International prominence followed with the success of their debut album Scissor Sisters, which reached number one in the UK where it was the best-selling album of 2004 and spawned five top 20 singles. The band picked up multiple awards, including three Brits.

‘Ta-Dah’ (2006) proved another commercial and critical success and scored them their second consecutive number one album and their first UK number one single ‘I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’.

Displaying a shift towards a more club-oriented sound, their third studio album ‘Night Work’ (2010) charted at number two on the UK Albums Chart, and gave the band their biggest success to date in America.
