Neptune Music Prize - Your Last Chance to Vote!
sean by Sean Adams September 7th, 2009

Today is your last chance to vote in the Neptune Music Prize.

You may remember, several weeks ago we revealed our alternative Mercury Music Prize nominees and now you have but a few hours left to vote before we close the voting booth at 3pm today and announce the winner shortly after.

If you haven't already voted, want to change your vote or can't remember what you rated, visit drownedinsound.com/neptune and vote now!

How does it work? Registered users (and it only takes a minute to register, for free!) can rate all of the albums, but we encourage you to only rate the albums you've heard (listen to them all on Spotify here). If you're not registered, sign-up now. It takes mere seconds. Please Note: You are now able to rate all albums on the site (average user scores to follow).

Then what? At 3pm on September 7th voting will close, and the winner of the Neptune Prize will be announced.

The prize itself? DiS'll take the winning band out for a fish (& chip) supper at their convenience.

The Twelve Nominated Albums (in no particular order) are as follows:

  • Manic Street Preachers Journal For Plague Lovers
  • Emmy the Great First Love
  • Late Of The Pier Fantasy Black Channel
  • The Phantom Band Checkmate Savage
  • The Maccabees Wall of Arms
  • Super Furry Animals Dark Days/Light Years
  • Patrick Wolf The Bachelor
  • PJ Harvey & John Parish A Woman A Man Walked By
  • Micachu Jewellery
  • The Week That Was The Week That Was
  • Grammatics Grammatics
  • Rolo Tomassi Hysterics
