PLUG Award Winners

Well, the winners for this year's Plug Awards have been announced. I must say there were a few winners that I was disappointed to see getting awards. Am I really the only person out there who thinks that Sufjan Stevens (who ridiculously won three awards) would have been better placed in the "Most Overrated Artist of the Year" category? I mean his album won "Best Album of the Year" over Bloc Party - Silent Alarm?! Let the hate mail begin, but I really don't see what all the hype is about. And the biggest disappointment of all, Myspace winning "Best Music Website". You really must be kidding me, my apologies to other nominees who should have won, such as TheDopeFiend favorite Music For Robots.

On the other hand, a few much deserved awards go to Dangerdoom - The Mouse And The Mask for "Hip-Hop Album Of The Year", M83 - Before The Dawn Heals Us wins "Electronic/Dance Album Of The Year", Bloc Party - Silent Alarm takes the award for "Indie Rock Album Of The Year" and DJ Shadow goes home with "DJ Album Of The Year" for One Night in Bangkok.
