Last year we held the 6th annual THERMAL AWARDS live on Thermal Soundwaves radio. It got loads
of reactions and responses of course. Some got offended again and a lot of people laughed. We are
not interested in those who were offended. We are interested in free expression. The Thermal Awards
are not based on record sales, soundscan, billboard, payola, popularity etc. However some may win
due to pixism or niggerism. The awards are constructed on talent, skill, originality, quality, humor, the
truth, thought provocation, and from time to time drunkenness or lack of sleep. For the most part, it is to recognize some people or artist who should be. Of course, there will be controversy and disagreements, but we encourage you to tell us what you think. Send us your thoughts at: thermalsoundwaves@gmail.com.
In a year that brought a lot of crap, rehab, heavy plastic surgery, horrendous gimmicks, half naked chicks playing themselves, arrests, fake publicity, nonsense, lack of creativity, ill timed confessions and industry suicides, We carry on a proud tradition.
And Now we make history……….Again !
