The '018 Doomy Awards presented by 3am Revelations

December 31, 2018 by Kirk Hamilton in Awards

As I say every year, no one really cares about year-end best-of lists anymore. At best, you glance at them with a vague sense of disagreement before maybe complaining online, then completely forgetting about it.

And that's where The 3am Awards come in. In lieu of a list, I give you the awards you didn't even realise you've been waiting for:

The '018 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 honours the deserving songs, albums, and artists in the form of randomly named award categories, as chosen by me (Kirk). And even though the awards may be a little glib (to say the least) these are legitimately some of my favourites of the year.

Without further ado, and in no particular order, click through for the results!
