    Hayley Williams not getting any nods is pretty surprising. Thought she deserved something in the Pop Vocal Performance/Album categories.

    Lots of female representation in the rock category, very cool.

    Poppy nom for metal is interesting. Same genre as Code Orange? Alright...

    Oh yeah, oh yeah, everything is terrible.

    Fine Line not getting more love is kinda shocking, but down with all the nods Phoebe Bridgers got, and all the women in the rock category too!

    Shocked The Weeknd got completely snubbed...

    Taylor is going to sweep the majors on a record that most of the general public forgot even came out.

    I’m assuming Caspian’s nomination is for the vinyl release. I got the CD and that package is boring as hell!

    If Taylor and Phoebe don't win every category they're nominated for I'm going to be mad for a day.

    Can’t tell if this is sarcasm or not. If it is, I agree, they always get included in this stuff and that record was meh.

    So these genre titles have long baffled me. But how do Phoebe, Fiona Apple, Brittany Howard...get nominated for rock song/performance but the album category is alternative??

    Sorry, should’ve provided context. Her music is so omnipresent on Top 40 and AC radio formats that her putting this record out and not servicing any singles to those formats caused this era to go by quietly to the GP.

    She threw everyone a curveball, and while I’m not a fan of hers, she deserves the awards for taking a bold choice and making that record.
