Title: Western Front Awards '10/'11 - NOMINATIONS
Post by: TnT on April 21, 2011, 07:47:24 AM
Once again it is time for the voting for the Western Front Awards (WA) for 2010.
This stage is just the nomination period, and then from that will be created a voting form to select from the top nominees.

Just nominate in each category that you have a choice for, in the format:
1.
2.
3.

With 1 being your favourite and your follow up nominations (But you can just choose one or two if that's all you can think of).
The nominations are for the best of Western Australian metal.

The categories for 2010:

- Best Local Band

- Best Local Release

- Best Local Guitarist

- Best Local Drummer

- Best Local Bassist

- Best Local Vocalist

- Best Local Keyboardist


The nominations will be for a nominal period, after which stage the voting will be held.

Ok, I won't break the unsaid rules, no self nominations! :D
this is from the limited bands I have seen so far this year:

- Best Local Band
1. Khariot (Thoroughly entertained me when I saw them!)
2. Bend The Sky (supremely tight! Best atmospheric, math/djent instrumental metal in Perth!)
3. Cold Fate (Blew me away, quality local thrash!)

- Best Local Release
1. Khariot - 'Disymposium' ('cause I love progressive death!)
2. Mhorgl - 'Antinomian' (again 'cause it's tight, and pretty groovy for black metal! ;) )
3. Point Breakdown - live to get rad! (entertainment factor and production value are both high!)

- Best Local Guitarist
1. Cam Nicholas from Cold Fate (Phenomenal lead guitarist!)
2. Liam from Devour the Martyr (good tight player)
3. tie for Damo & Andy from Blunt Force (for owning some of the coolest guitars!)

- Best Local Drummer
1. Louis from Mhorgl (like a machine!)
2. Nazzy D from Blunt Force trauma (great facial expressions!)
3a. Seth Keegan - From Isolation (this is not a self plug, I really feel Seth has pulled his weight and worked really hard to get where he has this year!)
3b. Blake from Bend the Sky (keeps the band nice and tight with the all those samples live, and doesn't even play to a click!)*in-case my nomination for Seth doesn't count.

- Best Local Bassist
1. Bass player from Khariot (stood out front of stage and just pummeled away when I saw them!)
2. Stumpy from Blunt Force Trauma (wouldn't want to argue with this guy!  ;) )
3. Moose - From Isolation ( again he has done a lot of work this year to get to where he has!)

- Best Local Vocalist
1. Matt Ellis - Devour the Martyr ( He sounds awesome on their new EP!)
2. Stu from Blunt Force Trauma ( Deserves a nom for all his hard work!)
3. Matt - From Isolation ( He still blows my mind every time he lets roar from his throat!)

- Best Local Keyboardist
1. Jezza from Neverborn (he's the only one I know!)

Man that took F-O-R-E-V-E-R!!  ;D

Morden - The Best of Morden (3 Disc Set)

Hahaha what? I never noticed us releasing a 3 disc compilation? I don't even recall writing enough to completely fill one CD. I'll gladly accept this award though.

Props to the nomination of Cam from Cold Fate/Silent Knight though, he is indeed a phenomenal lead guitarist!

That time again?  Fuck it's come quick.  Was about to nominate stuff from this year, then I remembered its for the year gone, so I'll try my best to remember

Best Local Band
1.  Sins of the Father (These guys have come along way since they debuted a few years ago.  Definitely a force to be reckoned with this year plus with that amazing album they brought out earlier this year)
2.  Enforce  (13 years on top and still going strong)
3.  Mhorgl  (This band has gigged the past year more then anyone and have gotten a hell of a lot more interesting to watch.  Massive thumbs up for effort)

Best Local Release (I assumed these could only be releases from 2010, so therefore no Sins, Khariot or Enforce which would be my choices from 2011)
1.  Wardaemonic - Echoes of Ageless Flames
2.  Mhorgl - Antinomian
3.  Shrapnel - Hellbound

Best Local Guitarist
1.  Dave Wratten (Gallows) - very under rated guitar player
2.  Geoff Eaton (Nexus)
3.  Rob Thorpe (Mhorgl, Shrapnel)

Best Local Drummer
1.  Louis Rando's Cane Furniture (Mhorgl, Nervecell) - the only guy locally who has truly made it, and well deserved to
2.  Dan Grainger (Nexus, Wardaeomonic, DFC) - very hard working individual
3.  Luke (Sins) - yes, he's not the most technical of players, but he sure is entertaining to watch and he makes every hit count!

Best Local Bassist
1.  Brad Trevaskis (Wardeamonic, DFC, Grotesque) - Easily the best bassist since Simon was forced to drop the strings
2.  Simon Muller (Grotesque) - RIP my friend........'s shoulder
3.  Darren Joy (Khariot) - A fucking Joy to watch.  See what I did there

Best Local Vox (would vote me, but I haven't done fuck all this past year)
1.  Jack Cressall (Sins) - impressive vocals, good stage presence, aggression. Yep all there.  Plus he's done a bit more locally then his bro this past year.
2.  Louis Rando's Solicitors (Shrapnel) - hate to say it, but a drummer is overshadowing a lot of local vocalists here.  Especially in the revving up the crowd department 
3.  Matty FUCKING Goodone (Nails) - the range on this guy is fucking brutal.  Best death metal vocalist at the moment

Best Local Keys (who gives a fuck!  Same 3 people anyway every year)
1.  Jesse (CTT)
2.  Jizz (Neverborn)
3.  Danny (Voyager)

1 Chaos Divine - The Human [centipede]Connection
2 Empires Laid Waste - The Age Of Decay
3 Desolate - Dimension Tear EP

- Best Local Guitarist
1 Drew Shepherd. Yes im plugging my own guitarist! but fuck me, his work on our upcoming EP has truly blown my mind.
2 Grant Burns - Vespers Descent , a monstrosity of an effort from grant on their upcoming album.

3 Ben Mazzarol - Vespers Descent / Chaos Divine - tight as fuck, cool use of polyrythms to make straighter-sections sound different

- Best Local Bassist
1 Rob Hare. PRESCIENT. Yet again, my own bassist. i dont know many others haha. and this guy manages to follow (and write) some seriously fucked up riffs (21/16 at 190Bpm anyone?)
2 Martin Murphy - Empires Laid Waste. learnt the whole Empires set and joined them on stage with ease
3 Blake Molloy - Desolate . He rocks out, without a pick.

- Best Local Vocalist
1 David Anderton - Chaos Divine. screams, sings, exceptional at both
2 Matthew Goyder - Desolate. Austrian Death Machine's next frontman or what?? Anyone who turns a microphone into a machine gun on stage is a legend in my books
3 Big Mac - Neverborn . he successfully holds his own amidst the fury of neverborn!

- Best Local Sound Engineer
1 Simon Mitchell!!!!!!!!!!! Hes done an insanely excellent job on our EP, im happier with his efforts than the actual songs themselves [not entirely true]
