I know why they had this at club nokia @ la live!!!.....because across the street @ staples center is where they have the grammys. and crappy b/s music award shows voted by people that know absolutely nothing about music have to stick together.

Metal after 40 years finally gets a reward show in america and you guys are still not happy. No it is not perfect but at least they are trying we've come along way since jethro tull won the first metal grammy.

Please refer to this graphic, again.

A lot of the stuff being "honored" with these awards isn't even remotely respectable in my eyes.

Best drummer, Vinnie Paul Abbot? Not even close. Proscriptor McGovern from Absu destroys everything that guy's done in his whole career. Easily.

Best "underground metal" band = Isis? I like Isis and all, but shouldn't they have been getting that award like 7 years ago, when Oceanic came out? Maybe...but only maybe. This award should go to an actual underground band too...like Lord Weird Slough Feg. You know, a band that not many has heard of, still tour shit bars, but fucking kick ass? How about that?

Best album, Metallica? Miss.

Best riff, Slipknot?

Fuck you.

Most "mindblowing guitarist", Kerry King?

Slayer may be 'classic' and all but Kerry King is one of the most overrated guitar players of all time. He can't even remember those fucking "in the key of random" solos from the Reign in Blood days. What about really fucking talented guitar players like Mattias IA Eklundh or Jørn Viggo Lofstad? Terrible.

Best new talent: Suicide Silence - probably the worst award of all...horrible band.

Best international band: Dethklok. Not only are they fictional, but their creator is fucking American. They missed the point completely. How about all the awesome metal still coming out of Scandanavia, France, Germany, and the UK? Assholes, morons, idiots.

I can't believe that anyone with half a metal brain would support this mockery of a metal "awards" show.

More or less my sentiments, Jorn Viggo Lofstad is pretty damn amazing I have to say.

3-song setlists suck.

this whole award show was fail in my eyes. i love most of the bands that got awards, but i disagree with them recieving them 100%. plus people that went just to see megadeth, u payed wayyyyy too much for 3 songs.
