Following praise from critics and fans alike, Camp Cope are set to score the highest local debut on this week's ARIA Albums chart. 

According to midweek figures, the Melbourne trio's sophomore studio LP, How To Socialise & Make Friends, is on track to debut in the top five of the chart — check out our review here.

It comes after the band's 2016 self-titled debut record peaked at #36 on the list. 

Camp Cope will be in the race for top spot against last week's chart-topper, fellow Aussie Vance Joy's Nation Of Two and Ed Sheeran's ÷ (Divide), which is expected to climb back into the top three amidst the UK songwriter's current record-breaking Australian stadium tour.

Over on the Singles chart, Drake will be looking to go six-weeks straight atop the list with God's Plan; the only debut this week comes from US rapper XXXTentacion with SAD! (predicted to debut in the top 40).
