Shockwaves NME Awards 2010 - Best Album Artwork Nomination

like in the title.

Best Album Artwork
Muse – 'The Resistance'
Green Day – '21st Century Breakdown'
Kasabian – 'West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum'
The Cribs – 'Ignore The Ignorant'
Manic Street Preachers – 'Journal For Plague Lovers '

if Muse wins again that would be completely UNFAIR.

the rest can be seen here

The best artwork thread may be more deserved but is it as funny?

I bet some dudes from Muse will win. God, with all respect, but Matt Bellamy looks like the ugly mix of Thom Yorke and Jeff Buckley. urgh.

I'm not sure - what we need is someone who understands technology but doesn't want to cruely sabotage Wires dreams of being hot.

When you click it says you think he's hot but that may be a lie

I adore Muse, but the Manics' cover is better than theirs, if only for the controversy and the fact that Lydia made such fabulous stickers.

hmm, I think I've determined thats not what we need to vote Wire but I don't know what we do need...damn being so old and unable to understand computers.

With the picture if they could just go say another ten years back someone might be averaging better than 2.80

They've made it sneakier since 2007 - I think with the example above, http://www.nme.com/rate/hottestmale2...ast/65/rate/10, the '65' is Nicky's number, and the '56' is the number of the next person who loads (in this case SImon from the Klaxons). So if you enter http://www.nme.com/rate/hottestmale2010/65/last/a number other than 65/rate/1 and then click on '10' you should be able to vote Nicky 10.

It's probably a good idea to set your internet options to not accept cookies from nme.com

My little cousin is a Muse fan, I can almost guarantee that she's one of the people currently keeping Matt Bellamy at the top spot. She is young, she will learn.
