You should put 'artist - video/song/album/etc.' throughout as you can see how this would be confusing:

For all you wondering about the results, I have the results for all but two categories right now which are singles and music videos and they will be counted soon (I hope to do it tomorrow) but as soon as I have done I'll post the results here.

Sorry for not delivering them earlier

Also on that note if you wish to change you're nominees for either of the two categorises you can just make sure to do it soon please

[justanothername]

Just a small side note, I didn't do any recounts except for singles as first of all it took long enough as it did already and I couldn't be bothered to do it again, second most of them were easy to track anyway (except for singles and music videos due to artists could be nominated more than once) so I felt fine not doing it. But if you outraged and demand a recount...do it yourself

Edited January 8, 2015 by justanothername

[justanothername]

Also congrats to Queens Of The Stone Age to (probably) being the winners of the awards with a total of 3 wins out of the 4 categories they could have won!

Some other intresting things also include that there was a 3 way tie for 4th place in albums with Weezer, Death From Above 1979 and St Vincent getting 17 each. All the singles that Royal Blood released this year were nominated.

Arcade Fire best live act. Boom. Quite happy about that

Edit: Thanks again JAN for doing the counting.

So, Biffy suck?

[Babyquack]

Thought I'd reflect on 2013's results in comparison to this years:

2013 Efestivals Reading & Leeds Section Album Of The Year

1. Biffy Clyro - Opposites

2. QOTSA - ...Like Clockwork

3. Arcade Fire - Reflektor

2013 Efestivals Reading & Leeds Section Single Of The Year

1. Arctic Monkeys - Do I Wanna Know

2. Arcade Fire - Reflektor

3. QOTSA - My God Is The Sun

2013 Efestivals Reading & Leeds Section R&L Performance Of The Year

1. Biffy Clyro

2. SOAD

3. NIN

2013 Efestivals Reading & Leeds Section Best Live Band Of The Year

1. Biffy Clyro

2. QOTSA

3. Rolling Stones

As I said earlier the other two didn't really work out as the sample size was too small and the range of answers to wide to give decent results.

I'm surprised NIN didn't get into performance of the year considering they were third last year.

[justanothername]

Missed out that Kasabian drew with Royal Blood for best live

And to answer Babyquack question NIN came next with 17 and Biffy are still awesome

[LondonTom]

" 2. Taylor Swift - Blank Space (13)"

Fucks sake, I demand a recount!

People are a bit in love with Royal Blood in this forum !

[Gucci Piggy]

2013 - the year of the Biffy

2014 - the year of the QOTSA

2015 - the year of the Muse

[kaosmark2]

2015 - the year of the Muse
