"Kingdom of Doom" is a song by the supposedly unnamed British alternative rock supergroup made up of Damon Albarn, Paul Simonon, Simon Tong and Tony Allen and is the fourth track on their 2007 album The Good, the Bad and the Queen (see 2007 in British music).
Contents
The song was also released as the band's second single in January 2007. Note that the single release, issued a week before the album came out, quite clearly credits the artist as The Good, The Bad & The Queen, although Albarn later claimed the band was unnamed, and that The Good, The Bad & The Queen was simply the name of the album.
Upon release, the single charted at #20, the only one of the band's three singles to reach the Top 20.
