Hilltop Hoods have made history with their latest album The Great Expanse reaching #1 on the ARIA charts.

Their eighth studio album debuted this week at #1, knocking Ariana Grande off the perch and making it five #1 studio albums in a row for the Adelaide trio and their sixth album to top the ARIA Album Charts overall.

Holding the ARIA record for the most #1s for any Australian group, The Hoods pass other Aussie acts like Powderfinger and AC/DC and are now tied with Michael Jackson, Metallica and Red Hot Chili Peppers overall.

While they are the only Aussie band or group to get to the big six, they still have a way to go to beat out solo men John Farnham on 10 and Jimmy Barnes sitting pretty on 11 #1 Albums.

The Great Expanse is also the first Australian #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart in 2019.

Next in line, maybe taking down another Powderfinger record in the Hottest 100?
