Well, getting three of my four "sure bet" nominees isn't bad. La Roux, Kasabian, and Florence and The Machine made the list, along with Glasvegas, who I hadn't considered since their album was released so long ago, Bat for Lashes, who is lucky to receive her second nomination, and Friendly Fires, whose "Paris" is a rather great song.
The other six nominees are people I haven't heard of, making this year's list a bit more "out there," from my pop-based perspective. Last year, I owned most of the nominees at the time they were announced--this year just two (and I purchased Flo & Co. just after).
Full list:
Bat For Lashes – Two Suns
Florence and the Machine – Lungs
Friendly Fires – Friendly Fires
Glasvegas – Glasvegas
Kasabian – West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum
La Roux – La Roux
Led Bib – Sensible Shoes
Lisa Hannigan – Sea Sew
Speech Debelle – Speech Therapy
Sweet Billy Pilgrim – Twice Born Men
The Horrors – Primary Colours
The Invisible – The Invisible

And the super buzz Little Boots is no where near the list. Too bad. If Kings Of Leon were nominated. It's so going to be a sure fire win. Lol. At least that's what I think.
My friend owns the Friendly Fire's album--It's not really my taste, but it sure sounds like an album you'd be interested in.
Geez... I might call off this hiatus, I can't help blogging even when I'm on Holiday.
