Grammy.com recently conducted an interview with Grammy nominee’s Dream Theater and MASTODON, as well as MEGADETH frontman Dave Mustaine. Excerpts can be found below:
“For some, the marriage of hard rock/metal and the Grammys might seem incongruous given that heavy bands have enjoyed being a thorn in the side of the mainstream. But many artists relish the peer recognition of being nominated for a Grammy, and the opportunity to strike gold. "We're ecstatic," says James LaBrie, lead vocalist for Dream Theater. "Personally, I've already got the cleats on the bottom of my dress shoes so I can run up on the stage."The influential progressive metal band has built a loyal following since their 1989 debut album, recently charting two Top 10 albums, including 2011's A Dramatic Turn Of Events. LaBrie views the nomination as another career stepping stone.
"This is [about] getting a nod, getting the recognition from the industry itself [and] giving us a little bit more of a platform as far as public awareness," says LaBrie.”
