    Default My Band nominated for a South African Metal Music Award!

    Hi guys, I know theres a good couple metal heads here! Check it out!

    So to our surprise our band has recieved some nominations to a few categories for the 1st South African Metal Music Awards.

    What is strange is the fact that its gone from a large panel of judges of guys in the scene to a collect-a-thon vote popularity contest on Facebook.

    Anyway give us a listen here - http://www.reverbnation.com/amidsttheashes
    and if you feel we deserve a vote then please cast your vote on this poll:
    https://www.facebook.com/southafrica...pp_data=%7B%7D

    I hope that link works otherwise check for the poll here:
    https://www.facebook.com/southafricanmetalmusicawards

    Also maybe check the other bands out too and give them a vote in whichever category. There is phenominal talent here in SA and these awards aims to grow the metal/heavy music scene.

    Thanks guys! \m/

    oh ya we are Amidst the Ashes and I think we'd probably fit the 'best newcomer' category the most.

    I think I may have voted for your guitarist as best guitarist, as I didn't know anyone else and I liked his surname

    Huge vocalist is huge.

    Never heard you guys before, heard of you though.

    Don't have sound at work so I'll have to wait till later to hear - so I'll reserve my vote.
    Surprised Chris from Infanteria isn't on their for best guitarist though.

    Ya, its only fair to vote if you've heard the bands. I appreciate your reserved vote, It gives it way more meaning than simply 'the band with the most friends wins' type deal.
    I think there's probably a lot of great musicians not on the list unfortunately, Im surprised Red Helen or The Drift don't feature anywhere on the list too. Those bands are too incredible.
