Modular People

Well done team Modular, who represented a tidy 5% slice in this year's Triple J Hottest 100 pie chart, which was unveiled yesterday. Yeah Yeah Yeahs' peaked as the highest Mod act (with 2 songs no less), while Australia's own Wolfmother, Tame Impala and Bag Raiders bigged up the local side of things. Thank you all for taking the time to vote, and a big congratulations to the acts!

11. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - "Heads Will Roll"
18. Bag Raiders - "Shooting Stars"
25. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - "Zero"
75. Wolfmother - "New Moon Rising"
78. Tame Impala - "Remember Me"

Happy Delphic day, everybody! We're very pleased to announce that Delphic's debut record, Acolyte, is now available everywhere - in good ol' fashioned CD format and new school digital styles. People are going slightly bananas about this record, with NME hailing it as the "first great debut album of 2010." Why not find out for yourself?

Buy Acolyte from the Mod Shop, JB Hi-Fi and iTunes.

If you're still in a Yeah Yeah Yeahs fever since they parted Australian shores on their It's Blitz! tour then fear no more, because next Monday on January 25, Babelgum will be premiering the music video for the brand new single "Skeletons."
