The band's current album 'The King Of Limbs' was their first since 2000 LP 'Kid A' not to receive a nomination. They have never won the prize.

Drummer Philip Selway admitted, "It would sound churlish to say we don't care. But when we were putting out 'The King Of Limbs' we knew it probably wasn't our most immediate record."

"It was important for us to make that record in that way but it wasn't put out with a view to getting Mercury nomination. So not being nominated isn't a huge disappointment really."

The sticksman also responded to recent comments made by Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis after he said it "may only have three years left".

Selway added, "That would be an enormous shame. It gets better year on year. I know there's a fallow year next year and one planned for the year after but I'd be surprised if that was it."

"Maybe it's like when they said they'd take Heinz salad cream off the market and then didn't, just to get people's interest up, or [BBC] 6 Music."
