ARIA Albums Chart: Calum Hood, ONEFOUR Complete Rare Homegrown 1-2

5 Seconds of Summer’s Calum Hood nabs the ARIA Albums Chart crown, beating ONEFOUR to the prize.

The 5SOS bass player opens atop the national tally with ORDER Chaos ORDER, for his first solo No. 1.

As a member 5SOS, Hood owns six ARIA Awards and all five of their studio LPs have topped the chart: 5 Seconds of Summer (in 2014), Sounds Good Feels Good (2015), Youngblood (2018), CALM (2020) and 5SOS5 (2022).

It’s a rare all-Australian 1-2 on the ARIA Chart, published late Friday, June 20th, as Mount Druitt rappers ONEFOUR bags a No. 2 debut with Look At Me Now, their first full-length collection.

Another homegrown group, the prolific prog-rock outfit King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard closes out with top 5 with Phantom Island. It’s new at No. 5.

Since 2010, King Gizz have released 27 studio albums, 56 live albums, four compilation albums, one remix album and three EPs. From that remarkable tally, they’ve nailed 19 top 10 albums, five of which peaked at No. 2. A No. 1, however, continues to elude them. 

“Three Aussie debuts in the Top 5 is an absolutely massive result,” comments ARIA CEO Annabelle Herd. “Congratulations to ONEFOUR and King Gizz, but particularly to our new #1 Calum and his team for delivering a breakthrough hit album and proving that new Australian music absolutely can cut through.”
