And Sonic Syndicate best newcomers? We're doomed.

Lowelas OF FIRE Account deleted	Permalink 29.01.2008 - 01:10 Lowelas OF FIRE Account deleted @Insineratehymn: Because in the U.S. , Metal is not so commercial, whereas in Scandinavia it is. In America, the music that gets most attention is Country, Rap, R&B, Pop, Emo, Rock. Here in The Bahamas it's the same, except Country is only appreciated in Abaco (a predominately Caucasian family island) and Spanish Wells (a predominately caucasian settlement in Eleuthera) and In The Bahamas there is an additional appreciation for Reggae, Dancehall, Soca and Rake N' Scrape (Bahamian Calypso). Oh and I find that some of the 'Upper Class' people like some techno. It depends on what the young people like in the country. Loading...

It is for year 2007, and not 2008. It's just like all other award shows and things like that. If we say the Oscars for exampel.
