IMHO
ok, I've always had a problem with the Grammy award for 'Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental'.
I mean come on, Jethro Tull won the first one in 1990, how could you take it seriously after that?
Sometimes I get the impression that the Grammy just dump all of the stuff in this category that they don't know what to do with, but they think is slightly important. Some past 'hard rock' winners have been Living Color, Smashing Pumpkins, Linkin Park, the ever melodramatic Evanescence, Mettalica, and Soundgarden. Besides all having guitars, drums and lead singers, I don't think these bands have a whole lot in common stylistically
Maybe I just don't know what 'hard rock' is....
Is Wolfmother hard rock? I guess so. (ok, I'm not going to be horrible, congrats out to them)
