Stick To Your Guns’ latest album, “Diamond” has been nominated for an Independent Music Award for best Hardcore/Metal album of the year.
Winners will be determined by fan votes and a panel of judges including Tom Waits, Ziggy Marley, Pete Wentz, “Weird Al” Yankovic, Joel Madden, Kevin Lyman and more.
“Never in a million years did we think that we’d be up for something like this,” said frontman Jesse Barnett. “Stick To Your Guns started in a garage. We were a bunch of kids who had no idea what we were doing or even how to play our instruments. Our goal was never to become big and famous or to win awards. This band has taken us places that we never could have imagined. We are overwhelmingly grateful to everyone for their steadfast loyalty”
Last year’s winner in the Hardcore/Metal category was Asking Alexandria. Fans can vote at:
