The '022 Doomy Awards presented by 3am Revelations

December 30, 2022 by Kirk Hamilton in Awards

If you’ve followed this blog for any amount of years, you will probably know that I don’t like lists. And at the top of the list of lists I don’t like is Year End Lists. Usually you’ll just glance at them, maybe agree, maybe disagree, maybe complain... then completely forget about them and go about your day. Besides, who actually enjoys ranking art? So as is now tradition, that's where The Doomy Awards come in. In lieu of a “best of” list, I give you the award show you were waiting for (whether you knew it or not).

The '022 Doomy Awards presented by 3am Revelations

Awarded for Outstanding Musical Musicianship
in the Field of Music

These awards take a look at this year in music and honour the deserving songs, albums, and artists in the form of goofy award categories, as chosen by me (Kirk). And even though some awards may be a little silly, these are legitimately some of my favourite songs and albums of the year. Whenever possible, all artist links are to their bandcamp pages or direct websites, where you can/should go listen to and purchase these songs & albums!

So without further ado, and in no particular order, click through to find out the winners!
