The Lex 20p Indie Prize SHORTLIST

[Poll #1049946]

Apologies if your nomination didn't make it to the Top Ten - I tried to stick to UK artists wherever possible. Voting will close at the end of the week.

EDIT: The voting criteria have been left deliberately ambiguous. Vote as you see fit: best, worst or 'most indie'? It's up to you.

Eeeeewwwwwwwwww.

I voted for Mark Ronson b/c his music may be terrible but he is fit and I would totally do him.

I have a horrible feeling that people are voting for Art Brut b/c they actually like them.

Was thinking of voting for the Klaxons as they actually have at least one song I like (an cover version that you disapprove of, iirc) and would rank high on criterion of "annoying Lex," but Art Brut got the vote finally 'cause of an actual good single that reminds me a lot of the Fall, which is to say obstreperously (sp?) emphatic in a way that gets into a groove. The first Art Brut album pretty much puzzled me, which means I should give it a relisten. Think there's a knack for tunesmanship and a knack for shooting himself in the foot; the recent single forgot to shoot itself, hence got on the good foot.
