The 56th annual Grammy Awards announced the nominees for all category's in music the other night and it was pretty cool seeing the nominees for "Best Metal Performance" and you can see who they are right here.

The Grammy's have always been a let down for me in the past. Even though there are categories for rock and metal they never show who wins let alone having some performances live on stage. But still it's pretty cool to see the nominees for "Best Metal Performance" and I'm not sure who I am pulling for this year.

This years nominees are:

Anthrax - "T.N.T." from their album "Anthems"

Black Sabbath - "God Is Dead" from their album "13"

Dream Theater - "The Enemy Inside" from their album "Dream Theater"

Killswitch Engage - "In Due Time" from their album "Disarm The Descent"

Volbeat featuring King Diamond - "Room 24" from their album "Outlaw Gentlemen And Shady Ladies"

I am a fan of all these band so I will not be disappointed in whoever walks away with the Grammy. But if I had to choose I would want to see Killswitch Engage score the Grammy.

The Grammy's will air on January 26th, so we will wait to see who walks away with the Grammy.
