Earlier tonight at the 49th annual Grammy Awards at The Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA, Slayer was awarded The Grammy for Best Metal Performance for 'Eyes Of The Insane' from their Christ Illusion album. Sadly, the award was not part of the televised broadcast.

The other nominees in the Best Metal Performance category were: Lamb Of God for 'Redneck', Mastodon for 'Colony Of Birchmen', Ministry for 'Lies, Lies, Lies' and Stone Sour for '30/30-150'.

This was Slayer's second Grammy nomination, the first being in 2002 for the track 'Disciple' from God Hates Us All, also in the Best Metal Performance category. Tool took home The Grammy that year for 'Schism'.
