Invaders Must Die has debuted at number 3 on the top 50 albums ARIA chart in Australia. AONO peaked at number 6 here so we already have a much more successful appearance. I guessed number 3 too which is weird. I feel really happy for the guys because top 3 album positions in this country are reserved for Australian pop artists and US pop princesses usually. It's great to see that they've finally made an impact again after so many years.
With strong sales IMD might go on to become their second biggest seller  .

In comparison on the ausie charts:
Sold greater and peaked higher (or equal to) in the first week, than:
Britney Spears - Circus
Fall Out Boy - Folie a Deaux
The Fray - The Fray
Duffy - Rockferry
Nickelback - Dark Horse
Kanye West - 808s and Heartbreak
Franz Ferdinand - Tonight
Lady Gaga - The Fame
and many more....
Lets consider Invaders Dead!

Australians Rule! Woot. When I went to work last weekend at the local target, there was only one copy left! I live in a small town to. I was like 'oh yeah'.

3rd is not bad especially when I've heard fuck all people on the telly or radio talking about IMD. I've had more mates ask me to burn them a copy of this Prodigy album over any of the earlier ones.. But.. I tell em to go fuckin buy it the cheap arse bastards.

In Germany its also at Chart Entry Nr. 3.
Nice Comeback for the Prodigy. AONO was not so good right?
But the FOTL success will not comeback I guess.
That internet downloading bullshit killed a lotta sales.

I think its at number 2 now in OZ. I told my mate that and he looked at me like I was talking shit. Coz we don't hear much about them on the radio or nothing..
I went into a "MUSIC" store today and they were actually playing the album, which was good to hear! I went up to the cookie cutter EMO looking dude behind the counter and asked him if we will ever see the OMEN single over here. He looked at me like I was from another planet and had no clue about it..
All I hope is that when WD comes out as a single that it gets marketed properly over here. I think that track has appeal that will draw in all sorts of people... It could put IMD at #1 for a while and if the following singles are also marketed well then we could see IMD in the charts in Australia for quite some time....
But that is... if we get some fucking singles!
