Slipknot and Stone Sour vocalist Corey Taylor is nominated in the “Best Vocalist” category. Stone Sour are currently hard at work in Nashville on their third album for Roadrunner, which is being produced by Nick Raskulinecz.
Also, Megadeth garner two nominations. The critically acclaimed latest album ENDGAME is nominated in the “Album of the Year” category.

Mustaine is also confirmed to present the “Most Metal Athlete” Award at the event.
