but the mercury music prize is rendered useless - due to it's flawed methodology and rotten music taste.

Anyone in London going to do it? tom? stevem?
It would be great if a bunch of people from ILM went along. Imagine ILX invading NME. Great!

(Would NME even be worth invading, tho?)

we need a war to be waged on the concept of 'good music taste'.

Julio, would that what you said be the same as 'ceaseless guerilla operations in support of "bad taste"'?

"Aged 16-25" rules me out.

I'm game for a Mercury Prize FAP where by the truth-giving sacrament of Ayingerbrau the assembled jury will work out the real best album of 2003 (and any other year you care to mention. and all time. whatever you want really.)

Hasn't Doomie invaded the NME?

(obv, doomie hosting the ceremony would be the greatest thing ever).

otherwise no thoughts on mercury apart from: my mate gail should've won it! ;-)

Super Furry Animals would deserve it. And they are also unknown enough to be likely to receive it...

"unknown enough"? - to whom, prey?

― t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 21:11 (twenty-three years ago)

NME readers.

FLOETRY?

SFA are generally unknown to the Man On The Street when compared to such "indie" acts as Coldplay or Travis.

According to the issue, The Cooper Temple Clause are "fighting are war on normality". Now, what P!nk lyric sums up that little tableau, then

Has 'TS: Which is more tedious, the Mercury Music Prize, or the NME going on about the uselessness of the Mercury Music Prize?' been done yet?
