i must admit that when i saw this, my heart sank. i guess i've been naive and convinced myself that eventually all this hype would die down and all the mtv masses would move on to the next fad and fall out boy would go back to the tiny band that i've loved for years. but since this will obviously never happen now, i hope they win the grammy. if they're going to get big, i want them to be HUGE. they deserve everything that they're getting, and if they're going to become "the next big thing" then they might as well get all the respect they deserve. so go fall out boy....take over the world and i will be behind you all the way.

I can understand if you or someone isn't a fan of X&Y, but to say Parachutes and A Rush of Blood To The Head are "boring," then you're just naive. Even if it is "boring" in your opinion, it's still better than Mariah Carey's album or U2's album.

My god look at that list of nominees. It's pathetic, how can they honestly nominate that type of music, all of that music? Is there really anyone in the world that thinks all of that is the BEST music out there? That's one thing I've always noticed, the Grammys are the least effective at recognizing the best artists out there, while the Oscars and the Emmys do a fine job. I would almost take that as an insult to be nominated for a Grammy.

Slight accomodation to the Grammys, the alternative list is full of delicious albums in my opinion. Even though Arcade Fire was most definitely not this year.

12/08/05, 10:13 AM
the norma jean album is nominated for best album package. and end of the centruy-the history of the ramones is nominated for best long form of a music video.

honestly, they are not going to win, this country breathes and dreams hip hop and because of this john legend (i know he raps, but you can't shake it to it) who deserve this, is gonna get screwed and ciara is gonna win...because she shakes her butt more than anyone else...

That's amazing that Fall Out Boy is up for a Grammy, but I dislike how artists / bands that have been out for years (didn't Modest Mouse win this last year?) can win an award for Best New Artist - yes I understand the qualifications, I'm just saying it should go to an actual new band who's been around for a year or two. A huge congratulations to Fall Out Boy and Death Cab for Cutie, though, my #1 and #2 listened to artists this year according to Last.fm. :)

FOB shows will never be the same, but then again, they already aren't. I'm super happy for them though, From Under the Cork Tree is definetely still one of my favorite albums of 2005. I still can't beleive they're that big now though. Well.. it happened before eh.

i really agree with you. i wish they would go back to the FOB i knew pre-FUCT, but that's not gonna happen. so i hope they explode. go FOB! they're probably the underdog here, but who knows what could happen.

as for the grammys on a whole, i might actually watch for once. call me lame, but i enjoy gwen stefani. i think shes a really sincere person who just loves music. im glad for all her success and i hope she takes a few grammys home. and death cab. john legend, common, and others are all nominees i approve of. all in all not too bad.

They would easily lose if TTTYG was the album. It's a good record, but to people at the Grammys, it is most likely not. There wasn't much of a variety on TTTYG musically. Atleast FUCT has a little variety.

12/08/05, 11:25 AM
this year's grammy's are pathetic. Are Gwen Stefani and Mariah Carey honestly nominated multiple times?

Death Cab's nomination is one album too late too. Fiona Apple's album was incredible though, hopefully she'll win and the Grammy's will walk away with a shred of dignity.

I worked at a record store though and unfortunately was forced to listen to it as I worked ..its terrible. It isnt even like old school Mariah where she can belt out any note ..its her masquerading as a hip hop artist and it's forced crap.

It's a shame the Grammy's are more concerned with their ratings than actual artistic integrity.

I can understand if you or someone isn't a fan of X&Y, but to say Parachutes and A Rush of Blood To The Head are "boring," then you're just naive. Even if it is "boring" in your opinion, it's still better than Mariah Carey's album or U2's album.

i did like the first two albums...alot actually. don't panic is one of my favorite songs. but seriously, besides 'fix you' ; x and y is bland, and not a progression in any way from the bands previous attempts. for a bad that spent the good part of a year and a half writing and recording i expected a hell of alot more. and personally was not at all impressed with the album at all.

sigur ros on the other hand, who i would go as far to say that they are everything coldplay should be, has created a masterpiece. and deserve alot more credit then they are getting.

my 2 cents.

12/08/05, 01:47 PM
Well, obviously you are not really a band until you make an appearance on TRL. And if Fall Out Boy deserves Best New Artist nomination with "From Under Cork Tree," then why the hell hasn't Jimmy Eat World been nominated before? (or have they, and I'm just making a complete ass of myself?) Even Taking Back Sunday's "Tell All Your Friends" was worthy of one. Or Brand New's "Deja." Or how about Blink 182? Even MCR's "Three Cheers for Sweet Romance" wasn't any worse than "From Under Cork Tree." It seems like the Grammy's are just trying to reach out to wider fanbases to get better ratings. And what better fanbase to grab than the MTV crowd?

I'm not saying that Fall Out Boy DOESN'T necessarily deserve some sort of recognition, but if they do, then a shitload of other musicians sure as hell deserve some, too. And for better material.

ps- By the way, why does FOB get their own little congratulatory news post, but Death Cab for Cutie, The Acarde Fire, Weezer, The Killers, The White Stripes, etc. doesn't? Or even Green Day? They may be huge, but I mean, they are "punk," don't you think?

I'm not usually a dick on here, but dude, get over yourself. I don't think they need your approval to be huge and famous. Also, "If they're going to become 'the next big thing?" Someone's a little behind the times, huh? They are on/near the top of the lists of numerous online retailers, including iTunes, and have been on TRL. And last time I checked, they didn't need your approval to get famous. Oh, and one more thing...they aren't very good either (that was unnecessary, but felt like saying it regardless.)

Death Cab's nomination is one album too late too. Fiona Apple's album was incredible though, hopefully she'll win and the Grammy's will walk away with a shred of dignity.

I agree with you on both counts. Extraordinary Machine is quite...well....extraordinary.

I know -- that "w" and "h" are a lot of work to type. Phew, I'm exhausted just thinking about it.

Well said. I think people who use too much abbreviations online may begin to actually believe that "why" is spelt "y," "you" is "u," etc. Today's youth is corrupt. Down with internet lingo!

I mean fuck, "beverly hills" is nominated for an award, does that mean if I shit out a simple, stupid, generic pop rock song that i can get nominated for a grammy.....oh wait it does, because the whole entire music industry is butt fucking corporate labels as we speak and the state of mainstream music is at an all time low, ok FOB is awe someand all but deserving of musics greatest honor, i think not, i mean they can barley even play a whole song live without fucking it up by jumping or whatever "crazy shit" they do Looks like the Grammys have turned into TRL or something, its scary to think where the state of mainstream music is going to go

Beverly Hills is a good song.

yea i bet Keane wins this one, and they are my favorite......i extremely dislike FOB.

but i really dont want Keane to win.....i hope FOB wins because this award is a fucking deathwish.

No artist that wins this award is around the next year.....always extremely uncommon, most of them fade out. So yea i hope FOB wins for that reason....sorry just my opinion.

Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing. This award is pretty much death in a majority of cases.

KANYE WEST will beat Fall Out Boy for best new artist. even though he's not nominated. That's the reality of it all.

hahaha. interesting.
considering that i don't know a single one of the other 'artists' up.... sure, go fall out boy.
probably not going to win it though.


...and have FBR make some game that made it vote 10 times for fallout boy for every person who played... they were so nice to my chemical romance because they screwed them over with that little trick.

.........you know mtv made that game right?

I worked at a record store though and unfortunately was forced to listen to it as I worked ..its terrible. It isnt even like old school Mariah where she can belt out any note ..its her masquerading as a hip hop artist and it's forced crap.

It's a shame the Grammy's are more concerned with their ratings than actual artistic integrity.

exactly. i don't how people can stand the unadulterated fakeness of it..... oh well, if Beverly Hills is up for an award, then sure, Mariah too.

ps- By the way, why does FOB get their own little congratulatory news post, but Death Cab for Cutie, The Acarde Fire, Weezer, The Killers, The White Stripes, etc. doesn't? Or even Green Day? They may be huge, but I mean, they are "punk," don't you think?


dude, do you even visit this website?

.....ever?

yes i do. the fact that ap.net does this shit all the time (like for the vma's for example) doesn't make my question any less relevant.

yeah, but they're new to the mainstream, which is all the grammy's honor.

i mean, death cab are getting nominated for an average album, probably only because now they're on a major and debuted at number four. and arcade fire should have been nominated last year, not this year, since their album came out before the october 1st deadline - but they weren't playing with bowie on cbs then! pff. i don't know why it pisses me off, but it does.
