THE KERRANG! AWARDS 2006

Logo

Last night, (Thursday 24 August), London's East End was taken over by the dark side, with The Kerrang! Awards 2006 at The Brewery EC1. The good, the great - and the downright legendary - names in rock and metal both new and old gathered at the 550 capacity venue to hear the hugely anticipated winners of the 13 categories, and to help celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Kerrang! Magazine. With the recent ABC figures showing that Kerrang! Magazine is now the world's biggest selling weekly music magazine (with 80,186 readers per week) there was certainly much cause for celebration!

From 6pm on the night of the Awards, guests were treated to a stunning display of weird and wonderful sights that formed the theme of this year's Awards - "Twisted Carnival". Brought to the proceedings by infamous burlesque and cabaret company Torture Garden Productions, a carnival sideshow consisted of acts such as 'Vivid Angel Wolf Girl, 'Johnny Flaming Fun', 'Lenny Fire Dwarf' and 'Psycho Cyborgs', in addition to the beautiful Ring Mistresses Tasha and Valeria. Host of the Awards, Kerrang! Radio's Stuart Cable, joined in the bizarre circus by taking his role as Ring Master very, very seriously...

"Coherent thought is always a struggle in the aftermath of the greatest rock 'n' roll party of the year, but this year's Kerrang! Awards was a truly special night,” says Kerrang! Editor Paul Brannigan. “In Kerrang!'s 25th year, our world has never been stronger and the bands who've picked up awards tonight will be at the forefront of the international rock scene for the next 25 years. Here's to repeating this carnage in 12 months time..."

Why is everyband that won the Kerrang Awards shit? seriously, what has happened to good bands?
This whole new emo thing is just as bad as fucking filthy chavs.

where the fuck is AFI??! They deserved an award!! MCR fuckin suck!!

bfmv are completely talentless!!! they arent fuckin incredible!! they shudnt have even been nominated! where the fuck are bands like System of A Down!!!!???

*Yawn* Did you vote for them?

fair play on the Classic Songwriter Award. Placebo are ace. and Muse deserved to win more than one award. I saw them last night in Edinurgh. Easily the best gig I've been to this year

I agree with mediumslice........lets be honest emo, metal, goth or punk who cares its a good excuse to get pissed !!!

HOW THE SHITTING FUCK DID MCR WIN BEST BAND ON PLANET?! THAT'S FUCKED UP.

MCR RULE 4 LIFE IM SO GLAD THEY GOT BEST BAND ON THE PLANET FALL OUT BOY DESERVE THE BEST VIDEO BUT WERE THE FUCK WAS PETE HE IS LIKE SOOOOO FIT IM MISSED HIM LOVE YOU KERRANG HAPPY BIRTHDAY XXX

What has happened? This whole Panic! crap. Why! Why did fall out boy win a award. What has happened, Just cos pete wentz is fit everyone loves his band. half the emo girls that go online to post "Ohhh OMGZ xxxx -_- love ya pete xxxx shag meee!!" probaly dont even hardly listen to there music. or if they do is the new pop stuff, not the old better FOB (Not that there were that good then)

|God shake, why didnt rise against/ foo fighters/ red hot chilis/ tool/ nine inch nails/ HIM/ Pearl Jam/ Korn/ Monster magnet win any awards. True bands that have worked there butts off for ages and now seem to be lost in this "new wave" of teen girls posting "x OHH PETE xxx" on the web.


man lets get back to rock n roll. Kerrang TV is pretty poor really, i know its not their fault that they cant play proper metal (cos the little girls that make up the ratings would switch off) but come on, i swear limp bizcuit is on like 5 times a day, Im bored! Show me some paramore or some AV7 or some Slayer

i cant belive muse anly won 1 award...wats the world coming 2 they deserved more than that...they shud of won best britis band 2, because cmon lostprophets, they arent the best and ooooooo my god wat did they look like..

i'm glad lostprophets won best british band.

they deserve that and i think that they do really good music

Con is right fuckin "emo" girls rule kerrang tv now and all the decent music has gone!!

I luv MCR and am glad they won Best Band but cum on i agree with Con they should start playing more metal

What an awful, awful conclusion. Where was the metal? There was just emo dross, piled on top. MCR could never, under any circumstance, be the best band anywhere, including within my anus. This is pathetic.

look i know you are saying that MCR are not the best band on the planet but the fact is people around the uk disagree with you and most think they are overwise they wouldnt have won ok got it gd!!!

the automatic rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mcr deserved to win if you think otherwise you should of voted more

to every one who talks shit about bullet......


how should i start.....SHut the fuck up and stop licking your moms vagina and relize how goood bullet for my valentine is.. lets see you start a band, have world wide fame, and tour with iron maiden, guns and roses, and other big names

then i wanna see you write multiple songs that hit multiple charts in multiple contenents

if someone talksabout pete wentz one more time im gonna blow my head off. his egos bloody ballooning up with egoism, the more you talk about him, regardless it be bad or good.

icant believe trivium didnt win award...that sucks...i dont understand how fall out boy one awrd at all...then again...i do....FUCKING TEENIE BOPPER TOASTERS!!!!!

kerrang u should delete all fall out boy from your playlist....or blur out petes face his face kills it. the musics okay. but not brilliant!
Bullet deserved their awards they kick ass. cut mcr and lostprophets some slack! They are so much better than other bands out there (*ahem*falloutboy*ahem*) how the hell did fall out boy get nominated anyway?

SORRY FOR THE ESSAY!!!! I DO RAMBLE ON.....LOL

I can't belive HIM didnt get 1 award and Muse only got 1! coz of all this fuckin shit thats takin over!!! Gob smacked MCR got Best band what alode of bollocks! Pleased tho that Prodigy and Placebo got awards, i surpose there is some sense out there somewere!
I really dnt understand how some of these bands got nominated. This is the shittest Kerrang awards so far, make sure you get real talent for next year!!

All I cared about was Placebo - they won - I'm happy.

As for Panic at the disco and Fall Out Boy - they aren't bad - so deal with it - someone loves them.

As for MCR... I'm at a loss

IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY I SAW BRING ME THE HORIZON IN THE SMALLEST VENUE IN CORNWALL!!! and now their winning K! awards! if thats not inspirational i dont knwo what is!
ALSO...excuse me??? FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND SHOULD HAVE WON BEST BRITTISH BAND!!! HELLO! Who let the people who CANT HEAR MUSIC vote!?
panic! at the disco = sad catchy pop music :( sorry to say it but its true!
BUT ITS OKAY CAUSE I STILL LOVE K!
XXX

I agree that Muse deserved more that 1 award. but Im glad they won the best gig award. I went to Meadowbank Stadium in Edinburgh and honestly- IT WAS THE BEST GIG IVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!! My Chemical Romance played before the muse and even if I like them their gig was shif compared to the Muse!! Really.

I meant shit not shif in my last sentence ;P

Just watched on TV, the awards really sucked, a few good bands about, but none talked about.

Still kerrang is now no more than a glorified pop mag for kids.

Wanna see some real rock, read terrorisor.

fuck MCR......they can go jump off a fuckin building....they didnt deserve that award.....A7X IS THE BEST BAND IN THE FUCKIN GALAXY ASSHOLES!

so glad lostprophets got the awards they did, basicly because they really deserve them. some people say their older stuff might be better but to be honest they are just a great band that have noticeably progressed... so yeah really good!

trivium r gay and so is mat heafy

how did Avenged Sevenfold not win any thing they are so much better than the likes of muse and placebo!!!!!!!! and i cant wait to see them live in southampton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Samaritans were the official charity of the year in 2006. You can buy the guitar we got signed on eBay..and a lot more besides:

MCR best band on the planet ... that is the biggest load of bollocks i have ever seen!!!, some of the greatest bands ever have new albums this year ! Slayer ! Tool ! Iron maiden !! Mastodon !!even tenacious d !!!! they diddnt get anything!! emo has killed rock n roll READ METAL HAMMER !!!!!!

Hey Omg Leave MCR Alone They Deserved Dat Award And Personally All These Ppl Who Am Hating On Them Shud Keep Dere Opinions To Demselves MCR Aint Emo Dey Neva Claimed To Be Emo An I Bet All U MCR Haters Wudnt Know Gd Music If It Came Up N Lamped U...Freaks...

Okay like im one of those people that think Pete is Hot but i just developed that like a 3 weeks ago but like i didn't even know his name until like freakin October and i have been listening th FOB the whole intire way and in every friken band theres always that centre of attention so don't blame everything like GOD and by the way its kind of Sad that you guys have so much time on your hand to bash people like MCR is a rlly good band but you guys like frig you probably barely listen to these bands and are like omg i can be cool to if i listen to this band wow im so awsome!!!

Interesting stuff. Your tastes are far from those of the majority if I believe the results of rankopedia.

What the fuck is your problems MCR is awesome . I love a7x
but stop putting other bands down. Who all said stupid shit
about this should go jump off a fucking building & die!
Your just fucking little freaks who think you know it all!
MCR deserved the fucking award they have worked there
fucking asses off! I dont think any of you little freaks even have
listened to any of there music! There fucking songs have a lot
to do with real shit that matters! You fuckers probly get your
asses pampered & you dont have a fucking clue about life!
As long as your happy it doesnt matter how other people fill!
Selfish little Basterds!!!!! So go Fuck yourselfs!!!!!!!!
