After last week’s blitzkrieg which obliterated an entire third of the chart, the Top 30 settles down to welcome just the two new entries this week and both are Australian. Brisbane quartet, Blank Realm, after a decade of existence, are set to release a new album in September, the waxingly named Illegals In Heaven. The first single is one of the best songs yet, the ramshackly hook filled emotive pop sensation, ‘River Of Longing’. It’s no surprise therefore to see it debut straight into the Top 10 at 8. Listen to it below. The other new entry comes from Snowy Nasdaq and Snowy Life, who we featured on Monday with ‘Ironic Life. That’s at 19.
The Radio Dept. heads into the Top 5 while Tearjerker and Lena Fayre enter the Top 10. Essaie Pas still at 1.
Chart details in full here and the Top 30 Player is doing what its doing as always.
