:(

Didn't even turn up.

See a machine, RAGE AGAINST IT!

I'd have loved him to win it, proper shame it fell to the indie crowd yet again.

lol Eyebrow won it with some bland indie rock for dads when they don't fancy a bit of coldplay...

ahh well.

at least Burial won't be hounded by the press as much now.

to be fair elbows album is amazing plus its not as if they just churned out some music and won, they've been working together for 17 years and deserve it...

however I still would have been much happier to see Burial win it....



did anyone from hyperdub turn up?

I've heard the album couple of times, didn't rate it too much. It is quite grand in it's arrangements I guess, if a bit miserable. It's not generic indie pop, but not particularly innovative. Good if you like that kind of thing.

I knew Burial wouldn't win it but it would of been nice for him to turn up, he could of done some strange stage show while having the track playing or something, just anything what makes it looked like he was there even if he didn't wanna show his identity live on TV.., not like hes on tour or anything.


Big ups the Elbow though, well deserved.

its not about pride, why wud u go to one of those things anyway? the goal of making an album (imo) is not to be proud when bbc industry wank decide give u the nod, eff that. sitting with robert plant and his wrinkly neck on one side and estelle's mouth on the other. how bizarre

big up for not going :wink: :wink:

Well that was fucked was really thinking Burial would get it

then i heard Elbow and that swag tune at the end, it was a Royal slap in the face.

Im glad Burial didn't show up.

Shes a dickhead and only did one good song called 1980 and a few wicked bits with Faithless such as Why Go (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=1tmWjZ8b588). Everything else is utter wank.

If Burial wasn't going to win, then Adele should have. At least her music is half decent.
