Hold on, Best New Band on now, I thought the Twang already won this.

Nominees for those who care;
Fratellis
The Horrors
The Klaxons
The Kooks
The View

Klaxons won, so, so, so uninspiring.

this would be so much more interesting if we had a swear counter ticking a la South Park.

Kaisers on now parading their new stuff. It's so different, it really is.

[retired_the gizmo]

some of those might be on the edge of one year old, but all still pretty close to newish.

[retired_jesenia]

tactful as ever, I'll work my way through them tomorrow, cheers Daaaaave

any self respecting band would surely refuse to play these NME awards, having your peers completely ignore you while you play, they're really not interested
