![]() I love this album but the last few songs (except the Line) just dont do it for me. But Run is in my top 5 of the year. Maybe even #1

that being said I think it's quite a bit better overall than IYH and ESPG, and unless I'm mistaken both were nominated for Album of the Year. |

![]() Some tracks are definitely stronger than others, and i'd agree that Side A stands out above Side B, but i'm cut that it didn't get an album nom because it's been received so positively in general. Besides it going to #1 in several countries, it's one of their most interesting offerings to date. I'm glad 'Run' is being recognized, but it's a shame the album on the whole got looked over.
Plus Cornell will almost definitely get a posthumous win in their shared category so they're really only up for one. Yeah, I know the Grammys are lame and aren't any real measure of artistry or success these days but the work these guys are putting into their music isn't being recognized.

I mean, if it was up to me, they'd be nominated for all the Grammys and a few Tonys to boot, obviously ![]() Still, a well-received number 1 album with 2 Grammy nominations is not bad going ![]() Last edited by FrenchEnemies : November 30th 2017 at 11:28 AM. |

![]() Wow. I'm loving this album. One of their best for me. The last three (Sunday Rain, The Line, Concrete and Gold) are all really good. Dang. I think every song is pretty damn good. I think those last three have some Led Zep and Pink Floyd feel to them.

![]() Obviously not going to lose sleep over it but I am a little surprised they didn't get nominated for the album. Of those nominated the only one I've heard is QOTSA though, which was great, no idea how the others compare.

![]() TWO "similar" rock nominees is maybe asking a lot in this day and age - I wonder if that factors into it?

![]() Don't really watch Grammy's or care either way, but interesting that Rolling Stones won for 'Best Traditional Blues Album', Blue & Lonesome, which is well deserved and a great album of blues covers (mostly a tribute to Little Walter)!
