On peut voir que Fleet Foxes est le grand gagnant de l'année, et cela devrait être le cas également pour la presse française. En revanche on constate que les anglais ne s'enflamment pas plus que ça sur M.G.M.T, à juste titre. Ce qui ne sera pas le cas pour les Inrocks et consorts, on est prêt à parier. Bon aller : "Time To Pretend" chanson de l'année, mais c'est tout.
