The ARIA Albums Chart ranks the best-performing albums and extended plays in Australia.

So Far!!!, which started its peak position in late 2010. Seven acts achieved their first number-one album in Australia: The Strokes, Britney Spears, Drapht, Adele, Gotye, Florence and the Machine, and Nickelback.[2]
