All Hail Harry Styles: ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally’ Debuts at No. 1 in Australia

Harry Styles cruises into the weekend with a new chart crown, as Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally debuts at No. 1 in Australia.

The former One Direction star makes it four from four on the ARIA Albums Chart. His self-titled first solo album logged one week at No. 1 in 2017; Fine Line reigned for three weeks in 2019-20; and Harry’s House dominated for 10 weeks in 2022-23. As a member of 1D, he also had four leaders: Up All Night (in 2011), Take Me Home (2012), Midnight Memories (2013) and Four (2014).

Styles’ new album is the best-seller on vinyl during the latest cycle, and all 12 tracks from it impact the top 50, led by “American Girls” at No. 3, lifting his career tally of top 50 appearances to 33. The British pop singer has twice led the ARIA Singles Chart, with “Sign Of The Times” (in 2017) and “As It Was” (2022).

With Harry enjoying the best possible start on the latest chart, published Friday, March 13, Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving is dethroned on the albums chart, down 1-2. The Art of Loving led the way for 10 non-consecutive weeks.

Linkin Park is currently in Australia for their first national tour in 13 years, a run that is due to wrap Saturday, March 14 with the second of two nights at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena. That exposure boosts the nu-metal favorites’ latest album From Zero, which flies 44-4. From Zero spent a single week at No. 1 in November 2024.

Also new this week is Fugazi’s sixth studio album Albini Sessions (Benefits For Letters Charity), dropping in at No. 20, for the U.S. rockers’ first chart appearance here. The collection features previously-unreleased cuts made in 1992 with the late Steve Albini.

Australian artists Bully Haymakes (No. 31 with Anywhere But Here) and Sam Buckingham (No. 35 with Beautiful Machine) enjoy top 40 bows.

Although her albums chart run comes to an end, Olivia Dean extends her streak atop the ARIA Singles Chart with “Man I Need.” The English singer and songwriter’s signature song enters a 17th consecutive week at No. 1, and is now tied with The Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” and Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” as the second-longest reigning single since the ARIA Charts launched back in 1983. The greatest of all time is Tones and I “Dance Monkey,” which topped the tally for 24 non-consecutive weeks in 2019-20.

Finally, Tame Impala’s “Dracula” continues to sink its teeth into the ARIA Chart. The Deadbeat tune improves 17-15, for a new peak position in its 20th week on the tally. Kevin Parker’s latest hit enjoyed a lift when JENNIE contributed vocals to a new mix, and again when the BLACKPINK star this week jumped into a “Dracula” TikTok trend. It’s the only Aussie recording to dent the latest top 50.
