🎤 Mercury prize - The best of the rest (2005) 🎤

Yeah. Hard to disagree with any of that. Just feel that much as I like the Anohni record, in terms of sound it could have been made at any time, whereas Arular was definitely the sound of its time.

Also obviously agree about Untrue. But a large part of that decision will have been made by him not having any interest in being there.

Go Team, Maximo Park and Bloc Party. Magic Numbers just miss out. Shame that Bloc Party split up forever after Silent Alarm isn’t it.
