With Doomsday Blue, Europe fell under Bambie Thug’s spell
PRESS/LILY LYTTONThis was the year Ouija-pop necromancer Bambie Thug clawed their way out of the underground and into the spotlight, thanks to a retina-searing appearance at Eurovision. The County Cork-born singer came sixth with their gothy electro-metal banger Doomsday Blue, giving Ireland their highest placing in more than 20 years and proving once again that metal deserves a place on the Eurovision stage.
Well, someone’s had a very exciting year.
