TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly January 8th, 2008

The Cribs have won an award which says they had the best record sleeve of 2007.

Others in the top ten, put together by ArtVinyl.com, include Editors, the Rakes, Various Artists** and, curiously perhaps given they seemed to have ripped it from Kosheen, Interpol.

You can see the full original list from the official site, but here’s the top 10, no 20, no _25 for your perusal+(bemusement/polite accordance):

1 The Cribs - Men’s Needs Women’s Needs Whatever

2 Editors - _An End Has a Start

3 The Nextmen - ‘Let it Roll’
4 Eva Be - ‘No Memory of Time’

5 Thurston Revival - ‘Somewhere There’s An Angel’
6 Various Artists - We Are Silver

7 UNKLE - ‘Burn My Shadow’

8 The Rakes - Ten New Messages

9 Interpol - Our Love to Admire

10 Husky Rescue - ‘Caravan’

11 Elliott Smith - New Moon

12 Liars - Liars

13 Tunng - Good Arrows

14 Seelenuft - ‘Horse With No Name’

15 Air - Pocket Symphony

16 Me & You - Floating Heavy

17 Groove Armada - ‘Get Down’

18 Bloc Party - A Weekend in the City

19 Battles - Mirrored
20 Calvin Harris - ‘Colours’

21 The Chemical Brothers - ‘Do It Again’

22 White Stripes - Icky Thump
