Although unable to dethrone Eminem from #1, Skegss have scored a higher debut on this week’s ARIA Albums chart than music legend Paul McCartney.

The Byron Bay rockers have soared into the charts to claim a #2 debut with My Own Mess, while McCartney’s new offering, Egypt Station, enters at #4.

There’s a strong element of hip hop in the top 10, with Eminem’s surprise album Kamikaze joined by Mac Miller’s Swimming, which re-enters at #7 following the rapper's tragic passing last week, and $uicideboy$' I Want To Die In New Orleans at #10.

Other debuts on the Albums chart come from Lauren Daigle's Look Up Child (#38) and Russ Zoo (#43), and Clutch’s Book Of Bad Decisions (#57).

Over on the Singles chart, local singer-songwriter Dean Lewis is unstoppable, claiming five straight weeks at #1 with Be Alright, while Lil Pump & Kanye West’s I Love It debuts at #7.
