As predicted/hoped, Caribou wins the 2008 Polaris Prize.
Amateur video of the proceedings below (even though I just spoiled it for you):
After 2005's The Milk of Human Kindness, it seemed like there was nowhere else to go. How could Dan Snaith pull off another album on such an epic scale? Andorra takes it all to the next level. The sunny 60s pop, the 70s krautrock, and the 80s shoegaze, it all come together in one hell of an album. A great selection this year for the prize.
