i have been working on compiling any and all official chart positions for albums and singles, and i have reached as far as i can go by myself it seems

the things that are most glaring are:
  • Sonic Nurse's UK chart position
  • any Australian chart position before Rather Ripped
  • French chart position before 1996 (aka Washing Machine and backwards)
  • all Canadian, New Zealand, and Japanese chart positions
  • any Belgian positions before Sonic Nurse
  • any other other gaps that are listed below
there are indeed some times when they did not chart at all but, and their singles rarely charted past 1994. As far as i have gotten on some chart sites, some languages are too hard to decipher to navigate the site by guessing

to help you here is what i already have compiled
