Below you will find the posters for the winners of the Best Score award at the BAMs. I considered looking for YouTube clips to accompany them but obsessively uploading anything and everything is a new phenomenon and some were hard to find so rather than post some but not all I decided to forgo it. Secondly, the only thing that really needs to be noted, as you can see for yourself the multiple winners, is that somehow in 2008 (when I already posted winners online) I omitted the category. I have no excuse for this but I won’t try to retroactively fix it, it is what it is. It’s things like that which have me more vigilantly listing my considerations.
