Did you miss who won at the 2017 APMAs from Cleveland? Don't sweat, find the full list of Alternative Press Music Awards right here, including Best Bassist, Korn's “Fieldy” Arvizu.
Each summer, the Alternative Press Music Awards creates a temporary hub for the best in alternative music of all stripes. Tours are re-routed, overnight drives are endured and showers are skipped, all so this community of artists can come together in a fury of celebration. Part summer camp, part reunion, you never know what will happen at the APMAs.
Korn sat down with The Recording Academy to talk about their 12th studio album, Serenity Of Suffering, as well as what makes Machine Gun Kelly unique, advice for aspiring musicians and what they want their legacy to be.
Machine Gun Kelly discusses crossing genres, feeling inspired while on tour and advice he has for aspiring musicians.

That's where we come in! For the third year running, The Recording Academy was onsite, behind the scenes and backstage, talking with your favorite artists from the show. This year, we enlisted Anthony Vincent, the multitalented musician behind Ten Second Songs, to be our man on the ground and provide a candid look at the mayhem in Cleveland.
With performances from Korn, Pierce The Veil, All Time Low, the Pretty Reckless, and more, and the debut of Black Veil Brides' Andy Biersack as host, there was plenty of action at this year's awards. In anticipation of the festivities, take a look back at some highlights from our coverage of past APMAs.

In 2015 we took an in-depth look at the APMAs with exclusive interviews, rehearsal footage and artist reactions as Alternative Press celebrated its 30th anniversary with a special exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and a killer show.
