I'll assume for a moment this is actually a serious question and answer: Amnesiac didn't receive much radio play at all, the videos (despite being creative and original) were not played on MTV or VH1, and the album itself didnt sell in large volumes. It may not have been Album of the Year, but it certainly was worthy of at least being nominated for Best Alternative Album, and Radiohead as a band were certainly worthy of being nominated for best rock performance.

I'm not a huge fan the way I am with U2, but I really appreciate what Radiohead does artistically, and I don't understand how they can be passed over for recognition.

yes, well the esteemed Academy once annointed U2 with "Best Alternative Album"
if Coldplay is "alternative" it may be time for an "ultra-alternative" category, or "music that is 'out there' that we admit we have never actually listened to but we hear from our sources that it's innovative and original so maybe we should recognize it" category (oh I could see Thom gleefully accepting that award)
