Metallica recorded Ecstacy of Gold for a Ennio Morricone compilation called "We All Love Ennio Morricone".

Like we care about this.

HAIL SLAYER

lol god hates us all, thats all i know

Damn.. King Diamond's Never Ending Hill was good enough to win.

I am glad that Robert Plant and Alison Krauss won. THat album was one of the best albums from any genre last year.

It's not their fault they were nominated hahaaha SLAAYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEERRRRRR

Of course they care, after all why shouldn't they? The Grammys are still considered to be the highest music honour, and not only for the commercial and mainstream bands...

Besides Tom Araya and his family were there and he personally received the Award. Afterwards he commented: "This is awesome, I guess we're part of the industry now, above ground. None of those tunnel diggings anymore. No, this is our second win actually. It's kind of exciting. We've been fortunate to have been around this long with no radio play. We've gotten support from satellite radio recently, MTV gave us minimal support, but it's all on word of mouth and people liking what we do and passing it on to their friends. We owe a lot of our success to our fans. The industry is great, but the fans are the ones that take the time to look you up to see what you're doing, wait for the record to come out and buy it so..."

Hmm. I remember the last grammy they won, they seemed pretty apathetic. I guess that after 2 grammy's they don't feel that they won just on luck. Hopefully this doesn't lead them to selling out, and I'd be very disapointed if they did, being since 2 other very popular thrash bands tried to become mainstream with variying success.

Out of those they deserved the price I'd say.

Slayer beats them all..woot

I wanted Machine Head to win.

They just redid it last year for a tribute album to Enino Morricone. Now it is Metallica's instruements minus the symphony in the background. It's pretty good, repetitive, but thats only because the song is, blame Enino for that.

Whether we or Slayer itself like it or not, Slayer is totally mainstream.. And i don't see any problem with that, just because you're into metal doesn't mean you don't want to be appreciated by the market.. I think all bands pride is to have a song being appreciated by others.. Other bands should thank all the sellouts like Slayer, Dimmu Borgir, Metallica and other metal bands for standing up for their metal genres.. Hail Grammy for giving these kind of awards, it never is a shame to be recognized as a foundation to what you believe in...

Why was As I Lay Dying even a nominee under 'Metal'?


Ughhhhhhhhhhh....
