Polaris nominees announced 2008-07-09 by Iai EMERITUS | 4 Comments | Canada's answer to the Shortlist and Mercury Music prizes today announced its shortlist for this year's award.
Black Mountain - In The Future
Plants And Animals - Parc Avenue
Basia Bulat - Oh, My Darling
Stars - In Our Bedroom After The War
Caribou - Andorra
Shad - The Old Prince
Kathleen Edwards - Asking For Flowers
Two Hours Traffic - Little Jabs
Holy Fuck - LP
The Weakerthans - Reunion Tour
According to the Sputnik masses, the winner should be The Weakerthans, despite Nick Greer's unenthusiastic review. Hmmm. This will be the third Polaris prize, following wins for Final Fantasy and Patrick Watson in 2006 and 2007 respectively.

Either Caribou or the Weakerthnas, though Black Mountain ain't bad.

I saw a totally different Polaris list from some people in the Canadian biz like three months ago. Not that Im surprised, most people in the industry here are insane. This reminds me that I've been meaning to look into Shad.
