A full list of nominees is here. Interesting that Kate Nash trumped Lily Allen, considering Lily was a factor in her rise to fame. One thing I don't really get? The usage of the word "indie." But now I have that Kelly Clarkson song stuck in my head, oy.

Oh, well...
I'm currently in love with that MGMT track!
Now, I have "It's a shame about Ray" stuck in my head!
*bashes head on wall*
first k errang puts paramour above Queen in the best ock bands ever and now NME thinks MCR are i ndie.
what is going on with music mags these ays?
My Chemical Romance is its own genre of usic. Its pure brilliancy.
and im disgusted t hat they would even put mcr in the same boat s indie hippies.
i mean come on people -_-
& MCR
& I'm offended that they put them under the same Genre as Indie.
pfffffffffffffffffffft.
The Klaxons are Indie.
NOT My Chem
By the way :)
...other than that, pretty good :) Yay for arcade,klaxons & killers!
you really must be tripping.
you keep your indie and leave mcr to the fans.
Vampire Weekend, Arcade Fire, and Arctic Monkeys are great bands.
Kate Nash is awesome too.
And MCR...indie? They aren't even actually indie...they are on a major label for gods sake!
