Can you only win a grammy for 'Best New Artist' if its your first record, or is it the first record you get recognized for? (I'm thinking this is a no-duh kind of question, but I wasn't sure what the ground rules are for that category). I was watching the grammy awards last night and started wondering if Eis' could be in that catagory with their new album, or what they might be put under if they were nominated for best album...pop? rock? alternative?

Yeah, No Doubt was nominated (1996 I think) even though they had been a band for nearly ten years and released two previous records before Tragic Kingdom.

grammy language: "best new artist"

translation: "best artist we just realized we cared about, now that they're successful"

Eisley could win the "Best new uh we're not really sure so lets just call them Indie pop I think?" award.

Ha, that makes sense. I'm not saying I'd want Eisley to be subjected to all the flaky superficial-ness of the Grammys, it was just a crazy thought. I think it would be fun to see them on T.V. with Kim, Boyd & Crew. And I'm sure the girls would have wicked cool outfits thanks to their unique fashion sense.

Yay for the Flaming Lips getting two grammys (Best non-classical instrumental for "The Wizard Turns on..."and Best Engineered Album) and OK Go getting Best Short Form Music Video for "Here It Goes Again!"
