The Doom Charts for February 2023

 

 

Doom Charts

“Death is but a doorway, time is but a window, I’ll be back.”

~ Vigo

And we are back! Just like clockwork, every damn month again, the Doom Charts are back! The first Friday of the new month and here we are with the February list of forty albums that all those Contributors loved so dearly. A Friday that sees the release of many new albums as well, and since it’s Bandcamp Friday, well… Take your pick! Or buy them all! Three albums carried over from January. Which means there are 37 spanking new albums on the list below. And just so you know, a lot of the Contributors were struggling to whittle down their list of favorite albums to the 25 they are allowed to send in. And a lot of the Contributors stated they already have a massive list of amazing albums for March as well. Crazy. So much brilliant heavy rock, so many breathtaking albums. We love it. So, indeed, who ever said rock ‘n roll was dead, and never understood what Vigo knew all along…

The February Doom Charts are here!

It's Bandcamp Friday and it coincides with the February Doom Charts! Does this make things simpler or more complicated? Cause all those FORTY albums are absolute stunners!  Personal votes on this months' list went out to: Hail the Void, Cleõphüzz, Dead Shrine, Khan, Westing, WARP, Grandma's Ashes, Abanamat, POLYMOON, Rotor, Emperors Lair, Witch City Music / Old Mine Universe, Swell O, Wolves in Winter, Sandrider, Moodoom and CHILD! The only one we mentioned on the HiVe so far is WARP, but there surely will be more to follow soon... Check'm out! Check'm all out!!

Welcome to Doom Charts, representing some of the finest bloggers, journalists, radio, podcasters and reviewers from the heavy underground around the globe.  Each month, our critics submit their picks for the best new doom, sludge, metal, stoner, psychedelic and heavy rock albums.  The results are compiled and tabulated into the chart below.  This is a one-stop shop for the best new albums in the world…
