Mercury Music Prize Nominations

<< < (2/5) > >>

MilkmanDan:
M.I.A. and The Go! Team are alright.
The rest are about as exciting as eating cold wallpaper paste.

sp2:
Not terrible, but not particularly inspiring.

Like most awards nominations, actually.

salada:
maybe someone really pedestrian and annoying will win it. then hopefully do the trick that mercury music prize winners usually do, which is disappear without a trace (let alone another album).

est:
i think that Bloc Party, Kaiser Chiefs & Maximo Park are all listenable, but hardly groundbreaking.  the Go! Team is fun, but i am not sure if i'd go as far as saying it's worthy of an award.  Coldplay is boring, as usual.  can't say much about the others, though, as i haven't heard any of it.

sp2:
Awards never go to the groundbreakers.  Awards are never daring or inspired, much like the bands which receive them.
