What the fuck? Surely 'Underground Music Awards' is a contradiction in terms?

"Congtulations! your band were the very best at remaining in a exclusive shadowy clique and expanding thier horizons by zero precent! May you enjoy many long years of playing the same shitty pub basements, sleeping on cider punks floors and never washing!"

How is it a contradiction in terms? The underground scene gives an award to the best band
I think it's kinda nice. It's not as if any of us are ever likely to get any other sort of recognition
 
I always thought one of the points of the 'underground' scene was that bands would help each other out instead of competing against each other. Awards like that just turn it into some sort of competition in my eyes, as if the 'winners' get to say "We're better than all you!". Load of bollocks I reckon, just another desperate grasp for recognition.
Unless it's just a big piss-take, in which case fair enough.

Also, I vote for George McFly's mate to take all the awards.
 
is there an 'indier-than-thou' award?








can't really see the point of this scheme. is the aim to make underground bands less underground by bringing them into the media glare?

what are the criteria to qualify as an underground band anyway?
