Are they still around? I thought their 15 was up a while ago and now they are a fart in the wind. Didn't Tapes N Tapes take their spot as the "Hype" band?

I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor is still a good song. But other then that, whatever.

Arctic Monkeys
Isobel Campbell
Editors
Guillemots
Richard Hawley
Hot Chip
Muse
Zoe Rahman
Lou Rhodes
Scritti Politti
Sway
Thom Yorke

I would have chosen Muse or Thom Yorke. Arctic Monkeys suck ass.

Aah, thanks. I'm not surprised they won. I still haven't heard the disc, but I've heard about it enough. I'm going to have to decide for myself at some point.

should've been Hawley or Sway. Maybe Scritti Politti. But really, Richard Hawley.

I'd have voted for Guillemots, though sentimentally it'd be nice for Isobel to win something.

Gives an old guy headspins to see Scritti Politti on that list.
