Welcome to Doom Charts, representing some of the finest bloggers, journalists, radio, podcasters and album reviewers from the heavy underground, around the globe. Each month, our critics submit their picks for what’s rocking their world in the heavy underground scene.  The results are compiled and tabulated into the Doom Charts. This is a one-stop shop for the best new heavy albums in the world.

Bands, labels & PR reps:

Please send album submissions via email to stonerdoomcharts@gmail.com and/or to the individual blogs & websites listed below. For the Doom Charts do not review themselves, they just blurb about the ones that make the list that month… Please include download options or bandcamp codes. (Around 30 of the more than 80 Contributors are highly active on Bandcamp) And realize we cannot reply to many emails. Not only because of limited time, but also because of the many forwarding we have to do to our Contributors. But know, every email will be viewed and full album promos will always be forwarded to all Contributors…
