Just voted, and so far I'm the only one. The leader is Franz Ferdinand who only has 2 votes, so we can obviously win this thing...you've got to register but it took me a total of less than 2 minutes to get there and cast my vote.

I don't know how important this is, but if it's published it's good press for The Features.

I find it very interesting that Blonde Redhead is on that list.

and the Shins. I thought they already kinda made a name for themselves. If not a couple of years ago, at least this past year.

That was the conspicuous one for me. I love 'em tho, so I have no problem with them finishing 2nd on this list.

This website has a listing of upcoming shows...seems an apt place for The Features to be included? Too bad I have no real power as the F.I.S.T...

I'd vote, but it's not giving me the option to vote, but I'd vote for The Features of course.

we're 8 votes down now, and looks like other band's fans have finally discovered this poll as well.

Or they could just be pulling what I'm considering, which is numerous member names. But I think that would be unfair, seeing as how I doubt any of us even read this magazine....we may not be the best representation of their readerers, but I truly believe we're doing what's right!
That's so NA.

I think the poll is closed now, because the editor was on BBC 6music earlier giving the top ten out.



The Features made it to......





are you ready?......






Number 7!


That's not bad going, seeing as they're only just starting to make a name for themselves in the UK. Franz Ferdinand were at Number 1, rather predictably.

Which is nice, seeing as they are pretty crap. Justified, even.
