Code Orange are one of the nominees for Best Metal Performance for the 60th annual Grammy Awards, alongside August Burns Red, Body Count, Mastodon and Meshuggah.

If anything's clear, the bands who are getting Grammy attention this year are a different breed than metal bands of years past.

“Code Orange, for example, is one of the heaviest hardcore/metal bands in the industry right now. It’s hard to conceive that their extremely brutal 'Forever' has garnered the admiration and respect of a voting committee that tends to air on the conservative or traditional side of metal,” Taylor Markarian writes. “Amidst all of the disbelief over this, one thing is certain: Times are changing.”
