Artist of the Year:

As Cities Burn

- The reason that I chose As Cities Burn as the Artist of the Year, is because of how much they have changed and still managed to be successful. Think about it, after the band lost TJ, they could have easily picked someone new and continued working in the hardcore genre. But they took the chance to continue on as the band they were, but completely switch the genre of music they were going to produce. Knowing that the bets were against them, they went all in. And even though they lost a few closed minded fans, they continued to make a great album that was just as good as their debut album. And that is why As Cities Burn is my Artist of the Year.
