So all you Earthdogs, Hellrats and Rivetheads get ready to rock out as we paint the town none more black on October 24th, 2017.”

Loudwire.com readers will be able to vote in several awards categories, including Album and Song of the Year, beginning on August 15, 2017. The centerpiece of the night will be a special award that honors one of heavy metal’s greatest icons, Black Sabbath guitarist and the architect of the entire heavy metal genre, Tony Iommi. Tony will be presented with the Courage Award, which recognizes not only his unparalleled musical output, but his absolute bravery in his battle with cancer. Going forward, this award will be named the “Iommi” and presented to future generations of courageous artists.

Tony Iommi, whose own hand served as the original mold for the official Loudwire Music AwardsHand Of Doom” trophy that will be presented to all winners and honorees, states, “Of all the funny things that I’ve done in my life — this was another one. I was asked if I would do a mold of my hand so that they could make it into an award … I was very honored. I was asked to put my arm into this big bucket full of this colored gel, all was going fine until it set and then I found that I couldn’t get my arm back out! My hand started to cramp up and I thought ‘Oh no, what now?’ Anyway, after a considerable amount of pulling and twisting it eventually came out and the cast looked amazing, so much detail, I’m really looking forward to seeing the finished award. Thanks Loudwire, what’s next?” See the video below.
