Arctic Monkeys’ AM hasn’t gone wanting for recognition over past 12 months, and last night it picked up yet another gong as Independent Album of the Year at the AIM Independent Music Awards.

Designed to celebrate the strength of British independent music, the awards ceremony also honoured London Grammar as Independent Breakthrough Of The Year, while Twin Atlantic’s ‘Heart & Soul’ picked up Independent Track Of The Year.

Elsewhere, Domino Records scooped Independent Label of The Year for their work with the likes of Wild Beasts, Blood Orange and Alex Turner’s gang of Black Sabbath fans. Hyperdub, home to Burial and Ikonika, won Best Small Label, and Beggars Group Founder and Chairman Martin Mills was handed the prestigious Pioneer Award.

Mills founded the Beggars Group in 1977 and has gone onto to release albums by Gary Numan, The Cult, Pixies and Radiohead amongst countless others. Mills’ victory was honoured by a special video tribute featuring The National, XL’s Richard Russell and Rough Trade’s Jeanette Lee.

"This means more than anything..." said Mills upon receiving the award.
