"I heard this album whilst travelling in Australia and it has to be one of my favourite albums of all. Great tunes and great variety - something to suit everyone and something to blow everyone away. With tracks from Blink 182 and The Living End you can't go wrong. Australian music rules. I only wish Britain had such a great radio station as Triple J. Keep up the good work!"
Enormous variety and great value!

"This is possibly the best instalment of the "Triple J Hottest 100" collection. It has a large variety of songs from the soft, easy-going tunes of the Whitlams with "No Aphrodisiac" to the heavy notes of bands such as Grinspoon with "DCx3". I recommend this CD to anyone, including you Americans out there! This CD comes with a cool multimedia function that allows you to install a "Triple J Screen Saver" onto your computer."
Best ever release from the j's

"This is, in my opinioin, the best ever release from the best radio station in Australia, Triple J, and has a huge mix of sounds; heavy, slowy, dance, punk and ska, from Australian and internation acts such as The Living End, Regurgitator, The Whitlams, Marilon Manson, The Foo Fighters and Blur. With the double cd set it's a must buy!!!"
Great Alternative

"Triple J does it again. I own all the Hottest 100 CD's and they just keep getting better and better. Definitely looking forward to Volume 6."
