So essentially, you're discounting the awards handed out by the music industry based on the preferences of the music industry because you don't like nine previous/current nominees? Are we really complaining that a group like The Pussycat Dolls got nominated for a dance track in the dance category or Seth MacFarlane got nominated for releasing a pop/standards album in a weak year for the genre?

Can we just give all the awards to Adele and be done with it? I feel like that would be easiest, and a better outcome than what's likely to happen (for instance, if Firework wins over Rolling in the Deep, I will have an in-home riot to express my anger.)

Pajiba,

FUCK YOUR NEW POP-UP ADVERT THAT TAKES HALF THE GODDAMN SCREEN. APP BLOCKED.

Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance:

Dream Theater – “On The Backs of Angels”
Foo Fighters – “White Limo”
Mastodon – “Curl of the Burl”
Megadeth – “Public Enemy No. 1″
Sum 41 – “Blood In My Eyes”

I'm sorry, did you say Sum fucking 41? This is why Hard Rock & Metal should never share a category. Because all it means is that Mastodon is going to get fucking robbed. Again.

YEAH YEAH I know no one gives a shit. But goddamn it, man.

SHouldn't Adele's "Someone like you" be nominated instead of "Rolling in the Deep"? Everyone and there mama bought that song after the VMA's.

I was going to download it myself but the album version is slightly different from the live performance. I first heard that song on the VMA's and she sings it better live. I didn't buy it. I'll wait for the live version. Anyway..........

Intellectually I get Bon Iver and have both For Emma and Bon Iver and have listened to them numerous times. The are musically very good and I get that. Also, I think that Sean Carey is a very interesting person and I would love to know him.
But, in the end I always take their music off of whatever device I have, because I just can't get into it. I don't like them. Just me?

I LIKE Bowling for Soup. Yeah, I said it and I'm PROUD.

Bon Iver is like soccer or race car driving - I don't deny the tremendous skill involved, but wow is it bloody boring.

Yes, Ghisent that is very apt description!

What a joke. This is the reason I don't listen to the radio. Red Hot Chili Peppers were nominated for best alternative album and it's their worst since Red Hot Minute. Not having Anthrax in the metal category is ridiculous. At least they didn't nominate that godawful Metallica/Lou Reed monstrocity.

Good on Mumford & Sons and Adele. Shit to the rest of it.

Where is Frank Turner's "England Keep My Bones" on here? I keep re-reading the list, but I still don't see it. Is it in code inside the other nominations? It must be in code, that's the only explanation. Let's see here, Skrillex isn't a word so that must be the key. What is Nicki Minaj? Is that an anagram? It solves to: Jack Mini In. Hmmm...mini. Mini is another word for small. Jack Small! It's starting to all make sense now. Grammy award folk, you devious bastards! Now we're getting somewhere...

Great to see some Frank Turner love TylerDFC!
He's the best, I have seen him in concert three times. I am totally hooked.

I saw him when he opened for Flogging Molly. That was a shitshow and the only time I have ever been in a fight. Also, we chatted. He's super down to earth and cool. I recommend it. Any idea of if it's a full band show or just him?

....It took six people to write 'Grenade'?

Cool, I just looked and he's nowhere near me. But, I have seen both full band and him and his guitar. Both very worth it. I enjoyed the full band better, but that may have partially been b/c I was front row like a little groupie girl :)

It was a crazy night, Ghisent. I blame the city of Rochester, NY.

Shut up about Five for Fighting. I love "100 years."

Shut up about that too!

Am I the only person that runs a pop up blocker? People are constantly bitching about the ads and other than the ocassional side ad I have no idea what they are talking about.

Amanda6,

I totally agree about MBDTF. I mean, that is seriously an excellent album.

Red Hot Chili Peppers have sucked since Blood Sugar Sex Magic.

I love the firework song. Not the Katy Perry version but the song itself. I heard a gospel singer belt it out acapella and her version blew me away. Granted she momentarily got the giggles when she got to the "ah ah ah" part but it's still a powerful song when sung by an artist with actual vocal talent.

That being said, Adele is just better.

The Grammys should be called The Top 40 Awards and I don't listen to any of that crap. I can proudly say I have never sat through an entire Grammy show. Never missed an Emmy or Oscar telecast but will not watch the Grammys, especially while Kanye West is still on the planet.

Bruno Mars, Katy Perry, K$sha, Gaga, Lil Wayne, Rihanna..

this is not music, this is ear slop.

Ok. Look.
Say what you will about Bon Iver's music. I love all of it, and Holocene is without question my favourite song on this list. But that's not the point. For Emma came out forever ago. (see what I did there?) There's nothing "new" about it.

Also, The Cave? Really? Didn't Mumford and Sons perform it at the Grammys last year?

At least The Civil Wars got nominated.

why isn't taylor swift on this list?

I am so happy that Dearest is on here. The Black Keys made the best track on that whole Buddy Holly tribute thing.

Also I can't stay awake for Bon Iver but the dude was on an amazing album called Hadestown that everybody should buy. So I won't completely write him off. Maybe he should stick to other people's songs?

Ugh....I've made better sounds after All You Can Eat Brisket Night at Morrie's Affordable Meat Palace.

Ukulele Songs by Eddie Vedder
How the hell did I not hear of this earlier?

Skrillex is horrrrible. It's the official soundtrack to Montezuma's Revenge. It's what they play in Room 23 on the LOST island. It's the result of the Infinite Monkeys thing, but with blenders full of wood screws instead of typewriters.

Argh I'm torn between my love of Adele and my love of Mumford & Sons. Also, yes, Gaga was robbed (she might be insufferably crazy, but those are some good pop songs).
Everyone else can go lick an electrical socket.

Not one single fucking album in any of these fucking categories ESPECIALLY Album of the Year could even survive in the same room with Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, and I will get in a 1 v. 100 alleyway brawl with the Grammy voters to defend that point.

I'm even glad to see Bon Iver get this much love, because his new album is great and "Holocene" is gorgeous, but if it beats "All of the Lights," I'm gonna choke someone on Kanye's behalf.

FUCK BRUNO MARS

Let's see here, Skrillex isn't a word so that must be the key. What is Nicki Minaj? Is that an anagram?

I'm just highlighting this comment here so that person can look back on it in future years to mark the date they were officially confirmed to be an old fart.

I became just browsing occasionally in addition to you just read this post. I need to admit that we are within the hand of luck today if not owning such an excellent write-up to determine wouldn’t are achievable for me, at the incredibly least. Really enjoy your content.

I refuse to believe it took six people to write "Grenade".
