Didn't make Consequence or Rolling Stone top 100 of this year.

The album? That's crazy. I hesitate to criticize these lists because I likely haven't heard at least 90 of the 100 and I'm not in any position to fairly judge whether they're better than Dark Matter but, given how good Dark Matter is and having some idea of how the Rolling Stone list has been put together in recent years, it's impossible to fathom that there could have been 100 objectively better albums released in 2024.

I skimmed. But didn't see. Especially Consequence which has been good to Pearl Jam

Still could have fit a Pearl Jam song in there

Finally a list that gets it. Although still too low

Pearl Jam nominated for Billboard Music Award

Top Hard Rock Album

The BBMAs honors the year’s biggest artists, albums, songs, producers and songwriters across multiple genres, as determined by year-end performance metrics on the Billboard charts. The eligibility dates for this year’s awards are aligned with Billboard’s Year-End Charts tracking period, which measures music consumption from the charts dated Oct. 28, 2023 through Oct. 19, 2024.

Bring Me The Horizon, POST HUMAN: NeX GEn

Falling In Reverse, Popular Monster

HARDY, Quit!!

Pearl Jam, Dark Matter

I knew I was supposed to watch something yesterday. Unfortunately they lost to Sleep Token. I'm guessing Sleep Token sold/streamed and got more airplay

Edit: that Sleep Token album came out in May 2023. So it should have been for the 2023 Billboard Music Awards

Dark Matter featured on Friday Night Knicks. They only played Got to Give so far as I've heard. When they did this for Lightning Bolt they played clips of all the songs

I saw that. I was hoping for maybe a Robert Randolph mashup. "Got to Get There/Got to Give."

Nope, especially the rest of the “artist of the year” list. Terrible

With “Now and Then” not nominated, Best Rock Song is more of a wild card. “Gift Horse” could actually be Idles’s breakthrough win. But I see two more likely outcomes. One, “Dark Matter” is a late prize for the under-awarded Pearl Jam.

For as influential as they are, Pearl Jam has won just two Grammys — and one of those was for Best Recording Package. The Academy loves to correct their old mistakes, and this is a ripe opportunity. This year, Pearl Jam earned a trifecta of rock nominations for the first time, which points to a win for their 12th album, Dark Matter.

Best Rock Performance

The Beatles - “Now and Then”

The Black Keys - “Beautiful People (Stay High)”

Green Day - “The American Dream Is Killing Me”

Idles - “Gift Horse”

Pearl Jam - “Dark Matter”

St. Vincent - “Broken Man”

Should Win: St. Vincent - “Broken Man”

Will Win: Green Day - “The American Dream Is Killing Me”
Of course St. Vincent is the Pitchfork pick for Best Rock Performance—especially given the alternatives: stale fist-pumpers from Pearl Jam and Idles, a pop-punk anthem from Green Day, a resuscitated Beatles demo, and the same backwashed blues rock the Black Keys have been releasing forever.
