Klaxons (pictured) and Jamie T were among the winners at last night's Shockwaves NME Awards, held at the doomed Hammersmith Palais.
The former scooped the middle finger in the Best New Band category, while Mr T took home the top prize in the Best Solo Artist field, beating off competition from Lily Allen who, a la the Brits, left with nothing.
Well, nearly nothing: Allen was voted the worst-dressed musical celebrity of the past 12 months by readers of NME. The nasty boys and girls.
Here are the winners in all their gory glory:
Best British Band - Muse Best International Band - My Chemical Romance Best Solo Artist - Jamie T Best New Band - Klaxons Best Live Band - Kasabian Philip Hall Radar Award - The Twang John Peel Innovation Award - Enter Shikari Best Album - Arctic Monkeys, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not Best Track - The View, 'Wasted Little DJs' Best Video - The Killers, 'Bones' Best Music DVD - Arctic Monkeys, Scummy Man Best Live Event - Carling Weekend, Reading and Leeds Best TV Show - The Mighty Boosh Best Radio Show - Zane Lowe, Radio 1 Best Film - Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest Sexiest Man - Matt Bellamy Sexiest Woman - Kate Moss Worst Band - Panic! At The Disco Worst Album - Robbie Williams, Rudebox Worst Dressed - Lily Allen Best Dressed - Faris Rotter, The Horrors Villain Of The Year - George W Bush Hero Of The Year - Gerard Way, My Chemical Romance Best Venue - Carling Brixton Academy Best Website - YouTube
Don't worry readers: hardly anyone that wins that Philip Hall award does owt with themselves. Beyond that though, we think it's all pretty much deserved... right?
