    Earlier this week, Netflix announced the animated action/musical had accumulated more than 236 million views since its June 20 premiere, good enough to beat Red Notice and into first place on the streaming platform’s all-time rankings for English-language films.

    Laufey leads the new arrivals on the ARIA Chart, published Friday, Aug. 29, as A Matter of Time clocks up a No. 2 debut, the classical-adjacent artist’s career best in Australia.

    Deftones complete the podium with Private Music, their 10th studio album. It’s new at No. 3 for the alternative rock heavyweight’s sixth ARIA Top 20 appearance.

    Meanwhile, Royel Otis enjoy a second consecutive top 10, as Hickey, their sophomore collection, opens its account at No. 5. That’s a career best for the Sydney duo of Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic, after the No. 10 peak for 2024’s Pratts & Pain, winner of four ARIA Awards, including best rock album and best group.

    Hickey houses “Moody,” which last month reached No. 1 on Adult Alternative Airplay chart, their first leader on a Billboard chart. “Moody” bested the No. 2 peak of the indie-rock act’s cover of Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s “Murder on the Dancefloor,” which hit No. 2 on Alternative Airplay in July 2024.

    Another act with an Australian connection, Stray Kids debut at No. 4 with Karma, for the K-pop boyband’s sixth top 10 appearance in Australia. That tally includes Maxident (No. 4 in 2022), 5-Star (No. 2 in 2023), Rock-Star (No. 2 in 2023), Ate (No. 2 in 2024) and Hop (No. 4 in 2024). Band mate Felix was born and raised in Sydney, while Bang Chan was born in Seoul but also grew up in Sydney.

    US country artist Lainey Wilson lassos a new chart peak with Whirlwind, which enters at No. 8 following the release of a deluxe edition. Whirlwind reached No. 19 in August 2024.

    Tyler, The Creator’s CHERRY BOMB blows up for a new chart peak of No. 10, eclipsing its best of No. 13 in 2015. Tyler is currently working his way across Australia and New Zealand on the domestic leg of his Chromakopia tour, produced by Frontier Touring, and on Friday opened the flagship GOLF store in Sydney.

    Further down the list, British indie rock outfit Wolf Alice snag a No. 14 debut with Clearing, their fourth album, while Bleak Squad, the Melbourne-based “super group” comprising Mick Turner (Dirty Three, Mess Esque), Mick Harvey (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, PJ Harvey, The Birthday Party), Adalita (Magic Dirt) and Marty Brown (Art of Fighting) new at No. 40 with Strange Love, their first album.

    Finally, the top debut on the ARIA Singles Chart belongs to Doja Cat, whose “Jealous Type” leaps in at No. 28. “Jealous Type” is Doja’s 16th top 50 hit as a solo or featured artist on the ARIA Chart, including “Paint The Town Red,” which logged 10 weeks at No. 1 in 2023.
