11.23.21 | I'm slightly confused because wasn't Genesis like the first single for Deftones in 2020? |

11.23.21 | "Maiden wasn't nominated? Lol."
That's actually a good thing, from where I sit. As for my vote, I'm going to go with Deftones. I'm so obvious. |

11.23.21 | Yeah but Genesis was released as a single in Sept. 2020, wtf. |

11.23.21 | I believe they only consider music released from September of two years before whatever year's ceremony is taking place to August of the previous year before whatever year's ceremony is taking place. Hence why an album like, say, Taylor Swift's Folklore, released in July 2020, was eligible for the Grammy's back in March, but Evermore, released five months later, was not (which is actually being nominated for Album of the Year in January's ceremony, funny thing). |

11.23.21 | This is better than some years. Remember when 4 of the 5 noms were off of that Dio tribute, and Tenacious D ended up winning? |

11.23.21 | Idk why anyone thought this would be anything other than a joke |

11.23.21 | Ahh shit, I probably should have known that lol. Appreciate it! and that is interesting! If it makes sense it makes sense, lol. |

11.24.21 | I was always intrigued by the fact that "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was nominated in the 1993 ceremony for Best Hard Rock Performance with Vocals and Best Rock Song (both of which it lost, the former to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Give It Away," the latter to Eric Clapton's narcoleptic Unplugged rendition of "Layla"), considering that it came out in September 1991. But then I discovered the reasoning behind this, and while it didn't make sense to me for a while (see also: Stone Temple Pilots' "Plush" winning the Best Hard Rock Performance Grammy in 1994, despite the fact that it was released on an album in 1992 -- though that was more defensible to me, given that it didn't chart or have a music video until 1993), I've come to understand it since, because you never know where music that came out four months ago is going to be in terms of critical/commercial success within a year! 😉 |
