I never thought I'd be rooting for twenty one pilots to win a Grammy but here we are.

(but mostly just don't let Led Zeppelin win)

Looks like a mostly good list and largely a reminder of a lot of stuff I’ve forgotten to hear. I shall have to check those metal bands especially.

the Alt/Rock Nominations in the Grammy are notorious for being terrible and out of touch with reality

Totally agree with this.
They've almost always been a joke

Unpopular opinion online, but I'm glad to see Greta Van Fleet win!

Insane that they're only 19-22, it's surprising how many stans they have online though for a 'classic rock' band tongue.gif
