It’s a sweet moment for Lime Cordiale, as the Australian indie-rock outfit debuts at No. 1 on the ARIA Chart with Enough Of The Sweet Talk (via Chugg Music/MGM).
Enough Of The Sweet Talk is the second leader for Lime Cordiale, following their second and most recent studio album, 14 Steps To A Better You from 2020. Earlier releases include debut Permanent Vacation and the Cordi Elba EP, their collaboration with British actor and DJ Idris Elba.
Signed to legendary concert promoter Michael Chugg’s label Chugg Music, Lime Cordiale nabs a slice of chart history — and breaks a long drought for homegrown artists.
Enough Of The Sweet Talk is the first Australian No. 1 this year on the ARIA Albums Chart, and it’s the first ever recipient of the Australian #1 Award, which are handed out from this week to the best-selling homegrown singles and albums, an accolade that salutes “outstanding examples of local success week-in, week-out,” says ARIA CEO Annabelle Herd.
The last Australian album to lead the national chart was Troye Sivan’s Something to Give Each Other from October 2023.

Also new to the albums chart top 10 is Empire Of The Sun with Ask That God (EMI), debuting at No. 10. It’s the electronic-pop act’s fourth album and fourth appearance in the top tier after Walking On A Dream (No. 6 in 2008), Ice On The Dune (No. 3 in 2013) and Two Vines (No. 7 in 2016). Comprised of Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore, Empire of the Sun has collected eight ARIA Awards.
Meanwhile, Ghost scores a top 20 debut with Rite Here Rite Now (Concord/Universal), the companion to the Swedish rock band’s concert film of the same name. It’s new at No. 12.
Over on the ARIA Singles Chart, published Friday, Aug. 2, Shaboozey logs another week at No. 1 with “A Bar Song (Tipsy) (via Empire).
The highest new entry on the latest tally belongs to Post Malone and Luke Combs with their country tag-team “Guy For That” (Universal), new at No. 18. “Guy For That” is the third track lifted from Posty’s upcoming album F-1 Trillion, due out Aug. 16. The lead track from it, “I Had Some Help” with Morgan Wallen, logged one week at No. 1 in May, and currently lifts 4-3, one place behind Billie Eilish’s “Birds Of A Feather” (Interscope/Universal), holding at No. 2.
The inaugural Australian #1 Single Award goes to The Kid LAROI’s “Girls” (Columbia/Sony), which dips 18-25 on the all-genres ARIA Singles Chart.
