His blog entry was remarkably understated. "I'm a low key person, and I just want to make some tunes… nothing else" Whether this will be possible seems to hinge squarely on the result of the Mercury Prize on September 9th and until then is open to conjecture. Or maybe Will Bevan is just another subterfuge, and perhaps somewhere a silhouette has succeeded in pulling off the greatest trick of all, Keyser like, by convincing the world he does exist.

The postscript here is also an obvious one - Untrue is now heavily favoured to win, feted beyond In Rainbows and also an underwhelmingly derivative effort from Alex Turner's side project The Last Shadow Puppets. Should it fulfil this promise, it also genuinely signifies the end/beginning of an era; dubstep as a parent genre is almost unique in its sense of isolationism, music created in bedrooms during the early hours of the morning by the solitary light of a computer screen; like guilt and jealousy, it’s also best consumed alone, whilst wandering through the corridors of the nocturnal mind.
