Information- Any band/artist is able to compete (Ranging from as old as Queen to as new as Taylor Hicks). The only thing is that they most have songs with English lyrics. No foreign music, unless they have broken the language barrier or are widely known by people. (Examples, Utada Hikaru and Ayumi Hamasaki)
- You may suggest artists/bands to compete. - Right now, I am looking for artists to compete for the Best New Artists of 2006 poll. Here are the guidelines.
- The artist's full-length debut CD must've been released sometime in 2006. EPs will not count. Singles that were released in 2005 are fine, as long as the full-length debut CD was released in 2006.
- They cannot have been in the top twelve of any Idol (American Idol, Canadian Idol, etc). So this means that Chris Daughtry, Eva Avila, Taylor Hicks, Stefi D., et cetera can NOT be included.
- They don't have to be on a largely-known record label (like Epic or Maverick) to be included. So, yes, they can be on an independent record label like Fueled By Ramen or The Militia Group.
- Every Sunday the votes will be tallied and a new round will be posted.
