FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The underground heavy music world is once again turning its attention to the latest Doom Charts June 2026 , where multiple Metal Devastation PR clients have landed strong placements among the most talked about doom, stoner, and psych releases worldwide.
Leading the charge is the collaborative release ** DOOMHERRE / ORDOS / HEXJAKT / KAISER – The Four Altars of Sin , released via Majestic Mountain Records , landing at #17 with 1719 points .
At #20, North Carolina heavyweights BROADSLAB return in force with The Fifth Essence , released through Electric Desert Records , earning 1192 points and marking a powerful comeback after a 12 year gap between records.
Of The Four Altars of Sin , Jon McGough noted:
“Four altars. Four bands. Four devious offerings forged in hellfire and doom. Four Altars of Sin unfolds like a forbidden ritual…”
The review goes on to describe the release as a unified journey of crushing atmosphere and towering riffs, with each artist contributing to a cohesive, ritualistic descent into doom worship rather than competing for dominance.
For The Fifth Essence , Rich Piva praised BROADSLAB’s return, calling it a long overdue comeback:
“We need their version of southern stoner soul metal now more than ever… a riff filled, swampy southern metal party that you can hear blasting from North Carolina to all points around the world.”
These placements continue a strong run of visibility for underground heavy music across global doom and stoner scenes, with both releases gaining traction among critics, radio programmers, and record collectors who continue to drive the genre’s resurgence in physical and independent formats.
For the artists involved, the Doom Charts recognition reinforces what fans already know. Heavy music is alive, evolving, and still being pushed forward by bands willing to take risks, stretch atmospheres, and keep things loud, slow, and unapologetically heavy.
