Hey, I was just listening to some of my favourite album! (Trespass) and remembered something about it going in the Belgian charts. I looked it up and found it went to number 1 in the album charts there, despite it barely scratching the top 100 in the UK, and didn't even chart anywhere else! None of their later ones went to number 1, and the only one to even chart was their most recent "Calling All Stations" (number 13). The only other album I can think of doing something like that is "Pawn Hearts" by VDGG, going number 1 in Italy. So my question is, what other albums unexpectedly charted somewhere that they perhaps never charted in before or after. Genuinely interested in any others!  Thanks for any feedback
