We all know that Best Coast are blog favourites, but the California fuzz pop band's fame now stretches well beyond indie-dom. Their debut album, Crazy for You, came out on July 27, and that album has now cracked the Top 40.

The album moved over 10,000 units and peaked at No. 36 on the Billboard 200 albums chart - an impressive feat, given that it is on a boutique independent label Mexican Summer.

It's a well-deserved honour for Bethany Cosentino and her sidekick Bobb Bruno, as well as their new cohort, drummer Ali Koehler. We're sure Snacks the cat is pretty happy about the whole thing too.

As previously reported, Best Coast will be hitting the road this fall with stops in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.
