Who should've won the Mercury Prize (in the past)?

wonton [Edit] [Delete] 10:57, 30 October '13

Here's a list of winners and nominees: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_Prize#Winners_and_shortlisted_nominees but we don't have to be constricted by that. Obviously this is subjective and DiS centric, but only very rarely have the judges picked an album with true originality and lasting ability (Dummy or Let England Shake). So what do you think?

They missed a trick by not giving it to Burial for untrue. Having a dubstep winner would be like that time Ryan Giggs won player of the year aged 77.
