An amusing reaction to their winnings at the grammys

Odd. I wonder why I got downvoted. I don't make money if people go to that website. My grammar (afaik) was correct. It seemed to relate to the comment above. I will just remain at a loss and move on.
there is absolutely no reason for these comments to be downvoted as much as they are

buncha arcade fire defending hipsters here im guessing

and dont give me any of that bullshit about comments with no substance because these comments have more substance than many others ive seen that get upvoted

Okay seriously though I've never heard of arcade fire... they won a grammy? I'm confused. And thanks for that site because now I know I'm not alone.

I just pulled up their suburbs song on youtube and now I'm even more at a loss. It's a mad world out there, man.

I'm a big metalhead though. That's my excuse. It'd be cool if metal could win album of the year! ...for technical prowess. It's pretty hard to beat metal in that respect - but it does depend on the subgenre of metal. Jazz is the only other genre that comes close.
