Doom Charts
The May 2022 edition of the Doom Charts is here! Only two entries carried over from the Forty we published back in April. I’m sure you can do the math, but that means, 38 new albums listed! Of a total of 255 that received votes. Although that wild ECSTATIC VISION album carried over from that post of pure adoration called Peroration. Madman Tony Maim wrote back then:
“ECSTATIC VISION have a heavy, sun-drenched psychedelic/stoner sound that pays tribute to 70’s hard rock. Vocals are clean and put through reverb for a great trippy effect. Riffs are plentiful and the dirty fuzzed sound is perfect to get your head moving. But – before you start to get too comfortable, ECSTATIC VISION throw in passages that start to pile on the intensity with meatier playing which morph Hawkwind with The Stooges! This is the good shit.”
And he was right! It might be the final post from Tony for a while, for he is taking a breather. Catch you on the flipside Madman! But, we’re also welcoming back Tom Hanno and the join-up of Monster Riff founder Pat Schober. Welcome on board, let’s set sail for uncharted waters and listen to some good and heavy stuff!
May is all sorts of heavy and heavy of all sorts! Just peruse that new edition of the Doom Charts! So many great releases once again...
Personal votes of the ones that made the list went out to: Wo Fat, Besvärjelsen, Ecstatic Vision, Geezer, Red Moon Shaman, UFOMAMMUT, The Same River, Stöner, Wucan, Helms Alee & Red Sun Atacama...
Will be doing a rundown of the entire May list in a row once again starting today! And starting with that awesome Red Sun Atacama album DARWIN!
