The Grammys are shit, but what the heck

The Grammy Nominations for 2010 were announced last night.  I'm sure it's extremely cool to win a Grammy, but I feel like the nominations are chosen out of a hat of bands that sold well throughout the year.  Anyway, here are some of the more relevant categories.

U2, “I’ll Go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight”
Green Day, “21 Guns”

Linkin Park, “What I’ve Done”
Metallica, “The Unforgiven III”
