The XX Wins Mercury Prize
The XX just won the Barclaycard Mercury Prize for their gorgeous debut album, XX. Awesome pick! That's my favorite album nominated this year--first time that's happened.
Yes! It's quite excellent. If you click on the XX link in this post, you can read my album review. It was one of my favorite albums of last year. I wasn't aware of the popjustice prize, but that does sound like an odd choice.
