NME Awards 2008 - Full List Of Winners

Thursday night saw the Shockwaves NME Awards take place, the cooler, somewhat more indie version of The Brits. The results were a mixture of surprises and the totally predictable, but one thing which was missing this year was any real controversy.
The Arctic Monkeys emerged as the big winners on the night, taking home three awards, […]
