Tom's Top 15 Albums of 2013

Another year has come and gone and I am more than happy to share my 5th list as I have done one from 2009 and on. Blogging for all of these years only makes year ends lists harder to complete. Not that they are cumbersome yet, you want your voice to be heard and well. Let's face it, everybody and their mom likes a good list.

Church Of Misery - Thy Kingdom Scum

With the impending release of the first Ozzy Osbourne-fronted Black Sabbath album since 1978 to be released in the coming days, doom metal is most certainly on the rise. One such band is one I have only become familiar with in the past year and that would be Japan's Church Of Misery. The band is chock full of riffs and lyrical content that has covered only the most vile serial killers this planet has ever seen.  Thy Kingdom Scum is their 5th album and their first in 4 years and it is more of the same great doom that you should expect from this band from the land of the rising sun.
