The MTV Video Music Awards are now set for Sunday, Sept. 12 and there will be some rock representation at this year's ceremony. Nominees were announced Wednesday (Aug. 11) with fan voting set to run through Sept. 3.

While the big categories are once again pop dominated, rock acts have made their presence felt in both the Best Rock and Best Alternative categories. For Best Rock, you'll find Evanescence's "Use My Voice" and Foo Fighters' "Shame Shame" videos competing against The Killers' "My Own Soul's Warning," John Mayer's "Last Train Home," Kings of Leon's "The Bandit" and Lenny Kravitz's "Raise Vibration."

In the Best Alternative category, Machine Gun Kelly and Blackbear's "My Ex's Best Friend" and Twenty One Pilots' "Shy Away" are up against Bleachers' "Stop Making This Hurt," Glass Animals' "Heat Waves," Imagine Dragons' "Follow You" and Willow's "Transparent Soul" featuring Travis Barker.

Foo Fighters' "Shame Shame" is also nominated in two of the technical categories for Best Cinematography and Best Choreography.

The 2021 MTV Video Music Awards will take place Sunday, Sept. 12 at New York's Barclays Center. The awards show will be broadcasted at 8PM ET on MTV, CW, CMT, Comedy Central, Logo, MTV2, Nickelodeon, Paramount Network, Pop, TV Land and VH1.
