This week's show looks ahead to the Mercury prize, to be dished out to one of 12 nominees next Tuesday (7 September). Alexis Petridis is joined by Rosie Swash, Alex Needham and Michael Hann to discuss albums by Dizzee Rascal, Paul Weller, Foals, Corinne Bailey Rae, Mumford & Sons and Biffy Clyro, and there are interviews with Kit Downes Trio, Laura Marling, the XX, Wild Beasts, I Am Kloot and Villagers. The panel also give their verdict on who they think will walk away with the prize – and who they think deserves it.
Let us know your thoughts on this year's prize (and friend us on Facebook and Twitter), and we'll be back next week.
