But it's not all pop -- arena-rockers Billy Talent hope to add to their seven lifetime MMVAs with nods for 'Devil on my Shoulder' and 'Saint Veronika,' while their hard rock buddies Alexisonfire are also looking to bolster their MMVA collection with three nominations. Metric, recently hand-picked to write the theme song to 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,' is up for indie video of the year.

The MMVAs air on MuchMusic Sunday, June 20 at 9PM with the red carpet beginning at 8PM.
