all better than any of the nominees for best album of the last 3 decades (with the possible exception of oasis) talk about the bland leading the bland

Everyone on the list should be rounded up and slaughtered.


Seems harsh @ 1st glance - but the more you think about it the more sense it makes.

The animal collective album has really grown on me though...

   Are you Garthwaite, or have you just pinched his handle?

What a completely fucked list!! Still, I suppose you have to make some allowance for it being a "popular" award.....actually, could we slaughter all the people who vote for these as well as the performers?

This shithole is about ready for a fucking big cull, Brits, cunts more like. I'm proud of nearly fuck all, nothing 'Great' about Britain any more. Apart from the last little bits of mature woodland and some of our special countryside.

All evidenced by the shit that's on telly at 'primetime', and these fucked up 'music' awards.

Everyone on the list should be rounded up and slaughtered.

I've got a soft spot for the Sade album, but please take the rest to the abattoir.

The Brits means fuck all for real music anyway, it's just a PR backslapping-fest.

Haven't taken any notice of The Brits for years but that list is rather depressing.
