Danish Metal Awards

Danish Metal Awards, ofte forkortet DMeA, var en dansk prisuddeling inden for metalmusik, der blev uddelt fem gange fra år 2005 indtil opløsningen af foreningen i juni 2010. Den blev afholdt i Amager Bio. Værten til prisuddelingerne fra 2005-2008 har været Carsten Holm, der normalt er radiovært på DRs P3. I 2009 var Camilla Jane Lea fra P3 og Max Christensen fra Pilgrimz værter.

Kategorien "Året liveband" blev afgjort ved afstemning på prisuddelingens hjemmeside. Prisuddelingen 2007 blev efterfølgende vist på musikkanalen MTV. I 2009 fik vinderen af "Årets debut" automatisk en koncert til metalfestivallen Copenhell.

De to gruppe Volbeat og Hatesphere er de mest vindende bands ved prisuddelingen, og har modtaget i alt fem priser hver, og begge har modtaget prisen for "Bedste album" to gange. Volbeat har været nomineret 15 gange til forskellige priser, og dermed det mest nominerede band mens Hatesphere sammenlagt blev nomineret 11 gange til forskellige priser.
