Triple J has broken ranks this year to award none-Aussie act Muse the coveted number one spot on the Triple J Hottest 100.
The manually placed top spot has traditional been given to an Australian act to mark Australia Day (January 26) but in a change of mood at the J's, Muse 'Knights Of Cydonia' beat Silverchair's 'Straight Lines' to come in at number one.
Other Australian acts in the Top 10 were John Butler Trio, Faker and The Panics.
Kings of Leon, Foo Fighters, Cold War Kids, Daft Punk and Soko rounded out the Top 10.
Muse also had the No. 58 song with 'Invincible'. Silverchair made No. 30 with 'If You Keep Losing Sleep' and No. 80 with 'Reflections of a Sound'.
In a huge disappointment for the staff of Music Universe, Radiohead only came in once at number 94, Interpol once at 98, QOTSA at 89, Arcade Fire at 81 and Klaxons at 54. Considering these disappointments, the staff are on the verge of boycotting next year's countdown.
The Top 10 for the Triple J Hottest 100 was:
1. Muse 'Knights Of Cydonia'
2. Silverchair 'Straight Lines'
3. Kings Of Leon 'On Call'
4. John Butler Trio 'Better Than'
5. Faker 'This Heart Attack'
6. Foo Fighters 'The Pretender'
7. Daft Punk 'Harder, Better, Stronger, Faster
8. Cold War Kids 'Hang Me Up To Dry'
9. Soko 'I'll Kill Her'
10. The Panics 'Don't Fight It'
