The Grammys haven’t always given rock the respect it deserves, but alas, 2018 has seen awards fall into some very worthy guitar wielding hands.
Mastodon were honoured with the coveted “Best Metal Performance” category for their song ‘Sultan’s Curse’ off 2017’s Emporer Of Sand, a track that divided fans but showcased the band’s proclivity for crafting hook-drenched, concrete-cracking riffage. The band have taken to Instagram to express their gratitude for the award.
Mastodon are bringing their enthralling live show to Download Festival in Melbourne this March, and will be treating fans around the country to a slew of sideshows across capital cities – you can catch the dates and details for the epic shows here!
The ever-successful Foo Fighters managed to scoop up the award for “Best Rock Song” for the blistering anthem ‘Run’ off 2017’s Concrete & Gold. You check out all the action from their recent Australian stint here.
