It’s hard to remember that we haven’t even reached the middle of the year with everything that’s been happening lately, but something to remind us about it are award ceremonies. The British magazine Kerrang! recently announced the list of nominees for their 2016 edition of their Kerrang! Awards event.
The categories for the event scheduled to be held at the Troxy in London, England on June 9th, covers different spectrums of entertainment, including video games, television and film, but the main focus is always heavy music. To host the show, Kerrang! tapped Justin Hawkins of The Darkness and Benji Webbe of Skindred/Dub War who will present, with live performances from Asking Alexandria and many others.
