2012 NME Award nominations

The nominations are in for this year's NME Awards, with some massive names battling it out.

The winners will be announced at the end of the month at Brixton's 02 Academy, in a ceremony that will see performances from Noel Gallagher, Kasabian and The Vaccines, as well as a collaboration between The Horrors and Florence + The Machine.

There are your typical categories here, like Best Video and Best Live Band, and also a few oddballs, like Hottest Male/Female and Hero/Villain Of The Year. Gallagher brothers Noel and Liam are nominated for hero and villain respectively - so sit back, grab some popcorn and watch the barrage of sibling rivalry tweeting begin.
