Northlane Smash US Charts With New Album 'Alien'

Aussie heavyweights Northlane have blitzed the US charts this week with their new album, Alien.

After debuting on the ARIA Albums chart at #3 last week, the Sydney metalcore outfit's fifth record has cracked five Billboard charts, including #6 on the Heatseekers Albums list. 

Alien has also debuted at #8 on the Hard Rock Album Sales chart, #15 on the Independent Albums chart, #24 on the Rock Album Sales chart and #92 on the Top Album Sales chart. 

The placings have also helped Northlane enter the Emerging Artists chart at #48, joining a number of big acts like Mabel, Noah Cyrus and Denzel Curry. 

Northlane frontman Marcus Bridge sat down with The Music recently to discuss the new record; read the full interview here.
