Like I said, they always do it, 'build them up, knock them down'

That's NME for ya. Always out to save the world with its hateful and biased judgment.

Muse and Coldplay for worst band?....

 

They should both be competing for BEST band.

These are voted for by NME readers in case you were wondering about Muse.

 

I only go to NME.com for news, can't stand the average NME reader. Constantly moaning about how music needs saving. Irrelevant publication, ignorant readers.

 

Also, MX was pretty bad.

ooo already posted, woops. delete please

I can understand why Coldplay are up for 'Worst Band' (NME hates them for reasons known only to themselves), but why Muse? I thought NME loved Muse :confused:

So many things about NME annoy me that I'm not going to even start writing about it, I'll be up all night!

 

Still...I've got my beautiful NME copy from March 2000 to remind me how it used to be good...

 

Nice Chris and Will. :)

 

NME Awards are weird. :/

Chris and Jonny :P

Oops, I think Johnny may forgive me. :rolleyes:
