Melbourne’s Little Red have taken the ARIA charts by storm with an incredible Top 5 debut for their acclaimed new album
Midnight Remember.
The band’s sophomore album has received widespread critical acclaim in recent weeks and punters have similarly given the album a massive thumps up.
Midnight Remember also holds the coveted #1 position on the ARIA Australian artists chart and is one of just two local albums in the overall Top 10.
Album of the Week gongs continue to flow for the album – the national HIT liftout declared “Little Red have just stepped up into the big league” in their four star Album of the Week review, The Age’s Melbourne Magazine bestowed it with Album of the Month status and raves “this is just pure genius”, while Channel Seven’s Sunrise have declared the band a “must see”.
The good news continues for the Little Red boys with their insanely catchy lead single “Rock It” crashing into the ARIA Top 20 singles chart at # 19 (up from # 28 last week) and also leaping to #2 on the Australian artists singles chart.” The song is only gathering momentum and it is certain to feature in many single of the year recaps at year’s end.
