I’m really suprised to not see Maneskin get a nom with Beggin’. Also I thought the Foo Fighters would have enough support for an AOTY nom.

The Weezer nomination for “All My Favorite Songs” is a welcome surprise. It’s actually the biggest charting song in its category. I feel McCartney will get the rubber stamp of approval, but rooting for Weezer here. I’d normally predict Foo Fighters but “Waiting on a War” is kind of a dud compared to their much better works that won

Ok here it is, this just my opinion you don’t have to agree with it:

Good points – I think it is extremely moving to see Wolfgang Van Halen nominated, one person very early on in this forum, asked me about the chances of his nomination, Its an inspiring nomination.

Weezer is probably my favourite band, so for me it is a lovely surprise to see them nominated, and for a quite a charming song, a band that we all underestimated has done it again.

I also have no problem with the nominations for Kings Of Leon, Deftones who are a welcome surprise and AC/DC despite the fact that I have now only predicted one Rock Album in the last 3 years AGAIN.

The Alternative category is actually fine by me, I like Japanese Breakfast, nice to see Halsey, this category is fine as usual.

Metal Performance, I like this lineup well enough, and not because I did well predicting it, it is a nice enough lineup, good to see Dream Theater who I put in my predictions in the last hour before I posted the predictions.

Ok thats my good points, next comes the bad.

MY NOMINATION PREDICTION RESULTS
Best Alternative Album - 2 out of 5 in 2019, 4 out of 5 in 2020, 3 out of 5 in 2021.
Best Rock Performance - 2 out of 5 in 2019, 3 out of 6 in 2020, 0 out of 5 in 2021.
Best Rock Song - 3 out of 5 in 2019, 2 out of 5 in 2020, 0 out of 5 in 2021.
Best Rock Album - 1 out of 5 in 2019, 2020 and 2021.
Best Metal Performance - 0 out of 5 in 2019, 2 out of 5 in 2020, 3 out of 5 in 2021.

Yeah, it’s the album’s poor performance that did it in. The songs just didn’t generate the interest that FF used to. It’s an ok album, but (and I say this as a 25 year fan) their radio relevance is gone

Ok here it is, this just my opinion you don’t have to agree with it:

Bad Points: Can anybody explain to me why Chris Cornell needs another set of posthumous nominations? I don’t understand it, its a waste of two nominations, Grammy already rewarded him with his win in 2019 after he lost to Leonard Cohen the previous year, that should have been the end of it, and I love Cornells music in general but not this.

Black Pumas two live nominations feels really uninspired as well, you have so many Rock Albums to choose from, yet this gets in over Wolf Alice, Maneskin and The Killers, I don’t understand. Paul McCartney really didn’t need this nomination, certainly not over the likes of Wolf Alice and Maneskin.

The snubs….. look there was always gonna be snubs, no Wolf Alice is a horrible sting, Maneskin is even more bizarre, not even a New Artist nomination, despite the fact that 3 members of the band announced some nominees.

MY NOMINATION PREDICTION RESULTS
Best Alternative Album - 2 out of 5 in 2019, 4 out of 5 in 2020, 3 out of 5 in 2021.
Best Rock Performance - 2 out of 5 in 2019, 3 out of 6 in 2020, 0 out of 5 in 2021.
Best Rock Song - 3 out of 5 in 2019, 2 out of 5 in 2020, 0 out of 5 in 2021.
Best Rock Album - 1 out of 5 in 2019, 2020 and 2021.
Best Metal Performance - 0 out of 5 in 2019, 2 out of 5 in 2020, 3 out of 5 in 2021.
