The Triple J Hottest 100 Australian Albums of all time countdown has begun and we’ll be keeping an up to date list as it comes.
Angus & Julia Stone’s Big Jet Plane took out the Hottest 100 of 2010 and now JJJ have asked for the Hottest 100 Australian Albums of All Time.
Voting was for full length albums only, no EPs, greatest hits collections allowed Australian artists only (with the exception of Australian musicians who currently work overseas).
