Famous Metal Musicians React to Vinnie Paul Grammy Snub

0

The metal world is still fuming over Vinnie Paul’s lack of inclusion in the “In Memoriam” segment that ran on the Grammy Awards this past Sunday night, a video reel honoring several of the most notable members of the music community we lost over the past year. While his name was included on a short list of several hundred the Academy put together prior to the ceremony, Paul — who was nominated for four Grammys during his career — didn’t make the cut to be included in the broadcast. All That Remains guitarist Oli Herbert, We Came as Romans singer Kyle Pavone and Cave In bassist Caleb Scofield are other prominent members of the metal community who passed in 2018 that were also included on the initial shortlist but didn’t make it into the TV segment.

Several members of high-profile metal bands have shared their outrage at Paul’s snub on social media over the past few days. Here are a few of those posts.
