Haahhhahahahahahhhhaaa. -dying- What a joke. Excuse me while I go puke because of the obvious crap that is Kerrang.

Ooooooh FUCK !

Muse I love you sooo much ><

Enter Shikari is a great band but I have to say ... Muse in live is the best thing you could ever see ... Muse rules, Muse rocks, say it like you want.

Muse is the best live band of this part of the milky way <3

WTF? Aiden should have won this.../

MOTHERFUCKERS!
WHY!
THEY'RE SHIT LIVE!

GAH!

I am wondering ... is anyone happy with this result ? ><

Muse were robbed! lol

I totally agree

Muse, Muse, Muse ! Consider this award as yours, anyway xD

Really, just went through the horror of listening to them on youtube. How much talentless do you have to be to even suck at screaming? Pffft. Muse should have won that award no questions.

i still luv ur live act muse
ur all selfish 2 words
WEMBLEY STADIUM

Lostprophets should've won...

awwwwwh i was hoping for lostprohets they rock..!

i love them ..!

yeah lostprophets all the way, they are so amazing live!!

omg enter shikari suck!!!!hw could they bet lostprophets and muse??!!dat is so gay!!!!
stuppid glow stick gays!!!!!!

Once you've seen Muse in live, you can't even think that another band is better ... Even not Lostprophets ;)

Ha! The fact that Muse didnt win is stupidity.

lostprophets so should have won that...

well i actually think this was well deserved. WELL DONE SHIKARI!!

LOSTPROPHETS SHOULD HAVE WON IT!!

urgh. that sucks. lostprophets, aiden or muse should have won.

angels and airwaves should have won!! ok maybe their not the best live band but its tom delonge!!!( what more do you need!)lol and the band are awesome

Now i guess it was expected i mean enter are like the band of the moment but
MUSE and wembley that was awsome i mean WHY and yes i voted for muse

Yeah Muse may be better live
But they dont need that award...They've won Best Live Act tons of times in other awards :)

Amee ----> agree
Lostprophets or Muse should win this award

is it me or do the awards seem abit fixed to you?

they do seem a bit fixed most of the bands that r winnin are the band of the moment like madina lake and enter shikari i mean muse and lostprophets or aiden deserve it more spsh muse they nearly made me cry at wembley
Oh well Muse u r the winners to me

Muse were robbed. Best. Live. Band. Ever.

ASIFF!
that crap won!!
Lostprophets should have won!!
or Muse!

GET IN what a result well done lads !! and yes they are amazin live

To be honest, I wanted Lost Prophets, Muse or Enter Shikari to win anyway. :/

No way should Enter Shikari won the only reason they did is because most of their fans are scene and scenes are taking over the world
don't get me wrong enter shikari is an ok band but aiden should have won or lostprophets i went to see them both and they are miles better than ES
so kerrang! i am not happy lol

WHAT. THE. FUCK.
bull shit
aiden should have won

Okay tbh with you.
Enter Shikari are okay, but Aiden are a lot better live.
They've seriously got more energy and I think they care about their fans a lot more.

I'm well gutted about that.
Damn ES.
Aiden should've won.
I love them.

I cannot fucking believe ES beat MUSE as Live band!? That is just not on damn it! Muse are FAAAAR more superior than them :(

WHAT A LOAD OF B@*#~x muse are the best live band around, did anybody go top the gig at wembley, it was amzong!

What everyone is forgetting is it is the best live band award, it's how entertaining they are live, Enter Shikari have amazing stage presence and get the crowd involved. As Muse are all playing instruments, the sound will be good but they can't get the crowd going aswell.
And Lost Prophets are not as good as both as they don't have many punchy sing-along songs.
So please everyone stop abusing the bands.
What the fuck do you know?

Im sorry
but no way should they have won that

ENTER SHIKARI ARE NO WAY AS GOOD AS AIDEN LIVE

Are people blind?
Or do they have no sense?
ARGH!
I LOVE YOU AIDEN
x

Lmfao this is a joke.
Who is actually happy with this result?
Seriously, who the hell voted for Enter Shikari?
Muse should of won this BY FAR. Would love to see Shikari try and pack out Wembley.
Or Lostprophets. Saw them again last night and they blew me away. Again :P
These awards are so fucking fixed.

You are having a fucking laugh right? How the fuck did they win, they suck!
<3

lostprophets or aiden should have won this.

To the person who said lostprophets don't have 'many punchy sing-along songs' well what do you call last train home thats fucking amazing live and rooftops i could go on and on and on..................................

I have seen Muse and Enter Shikari in live. I like Enter Shikari's music but I have to say that they don't really care about the public ... Saying two or three words ... And technically they are beginners.

Muse talk a lot to the public and there is so much emotion when Matt sings and when they three play music ... Muse in live makes me cry everytime. In great places like in Wembley Stadium or even in smaller events, like festivals, they rule. Their show is amazing, in every way. Emotionnally, technically, visually, ... whatever you can say, Muse do it <3

Concerning Lostprophets, they're better than ES in live but not as powerful as Muse

I have never seen Aiden or A&A in live so ... for me, Muse is the best. Definitely robbed tonight.

Love you, Muse
Love you, Muse fans

Aiden is so awesome Live! Hats off to them.

Why don't all you little emo-whiners just shut the fuck up. I've seen Muse, Lostprophets and Enter Shikari live and tbh Enter Shikari are the best. Why? Because ES have more energy and have fun when they entertain the crowds. Muse just stand there playing one song after another. I voted for ES, and so did many other people obviously, and that's how they won. Fuck.

shit...i voted muse all day, they SO should have won!
no offence but although shikari have talent they could never do wembley!

ES won, you're supposed to be happy
Don't say fuck =D

Well, I think Lostprophets should have won, I've seen them twice and they are awesome! I'm seeing Enter Shikari in November, so I'll be able to judge. :D

livi => I have voted for Muse hundreds times every day since two weeks =D
Sure they should have won

well i think Aiden sud have won. Enter Shikari r jst chavs hu think dey r ose.

Lostprophets should have won...LOVE YOU GUYS X

enter shikari do disurve to win this there fukin awsome live and there the best band around at the moment!!!

im not a big fan of enter shikari but i saw them at G.I.A.N n they were incredible n deserve best liveband

although i did vote for lostprophets :)

enter shikari are the fukin most amazing band, GET OVER IT LOSERS, CHAVS?!

FUCK YOU ALL ENTER SHIKARI ARE AMAZING LIVE
FUCK YOU
FUCK YOU
AND

FUCK YOU

my chem should of been in the award they are fucking amazing live!!!!!!!!!! xoxo

I have seen all of these bands live and I must say, the winner by far should have been muse. Nobody can even touch them on a live performance. Everybody who has seen Muse live will agree with me on this one. All of the bands there have a special live performance, but come on, be serious here guys

Muse should've won hands down.
Or even Lostprophets.

This is BULLSHIT. It should have been MUSE. They were incredible at Wembley.

MUSE

ps. MCR should have been up for the award too.

MCR + MUSE = FTW

what!!!!


OMG who votes for these things????

Enter Shikari don't deserve anything. Especially not live act. Muse should have won, NOTHING can even come close to them. They are beautiful,amazing,technically outstanding live. Oh, and if not them, Lostprophets. Who were amazing at the Astoria the other night.

oh my good god

just one thing to say

could enter shikari sell out wembley 2 nights in a row??

didnt think so

x

Should have been Muse, and i see im not the only one saying that. I bought Shikari's album about 2 months ago and listened to it for an couple hours, havent touched it since... bought Black holes when it was released and listened to it for a solid week, plus saw Muse at both Meadowbank and the Secc... nuff said.

all Enter Shikari fans were listening to shit like nelly and justin timberland a year ago and now think they know all about rock music. thier all move on next year to the "next Enter Shikari" snd this years winners will last shorter then the darkness

hah, i had the misfortune of seeing ES at download, it was absolute crap. I thought i was being prejudiced against them and listened to them for a bit (i was waiting for korn lol) but it was just totally naff, nothing to it if you ask me

thats the funniest thing ive ever heard i heard them at download it was like someone scratching a blackboard muse or lostprophets should of won they are truely amazing live

I was at wembley in june (sunday) and whoever thought that muse weren't the best live act must have been washing their hair that night. Another case of don't know what you're talking about. No offence to ES but you have a long way to go boys until you get in the same league as Muse.

muse shudda won
*cries*
and if not muse well lostprophets :[

AAAAAH WHAT THE FUCK? BULLSHIT.

As everyone knows, MUSE should have won this award (especially after the Wembley gigs, which were officially the best thing ever)

I have lost all respect for Kerrang now

What a load of shit

These awards are mean bullshit to me.

Muse didn't win Best British Band, they lost to some Welsh sheep shaggers, but MUSE not winning BEST LIVE ACT, a title they very, nearly always win. That's just taking the utter PISS.

K!, if you're reading, YOU'RE FKING WANK!

again. utter fucking nonsense! wtf are the ppl on who vote in these things!!!!!!!!!

EVERYONE knows Muse piss all over enter shikari (and any other band for that matter)!!

Having seen both these acts live. Muse are light years ahead, seriously.

What more could they have done in the last year to win it?

Headline Reading, sell out Wembley Stadium and countless other places in the world with at times quite innovative music.

All ES have produced are things that have been done before, they do cause mayhem at thier gigs but then any band worthy of mention do.

Thats not enough to be called a great live act and this award proves people like cheap thrills more than substance which is quite sad.

MUSE are the best live band hands down, the others nominated are all very similar but MUSE are a step above.

Once you have seen MUSE live everything elts is just a disappointment. No one can live up to MUSE live.

emo is silly, don't worry you'll grow out of it. ;)

Aiden should have won!
not nter shikari
eugh

MUSE deserved this award more than anyone else... they put up an amazing show at wembley, tbh all of their gigs I have seen so far were just plain GREAT, but wembley was more than great, it was ALIEN. wow.
they will always be the best live band to me :)

Remember: The K! Awards were "voted" for - not by - 12 year old fashion victims, not music fans. Kerrang! has a demographic to keep happy. Kerrang! is a joke.

ES deserved it

they are the best live, have most energy
n get the crowd really going

lost prophets are now shit, old stuff was good tho =]

and i havent seen muse.

Lostprophets should have won that award.
I went to see them and they were fuckin amzin better than Enter Shikari!!

LostProphets are better !!!

you haters are all stupid, i bet you've never experienced shikari live. absolutely fuckin amazing. shikari deserved to win that hands down. MUSE ARE SHIT. HAHAHAHAHA
SHIKARI
SHIKARI
SHIKARI
SHIKARI
SHIKARI
SHIKARI

I've seen both.

Can you say the same narrow minded one?

Shikari deserved this for sure. Though the others are great live Shikari are doing something with their live shows now that no other band are capable of. Ive seen all these bands live and no one gets a response from their audience like Shikari. They may not everyones cup of tea but it's undeniable when you see their fans going crazy. Love em or hate em, show them respect.

Muse or Aiden should've won that.
What a load of crap.

FAO ED

What exactly do they do live that is so different? Trash the stage, climb the rafters and jump into the crowd? Cos thats all they did when I went to see them. They are no different to average live acts in my opinion.

Good crowd motivators though but the very best bands only need the music to do that.

A good band yes but over hyped in the extreme.

Should've been Muse or Lostprophets. Kerrang! is stupid to call ES best live band coz they said themselves in the magazine they're not good live. Pah.

Enter Shikari are good and a pretty good live act as well (they where class at GIAN this year) but c'mon? Muse should of won this hands down! Ah well, atleast Aiden or Angels And Airwaves didn't win.

Now that sucks!
Who would vote for ES. THEY SUCK!
We all know thisaward belongs to Muse even if they didn't win.
Have ES played Wembley. NO! Muse have!
Muse were robbed of the award!

YOUR ALL GAY
Aiden should have won easy!!!
best
band
ever
however, well done Enter Shikari =] i dont care how much i love Aiden
im not gunna be pissed off cuz they didnt win, cuz im not a retard like all these other gimps.

I was just looking at the other posts on best album where all the little emos were crying saying MCR were robbed of the best album award by the mighty fucking machine head.
They fail to accept a more talented band won.

But this..
This is a disgusting decision. I seen Muse at Wembley, it was fucking special. a band that plays two consecutive nights at Wembley Stadium will always hands down, deserve the Best Live Award.

I am disgusted.

SHut UP All U EMOS HU LUV AIDEN AND MCR ENTER SHIKARI WON AND THEY DESERVED IT AS THEY ROCK
IF U G O SEE THEM THEN MAYBE ULL CHANGE UR MINDS ABOUT THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right ¬! ES Deserve dis award cuz dey worked shitloadz to get were dey r ! they made there own record company ! and they became soo good that they get backed up by bands like hundred reasons ! and they av only relised one majour album ! so yer they deseve it but hard luck on muse dey are amazing but adein..........nothin need to be sed xXx

Good response Lauraaa. Feisty. But I'm gonna have to pick apart of trample on your response. Think how much money Muse used to put on their gigs, especially wembley, with all the lights, projections and stage show. Enter have nothing on that scale. A couple of laser lights, which, though they're cool, arent anything in comparison. When they play on far smaller stages they get their crowd going from just them on stage. Did you see them at Earls Court? They ruled that day. No other band compared. See them on just a foot high stage and see what they can do. Put any of the other bands on one and they couldn't beat it. x
