other single debuts this week included Meghan Trainor's Me Too (#18), Keith Urban's The Fighter featuring Carrie Underwood (#30), Drake and Rihanna's Too Good (#38), Little Mix's Hair (#45) and Cheat Codes with Sex featuring Kris Kross Amsterdam (#49).
