My Chemical Romance were the big winners at this evening’s Shockwaves NME Awards ceremony at the O2 Academy in Brixton.  Winning Best International Band and Best Video, they were the only act to bag two awards.

Elsewhere, Muse won Best British Band, Biffy Clyro won Best Live Band and Laura Marling grabbed Best Solo Artist.  The most-nominated band, Oxford-based Foals, only managed to win Best Track from their five nominations, and the Arcade Fire only won Best Album from their foru nominations, which made them the most nominated international band on the evening.
Hurts beat Liam Gallagher’s Beady Eye to Best New Band while NME honoured Dave Grohl, PJ Harvey and Crystal Castles in the awards categories chosen by the magazine.
