Which is Nicky Wire. And that was one of the most heartfelt choices of cover they had that year, considering the article too.

I wasn't implying that Elliot Smith shouldn't be on the cover. I was making a statement about the nme picking random cult artists for their cover.

I miss Elliott Smith. He was a unique voice and great songwriter. To answer the question though, maybe NME has been influenced Mojo, a far superior British music magazine.
