Grammys 2014: Kacey Musgraves wins award for best country album



The biggest breakout success of 2013, Kacey Musgraves Same Trailer Different Park, was singled out for the country album Grammy Award in a field otherwise dominated by contemporary countrys heaviest hitters: Jason Aldean, Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton and Taylor Swift.

But there was scarcely a better reviewed collection during the year: It scored an 88 (out of a possible 100) on Metacritic.coms aggregate review website, eliciting superlatives from critics around the country for snappy lyrics and clich-free perspectives on a multitude of life situations,delivered with confident vocals and wrapped in traditional country arrangements.

Each track evokes an emotion, a giggle, a tear or a memory, Country Weekly wrote in its review, but always a hunger for whats next. Musgraves emerged from East Texas, released three albums herself before taking her shot on the Nashville Star reality music competition, where she came in seventh during the 2007 season.

Many in Nashville, however, noticed her solid songwriting,including another Texan, Miranda Lambert, and Martina McBride, both of whom recorded her songs before Musgraves scored a recording contract and released her major-label debut. Her first Grammy Award signals a promising future.

The Grammys are determined by about 13,000 voting members. The eligibility period for nominated recordings was Oct. 1, 2012, to Sept. 30, 2013. The 56th awards are being held atStaples Center and telecast on CBS. They are broadcast live except for viewers on the West Coast.

Warmachine Cryx Skarlock Recent Reviews

My Skarlock Thrall arrived and looked amazing. The only problems I had with the manufactured goods was having to bend the "ectoplasm" on the head cut to get it to line up with the mid section. Additionally, it was kinda hard to get the tail end of the ectoplasm to attach by the book. All in all, a actually nice looking cut and an almost essential cut for your Cryx army. - Robert Powers it showed up on time, and it was very fussy and not broken. and it wasn't ridiculously expensive. a good deal. - Morgan Hubert Warmachine Cryx Skarlock Enclosed in foggy, necromantic runes of reanimation, the Skarlock provides Cryxian warcasters with additional spell support and a longer reach in the gathering of souls. Miniatures suggest itself unpainted and unassembled in their original packaging. Books are in brand extra condition.
