In all a very pedestrian list.
E.S.T okay....Anna T? TSSOL....hrm
E.S.T and Eric Prydz & Eric Prydz the only truely INT acts on the list...

Does anyone have any thoughts on these winners.... who else should have got a nod?

Afasi & Filthy really did put out the best Swedish hip-hop album last year, as far as I'm concerned. Otherwise, I agree that it's a very predictable list. In Flames? c'mon. There's so many more deserving bands.

I agree it's very predictable. No Markus Krunegård or Juvelen. And Kleerup best producer? What about Björn Yttling or Jari Haapalainen?

Agreed, re Afasi & Filthy - they did a song a while back, the lyrics were hilarious. "Paris Hilton har skaffat silikon.....jag kunde inte bryr mig mindre"
