Britain’s music industry almost universally applauded Manchester band Elbow’s 2008 Mercury Awards victory, and a year on the band is back in the studio saying life has changed “dramatically.” Seen as a good-guy group in a shark-infested business, the five-piece band won the prize for the album “The Seldom Seen Kid,” confirming its status as one of the decade’s most innovative British bands.

“Life has changed dramatically since winning the Mercury Prize,” drummer Richard Jupp said. “It has allowed our music to reach

a whole new audience and thrust us into the more mainstream arena.”

The Mancunians re-released their 2001 debut album, “Asleep In the Back,” this week, complete with bonus tracks and a DVD. And with increased exposure comes increased expectation, but having been together for 12 years the band is well placed to deal with any pressure as it starts work on its fifth studio album.
