Sum 41 has entries for 6 Grammys...

Phili · Post by **Phili** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 4:55 pm

Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year. Along with like 700 other songs and albums. So they probably won't score a nomination. But it's pretty freakin' cool.

Wish it was a different song from that album.
That song along with uh (song not album) pretty much stereotypes everything people hate about sum 41.

Haha, I'm sure they've been entered for Grammy nominations before. They'll probably get cut pretty fast.

yea they ALWAYS are. and that really sucks. :x the emo and pop shit will win.

Hentaiman · Post by **Hentaiman** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 5:03 pm

yeah! god, i hope they'll score a nomination!

I mean, the grammys suck balls! the only shit winning there are some stupid indie acts that exist like one year and get grammys cuz they're like MTV friendly bands....
or crappy nu-metal bands who contribute nothing to the modern music, like Slipknot! the only thing bands like those contribute are stupid boring riffs and repetitive songs like any other nu-metal band in the genre.

The only normal band that won a grammy was Metallica, while bands like Megadeth, Guns N' Roses, etc. were forgotten

Anyway, i hope sums will win!

BTW, in record of the year, you mean UNDERCLASS HERO, right? it says WALKING DISASTER.... Walking disaster is the single, not the album =/

Jonny · Post by **Jonny** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 5:04 pm

Yeah.
Music awards seem to celebrate shit music.
And then people try and recreate the shitty music that wins, so that they can win.

Phili · Post by **Phili** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 5:07 pm

A "record" is a song, not an album.

I haven't been able to view the album of the year one yet.

Post by **Druska** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 5:21 pm

good news I hope that at least they could get a nomination

i doubt theyll be nominated, but it'd be awesome

Post by **Ken** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:03 pm

Damn. People actually care about Sum 41?

Phili · Post by **Phili** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:14 pm

I found some more stuff. They have entries for 3 rock-related Grammys too.

Post by **Ken** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:19 pm

Everything's Walking Disaster.

Phili · Post by **Phili** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:21 pm

Except the 2 album entries, yes. No surprise there. Not only is Walking Disaster more successful, but it's a better song.

Post by **Dylan** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:25 pm

have they ever been nominated before?

Phili · Post by **Phili** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:27 pm

I don't think so. We'll see what happens with these entries.

They don't really have a chance with these ones, but we'll probably see a couple nominations with the Junos. Nickelback and Billy Talent both released their albums last year, so Sum 41 has a pretty good chance on the Canadian scene... Hmmm... Arcade Fire and Hedley, though... Shit.

Post by **Dylan** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:46 pm

nickelback's was in 2005. they are working on a new one. hopefully it will be out after the Junos. im theroizing that Billy Talent's new CD wil be out on or after summer 2008.

Phili · Post by **Phili** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 6:53 pm

It better be out after the Junos. Or after the period of eligibility.
