AC/DC's "Black Ice", GUNS N' ROSES' "Chinese Democracy" and METALLICA's "Death Magnetic" have been nominated in the "International Album Of The Year" category at this year's Juno Awards, it was announced today (February 3) at a media conference at Toronto's Fairmont Royal York Hotel. Also nominated in the "Recording Engineer Of The Year" category was Mike Fraser for his work on AC/DC's "Rock N' Roll Train" single. The awards show, hosted by comedian Russell Peters, will air on Sunday, March 29 on CTV from General Motors Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

For a complete list of nominees, go to this location.

The Juno Awards are presented annually to Canadian musical artists and bands to acknowledge their artistic and technical achievements in all aspects of music. New members of the Canadian Music Hall of Fame are also inducted as part of the awards ceremonies.

Winners are currently chosen by members of the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences or, depending on the award, a panel of experts. In almost all of the main general categories, such as "Album of the Year" or "Artist of the Year", nominees are determined by sales during the qualifying period; in genre-specific categories, they are determined by panel.

Congratulations to the band for getting nominated.

Some stiff competition there.  I'm not too crazy about the new ACDC, but I respect the band and how well the album has sold.  I love the other 2 albums though.  I can't believe an Awards show can have such good taste.  There's no Britney Spears nomination or someone of that ilk?

Wouldn't hurt to e-mail the Juno Awards committee to proclaim our support for Chinese Democracy for the International Album of the Year Award!  ok

I did it, and received a "Thank you for the suggestion!" response. Please, everyone else do too!

then why should there be several nominees for each award.

They picked the nominees based on sales, they didn't say the winner would be based on sales.  That'd be a pretty lame way to decide.  ACDC would win hands down, why have other nominees?  So obviously that won't be the basis to choose the winner.

I received messages from people on MySpace who are e-mailing them and are getting various "Thank you, we'll take that into consideration" responses. Keep it up guys.

It can't hurt... Grin

I wish awards weren't tainted by with skepticism, that is the sad truth. The Grammys didn't award the Beach Boys any awards, and yet it is considered the best album of all time.

This year's favoured album to win is "Carter III" by Lil' Wayne... the highest selling album of the year. Sold 1 million in one week...

The Juno's award Celine Dion constantly too... if you get what I'm saying.
