I didn't know they were nominated for three! The live broadcast only mentioned Best Rock Album. Yay! :runaround:

So did they just do away with best alternative album? Didn’t see that category in the article I read. And if I remember right back in 2009 and before when they were nominated they were never going against older bands like the rolling stones for instance. They were always put in the best alternative category

Finally, that's awesome! And kind of surreal, considering the amount of shit that has infiltrated the charts in the last ten years.

Is this their first nomination since American Idiot: The Original Broadway Cast Recording? Time surely flies fast..

Literally every nomination they got for 21CB was in the rock category, not alternative - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52nd_Annual_Grammy_Awards

Oh, he will never hide the fact that he is reading from a script for moments like this.

I mean, bring nominated is pretty cool in and of itself, like academy award nominations- still something to brag about even without the win. 

They definitely deserve to get at least one of these though. 

How is it awarded? Its an industry vote/panel, right? Not a public vote?

After nominations have been determined and announced, Academy voting members vote in up to ten categories across up to three Fields in the genre Fields plus the four categories of the General Field to determine the winners.

They certainly deserve it. And they are not new to getting awards either. 

The band previously took home:-

the Best Rock Album award for American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown.

Other Grammy wins for the band were for Best Alternative Performance (Basket Case),

Record Of The Year (Boulevard Of Broken Dreams)

and Best Musical Theatre Album (American Idiot Original Cast Recording).

Impressive.

So proud of them, they really deserve it! Being just nominated (three times!!!) is a huge milestone for a band that's been together for 35 years!
