    Well none of my top 3 albums of the year (Morrissey-you are the quary,McLusky- the difference between me and you is im not on fire,Mission of burma on off on) even made the long list.
    Belle & Sebastian, "Dear Catastrophe Witness"
    Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros, "Streetcore"
    Are the best on the long list but neither made the pretty crappy shortlist.

    Fairly crap shortlist alright compared to some of the great albums they had to pick from on the long list, if I was to bet I think it will be won by
    Franz Ferdinand - "Franz Ferdinand"
