Kerrang best international newcomer - why Kill Hannah?

Question

Kill Hannah have been nominated for a best international newcomer award by Kerrang...
they're not newcomers, theyve been around years and had huge success...ive seen them live with hundreds of fans, and theyre allowed to be nominated for best international newcomer??

someone who reads Kerrang/understands their awards process PLEASE explain>? is it cos theyre on Roadrunner Records now (and theyre an official awards partner?)

Answer 1

Kerrang is out of their minds. According to them MCR is the best band ever...

Answer 2

the base it off of how many cd's they have recorded and stuff like that. But i agree with the person before me, they are out of their minds. But anyways, there was a very similar thing to this, when Avenged Sevenfold won best new band when they made Bat Country, and yet they had a CD prior to that, and they had been touring and doing all sorts of shows prior to that.

Answer 3

I've found it a bit strange... Kill Hannah is around since 1996... And Madina Lake was nominated the best international band and they've got only one album. :O



I think it's becaouse they've haven't released anything in the UK before, their albums just were released in the US

Answer 4

I don't agree with kerrang on this. Kill Hannah's okay... but best new intl? no.
