Lamb Of God, Slayer among Grammy nominees

Nominees were announced yesterday for the 52nd annual Grammy Awards.

being nominated for a Grammy is not all that "metal" if you ask me.

they took the Judas Priest song from their newest live album. they had to include it to keep up with the same fcking bands they nominate every year.

Best Metal Performance? More like Most Mainstream Metal Band... Also did that someone actually say Emmure should win a Grammy?

Grundle_Gobbler 12/4/2009 10:39:25 AM

I'm surprised this hasn't stooped to the levels of nominating The Devil Wears Prada, Attack Attack, and Emmure.

DrowSwordsman 12/4/2009 11:26:58 AM

First, Emmure fcking sucks, what is with everyone thinking they should be on the list? Second, grammy's have been nominating the same fcking bands ever since they introduced the "best metal performance" act. All of these guys were has beens.

I'm honestly just happy they actually HAVE an award for metal now. For fcking ever they did not.

imcoolyournot 12/6/2009 9:37:34 PM

Oh and all you dumb shits think this is a bad list but these are actual SUCCESSFUL metal bands who make real money and a REAL career playing heavy music. Not saying I'm a fan of them but I'm not retarded and can recognize why they're nominated
