The Doom Charts for July 2025

 


DOOM CHARTS

JULY 2025

“As far as we were concerned, we were just a blues band that had decided to write some scary music.”

~ Ozzy Osbourne


We’ve said goodbye to one of our heroes. One that always felt like one of ours. Cause he never  hid his faults, his shortcomings and was honest about everything. He was one of a kind. And even though the character he was and finally became might have hindered some of his future actions, he was always himself and never shied away from doing what he loved doing. Music. He and his Birmingham mates are without any doubt responsible for all that music we so dearly love. The heavy stuff. All that he produced and all that he inspired. The forty albums in the list below are all in some way or form in dept to the cannon blast that he delivered. Ever since that ominous church bell, that first riff and that first vocal line… “What is this that stands before me?”

Well, Dear Ozzy… It’s the Doom Charts. And it would not exist if it wasn’t for you. None of the forty albums below would exist. And we thank you for them all. And we thank you for giving up petty crime and forming a band. We thank you for hunting around town for a microphone and amplifier. We thank you for finding the guys that became your band members… We thank you for the fucking awesome ad!  And we thank you for changing The Polka Tulk Blues Band into Black Sabbath… We thank you for all the music…

She's out! That lovely July edition of the Doom Charts!

An amazing edition once again, filled with 39 brand new albums for you to peruse! 39 you say?! Yes, one carried over from last month... None other than that ACEVES album MAGNUM DOPUS!

But as usual, I could have voted for them all! Gonna listen to them all in a row... Starting with Hemelbestormer's The Radiant Veil!
 
Already featured on Stoner HiVe...
