Here’s an article to help you decide on any “doubtful” categories (like “newcomer”) :

Yep, yep... But if we (Roxers from all over the world) don’t vote – chances are even smaller.... Cos Kent is a Great band, their last CD is also my fave one out of theirs, BUT: they aren’t so popular outside Scandinavia (unfortunately). (OK, I myself won’t be disappointed if they win :).... But others will be! So: go, people, vote!!! These are important awards!

“Årets svenska grupp:
Kent vinner. Det törs jag ta gift på. De har alltid sopat banan med Rockbjörns-konkurrenterna när de varit aktuella och nu är de större än någonsin. The Ark, Caesar”s palace, The Hellacopters och The Hives lär ha chans att gå vidare, kanske även Roxette trots att de bara gett ut en samling - men ingen ruckar Kent här.”
This is the prediction of Per Bjurman (that guy in Aftonbladet that hates Roxette as much as he’s able to :DDD)
“Swedish band of the year:
Kent wins. I dare to take it for granted. They have always swept the way of Rockbjörns competitors when they were of current interest, and now they are bigger than ever. The Ark, Caesar’s palace, The Hellacopters and The Hives are said to have a chance to go further, maybe even Roxette even though they just have released a compilation - but no one changes Kent here”.
I have to agree with him, Roxette has no chance to win this year, Kent is very much alive, have just made two videos for 1 single, have released their best album ever (personal opinion), have released 3 singles lately, they are really great and Sweden loves them. Sorry P&M...
Sorry if there are mistakes in the translation, I am not a Swede.
