Tony Maim – Personal Top 20 of 2025

 

Tony Maim – Personal Top 20 of 2025

The first of the Personal Top 20 lists to go live this year! Madman Tony Maim was too late sending his list this year. So, it wasn't added to the Top 20 Countdown of 2025. But since he did write one review for the HiVe in 2025, we still count Madman Tony Maim as a team member. And if not that, than as family... Working to hard at the hospital made him reduce his extracurricular activities. So, he's no longer involved with the Doom Charts and no longer doing his own Black Insect Laughter blog. He spends his time on the more important things in life. But he still listens and still knows best about all the good stuff being release on a daily basis... And he explained his busy life through his last musical release for his Guitars On Drugs project called: Spiral. Always diligent when it comes to punk and noise and righteous ruckus. Well, it’s Madman Tony Maim; and he’s right, we’re wrong. And when the Madman speaks, we listen! So, here's his choice list of 20 favorite albums of 2025!
