Polaris Music Prize (Canada's version of the Mercury Prize)
I think every country should have an award like The Mercury Prize. Canada have just had one for the first time called The Polaris Prize. This was the short list:
Broken Social Scene - 'Broken Social Scene' Cadence Weapon - 'Breaking Kayfabe' The Deadly Snakes - 'Porcella' Final Fantasy - 'He Poos Clouds' Sarah Harmer - 'I'm a Mountain' K'NAAN - 'The Dusty Foot Philosopher' Malajube - 'Trompe L'oeil' Metric - 'Live It Out' The New Pornographers - 'Twin Cinema' Wolf Parade - 'Apologies to the Queen Mary' ...and the winner was...Final Fantasy - 'He Poos Clouds'. I'm quite happy with that, it's a very good album after you've given it about 5 listens ....although I would have preferred Wolf Parade to win as I absolutely love their album.I prefer that list to this year's Mercury Prize and I think next year it could be even better....Canada is HOT at the moment .
