MY TOP 30 HARD ROCK/METAL/GOTH/PUNK/ALT ALBUMS OF 2016.

 

I initially intended to write an end of year top 10, but there have been so many amazing albums released this year that I got a little carried away and made a top 30 instead. I've omitted EPs (although I have to give a shout out to the particularly enjoyable EPs by Ghost [review here], Skarlett Riot, Black Sabbath, Lilith And The Knight [review here] and Novacrow), and I've also omitted my own bands album, as including it would be egotistical and a little sad.

About: LESBIAN BED DEATH - Evil Never Dies

Only an utter cretin would review their own band's album. However, I'm incredibly proud of Evil Never Dies so please indulge me, as I'd like to write a bit about it.

Movie review: THE PURGE: ELECTION YEAR

I'm a huge fan of the first two Purge movies, so much so that my band wrote a song about them (Check out Survive the Night by Lesbian Bed Death on the Evil Never Dies album). To say I was very excited to see this third instalment in the franchise is an understatement. Unfortunately, I missed it at the cinema this year. I'm lucky enough to have three cinemas close to where I live, yet only one showed it. Even then, the movie disappeared really quickly. I was genuinely gutted when I looked at the listings to go and see it and it was already gone. It's sad that Horror movies don't seem to have the mainstream appeal in the UK that they do in America. So alas, my sorry ass had to wait for several months to watch it. I bought the Blu-Ray on Boxing Day, the day it went on sale here. I'm pleased to say it was worth the wait.
