SMASH LIKE AND VOTE FOR THE NIK NOCTURNAL AWARDS 2023 HERE: niknocturnalawards2023.tv/
you got it buddy!
why isnt wargasm on the best album list
It’s REALLY tough only being able to vote once per category 😭
Done
My only wish is that Orbit Culture showed up in more categories
Even if you are too humble to include yourself, this has been your year Nik. I don't think I've seen a UA-camr artist pump out so much high-quality content in one year. It's been crazy.
Bro seen his Spotify playback and was like i have become too powerful
Nik has crushed it and the recognition is well deserved.
For sure. Nik's content was poo-poo last year!
Year of trash content don't you mean
Yeah I agree! But it's not even being too humble he's litterally the host so by default he can't put himself in as a nomination.
Thank God we have Nik to give metal the spotlight in awards that it deserves
Idk. Isn't it like, "Nik Noc fans and twitch followers rank scene metal"? What it felt like last year. I was looking forward to. But it was too much hype for the same bands. I like that he's doing it, but looking at the numbers, so many only come for reactions and fun stuff. When it goes deeper, there's only the core of Noc fans left it seems
I really appreciate the effort you are putting in this nik. Thanks for representing fun metal things
Ive added so much new music to my rotation this year it makes me even prouder to be a metalhead! Its been exhausting but fun 😊!
As a hard lorna fan, at first I was upset they weren't nominated, until I remembered they haven't released anything this year (though they did release a few cool music videos, but ok 🥲) amazing thing overall, already got my vote in. See you on stream, brother 🤘🏼
I mean, they released Pain Remains Instrumental... :D
i went through the same confusion when i didnt see Will listed under the Best Vocalist choices lol
They toured, that should give them some credit at least
Just seeing The Amity Affliction being considered for multiple categories makes me so happy, I really feel like they aren't talked about enough let alone honored in this way.
Can't wait for the results to drop. I'm glad that (almost) all of my favorites were actually listed.
Song of the year Silent Planet - Antimatter to me.
Album Orbit Culture - the Descent
EP Spirit Box - Fear of Fear
Antimatter definitely, amazing song
It’s pretty wild how you became the pulse of the metal scene. You got the metal meme, the song covers, and the band interviews. Now you have the biggest online metal music award shows that doesn’t take itself too seriously so it’s just fun
ive never been more stoked in my life
It’s been such a badass year for Metal!
My votes are sent! Thanks for doing this Nik! I'd also like to add an honorable mention for ERRA and their song Pale Iris.
I really love your idea although I really miss some nominations for example:
- Album of the year: DOPE - Blood Money Part Zer0; KIM DRACULA - A Gradual Decline in Morale
- Vocalist of the year: Ronnie Radke (Falling in Reverse); Kim Dracula (Kim Dracula); Daniel Tompkins (TesseracT)(his performance in "Legion" was insane)
- Song of the Year: BLIND CHANNEL - Flatline
- Cachiest Chorus: BRING ME THE HORIZON - LosT/AmEN! (in my opinion these 2 are so much cachier than DArkSide)
but I guess its hard to represent everybodys favourites in a nomination list, but maybe you could add more choices in 2024
But thats just my opinion! What does the rest think?
I think he only nominates things from this year, or am I wrong? So I don't think they can make it into the awards next year
No they can't@@kobiboy123
That was way harder to vote than I was expecting. That was painstaking!
I'm so glad you included Orphan's Hourglass song, cause holy shit. That song should win for people to discover that Band
This will be the top comment for no reason whatsoever
Edit: like i said, never doubt my abilities :D
Make it happen for the fun Metal things
Ok! You got this
Speak your true king 👑🗣️🗣️
For the people who don’t like this comment.. WHY DO YOU HATE THINGS?!!
Yes.
im so proud of how far youve come, you really put in the effort and it shows Nik, keep kicking ass, looking forward to the awards
2:55 NO! embrace the jank! the jank was what made it special 😂
Anthony Fantano as best metalhead to follow 💀
Just finished voting; some of those categories had really tough choices.
I started following Nik this year and I am so honoured to be part of this lovely community! Can't wait for this event!! 🥰
We need spotify playlist for every category
Having to pick between Currents and Invent Animate is a tough one. I feel like I'm betraying the one I don't pick
The best thing about this is the list of songs I get to go listen to that I havent heard yet!
Nick, I've been watching your content for a long time now, and when I saw the award show last year, I knew it was going to be an absolute game changer. I knew your award show was going to be extremely important to the culture that's been forgotten about within the music industry. I can't wait for the show, the hype is real over here. See you on the 15th.
I had such a hard time choosing who to vote for at so many categories..it's really been a great year for metal.
Thank you Nik for doing so many fun metal things, I'm excited for the award show!
the song of the year portion of the vote is KILLING ME like half of them were in my top 15 songs on spotify wrapped....like Jaded is so good but i feel like code mistake was such a big collab and breakthrough into mainstream kinda stuff. but like the summoning bro. and its a crime to not put vildhjarta in there somewhere
As a guy who got introduced to the metal scene by you, at the start of this year, I can't wait to see THE FAMOUS NIK NOCTURNAL AWARDS OF THE 2023 live. Even though it will be midnight for me))
what is "sleep" anyway?
Yo Ive been looking forward to this, love that its happening again!
The hero we need and deserve as the metal community. Thank you Nik!
Last year awards were top-tier, can't wait for this year's, thank you Nik!
So glad Metal is still thriving in 2023, and events like these keep the flame alive, thank you Mr. Nocturnal for keeping us updated with the nastiest and most fresh zoo noises in the market!
The selection to listen to here is simply incredible and I very much look forward to make my vote. Goot shit man.
The variarity is even better than last year, incredible work nik!🔥
Man so many solid choices worth voting for. Never had such a hard time before lol
If there ever is a legitimate metal award show to appear in the near future, you deffo deserve the right to host it!
Should've had more Graystone personally but, the animal noises category is valid. The Sunfyre meme was hilarious though. Still voted for Jared for the amazing Musician Mansion idea.
Nice! Got the day off work for this. Hyped.
This was such a _banger_ year for metal, really one of the things that keep me going is knowing at least music is doing alright now!
Absolutely love your channel and the music you put out into the universe...keep up the great work Nik 🤘🏼😈🤘🏼🏴
Good luck with your event man, hope all goes well! Votes casted, wish johnny booth got more attention tho
so excited for this, some great nominations this year, although I will say if I had the choice, best Breakdown would go to Fool’s Gold, the MIW track off of scoring deluxe, those breakdown riffs are too good to pass up on combined with chris’ screams
i was going to post something sarcastic about the legion of memers getting hold of your promo card photo (ah well, still did...) but dude, this is bloody impressive!
i am delighted to see canada really pimping metal this year. with you, ohrion and metalbirb doing the good work, my musical horizon has expanded like dr who's [nope i can't think of anything else but i can't type that thought where it could be found later] now RTD is back in charge and you are definitely responsible for large chunks of it.
genuinely, thank you for your work, i love it, my kids like spiritbox now, they loved "red panda" with the charismatic voice so yeah, carry on.
love you nick. Still remember meeting you in person at the RHD CD release show like 4 years ago, it was a good time
Most of the categories didn’t have what I would have picked as options, there’s a lot of releases every year so I understand. The 2 big ones I’d point out though are Drummer of the year Cody Davidson, EP of the year Slamaholics vol.2 by Peelingflesh.
Before voting video of the year, please watch bleed the future by Archspire, they went all out.
Voted.
Hyped for the stream.
(If I had to knit-pick one thing it's that I didn't see Unprocessed's new album listed on the Album of the Year category)
What an amazing year, can't wait for the show!
No Spencer Sotelo nomination for best vocalist 😭
2023 had been a great fucking year for metal. I just went to Christmas Burns Red this weekend and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I love metal so much and I'm so happy there are so many awesome metal bands at this particular moment in history. 🤘❤️
Honorable mentions:
Album of the year: Dying Fetus - Make Them Beg for Death
Content creator: Ola Englund
Veil of Maya missing from so many categories in the voting... After [M]other? Brutal Nik!
Appreciate all you do Nik ❤️ only gripe I have is not including unprocessed album in album of the year , imo better than so many you included and in my top 5 for sure, but I guess can't have everything included, and it's based on what you heard as well 😅 I voted them for best guitarist at least (Josh from Sylosis was also sick this year)
I would lol so hard if:
- Unprocessed's "Thrash" Lo-Fi breakdown wins;
- AI overlord BOI WHAT wins a metal award he deserves (instead of rock charts);
- people all agree CPU is the best bassist; and/or
- everyone votes for Sunfyre to troll Nik.
Also, can anyone help me deciding between "Florida alligator" or "mating dinosaurs" for the animal noise of the year?
On The Verge was my top song of 2023 haha can't wait for the show!
Polaris - Fatalism has to take AOTY for me... but holy damn this was so hard... so many good bands, so many good albums, BLEGHS, and so on.
Nik, we have to talk. You can't pretend to make a legit metals award thing and completely overlook the triumphant return of Scar Symmetry.
Surprised Spencer Sotelo wasn’t nominated as a vocalist. He’s probably the best vocalist on the scene
Ty so much for all of this Nik! :D
I have a full physical that day so I guess my dr gets to watch, too.
Voted second year in a row. This is gonna be a good one. We appreciate all your hard work nik.
I was waiting for this! Thanks again for keep metal alive with this kind of stuff.. we support You nik keep rocking My Man 🔥
So happy to see TesseracT on the list they are so amazing and don't get enough credit. Thanks, Nik, for helping spread love throughout the metal world!
This is literally the only metal vote of the year that counts. Stoked!
This was actually one of the best years for metal IMO, so many good albums/EPs came out this year.
I am not a metal artist but I love metal and truly love and appreciate this. Who knows, maybe my music could have some metal eventually.
Thx for including Orphan's Hourglass in the best BLEGHs list, more people should talk about how dirty and disgusting that noise is
I had to choose my favorite breakdown with the momentum of my headbang (only way i had left to choose between The Browning and Jiluka)
sp glad you put a bassist category in. all of them are great choices too.
WE LOVE FUN METAL THINGS!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this Nik!!! Can’t wait.
Top slogan of the year: “We do fun metal things heeeere!”. You go Nik! You do such a massive and good thing for metal 💜
These videos are so awesome. You rekindled my love for metal. Thank you. Also thanks for helping me to find new artists. You’re badass. And funny as hell. I’m gonna do my best to catch the stream. Already voted.
I think we needed more falling in reverse theyre one of the best bands in metal. But im so happy Nik Nocturnal is doing this. This is awesome for the metal community im happy nik is doin it
Nick should have included the unprocessed and fit for a King Bassists. One is insanely good and the other does cool flips on stage.
Mental Cruelty - Zwielicht, for me, is the album of the year for sure
Lukas is such a perfect fit for the band!
You gotta add Unique Leader to the record labels! They got To the Grave, Worm Shep, peelingflesh, crown magnetar, etc
Bloody hell, that's amazing
This is dope!
HYPED!
yey I'm stoked!! can't wait to see it
I love this so much ❤
Thank you for doing this Nik!
Big love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Thank you Nik ❤
Lmaoo Nik rlly put CPU as best bassist of the year
Thank you for continuing to bless me with fun metal things
This is going to be fire 🔥 thank you NIK for doing this once again which is going to bigger & better 🙌💎
The fact that amongst the low and empty didn’t make his breakdown of the year list blows my mind
i cant believe its already been a year since the last awards. 2023 flew tf by.
Incredible news!
Sylosis GOATed this year!
Can’t wait to watch more fun metal things
Woo sounds like its going to be a blast!
proving that I believe in "fun metal things" here
