Don’t really like calling anyone a lock but Arctic Monkeys is close to it, no? Also rooting for Paramore to finally get an Album nom.

The Car is definitely getting nominated and, could even say it’s a contender for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical.

I wouldn’t call Body Paint or any other track off the album a lock, but they’ll be on tour during summer + voting and should release a b-side by that time. Alex himself said in an interview that there’s a “very important song” that didn’t make the final cut.

2017 nominees Blink-182 are returning with a reunion album with Tom DeLonge. The first single, Edging, went #1 at Rock Radio for 16 weeks. That’s too big of a hit to ignore in a field that’s been struggling on the charts

What do you guys think about the new Paramore record? Personally, it wasn’t love as first sight, but the title-track is one of the best rock songs I’ve heard in a while.

Also, to what field do you think they are submitting it?

There’s nothing “Best Pop Solo Performance” about A&W. I wish there was a songwriting category in Alternative Music or Pop so there was no way this song could be snubbed.
