These albums will be hot on everyone's tip list, but something just tells me that they won't be. We shall find out tomorrow!
The Pigeon Detectives: Emergency
Okay, so they sell heaps, but surely even the Mercury panel wouldn't be this cynical… would they ?
Adele: 19
Being slightly apparently cooler than Duffy, this might just have edged her if it wasn't for the made-up Brit Award leaving a bad taste in everyone's mouth. So the panel will stay well away.
Mystery Jets: 21
To my mind the best indie record of the year so far, but it doesn’t seem to have really crept up to many other people’s radars.
Elbow: The Seldom Seen Kid
This might've been a shoo-in if it wasn't for the gloom-rock ticket being taken by Radiohead and Portishead for sure.
Lightspeed Champion: Falling Off The Lavender Bridge
Six months ago, for sure – but since the Lightspeed thing proved it really didn't have legs, I wouldn't be so sure anymore.
The Enemy: We’ll Live and Die In These Towns
Deserving as it is, The Enemy are a band of the people, which mean most people on the panel will probably reckon them common and not criric-worthy. Shame.
Coldplay: Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends
Sure this might be their best album ever, but something in my waters says that Coldplay are one of those bands destined never to win it/ The same boat as Elbow really.
