Heavy Metallurgy Presents Episode

[@cbn6635]

AOTY 2002 for me: Mastodon 'Remission' Changed the whole way, I perceive metal drumming, and instantly made Brann Dailor one of my favorite drummers.. 👌 Great episode, guys! 👍

Album of the Year: Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors

[@emersonsellsout]

The Red Chord - Fused Together In Revoling Doors. One of the best metal albums ever!

[@GroundZeroSalem]

I saw them a bunch of times right when this came out. Some of the scariest pits I've seen ever. Great album.

[@sundaymorningsessions]

My favorite album of 2002 is The Crown - Crowned In Terror!

[@weh8684]

Yob - Elaborations Of Carbon is going to be my favorite of 2002. They were still unknown and played a small dive bar in Seattle. They blew the minds of everyone there. Thanks for the great show!!

[@scottmazza3598]

Man this was awesome. Came here cause I saw GZS post it on Instagram. You guys definitely have to do more of these.

[@majorleerager7126]

Great episode (as always) Pat & Jason rules !!! My favorite of 2002 is Nile "In their Darkened Shrines" Cheers !

[@wadeconrad5573]

Favorite album of 2002, Opeth- Deliverance

[@thomassiegemund431]

Great show guys, it was great to have such a variety (Metal, Punk, Hardcore) of music. Keep it going guys. My favorit of 2002: Dead Soul Tribe - Dead Soul Tribe. Devon Graves followup to Psychotic Walz, a total banger.

[@MJCarty]

Great episode! Best album of 2002 has to be Nehëmah - Light of a Dead Star.

[@cthuludreams1]

2002 favorite was definitely Nile - In Their Darkened Shrines ! Great record

[@jamesgrove3224]

My fav from 2002 is High on Fire Surrounded by Thieves. They were a breath of fresh air back in 2002.

[@celticfrosty6696]

Dio - Killing the Dragon Great episode gentlemen.

[@hattorihanzo2275]

When I worked at a Toys R Us, the janitor was telling me stories of the weird stuff he found in the bathrooms. He said the worst of the worst was always in the women's room. One woman had a blowout all over the toilet, wall and divider.

[@tony-lj1rm]

agalloch the mantle, and down down 2: abusle in your hedgegrow are my favorites from 02.

[@Om-maa]

My pick of the year has to be Pain of Salvation's Remedy Lane. Hot on its heels was Meshuggah's Nothing and a bit further down the stretch Opeth's Deliverance. All absolute bangers from Sweden.

[@joshuacraig8502]

Dark tranquillity - damage done Bloodbath - resurrection through carnage

[@forever_underground]

There are definitely several albums I love from 2002 that it could have been. Wish it could be some super obscure album that got me tons of street cred. But sludge/post metal was all the rage at the time in my circle. I gotta go with Isis - Oceanic. It just wouldn't feel right not to pick it. Looking back on how obsessed I was with it. Hope my entry isn't too late. I never miss a show, even if I have to watch later on. Cheers!

[@vayichrah]

Someone else already mentioned it, but Elaborations of Carbon by Yob would be my retroactive top pick for 2002. Even in their early days, Mike and co. already had their beastly and enormous sound sorted out in a way most bands take a few tries to get.

[@dirkamondant3445]

Behold the electronomicon!!Electric Hellfire Club for the win!

[@kyleriegger6498]

I think my favorite metal album of that year would have to be Sons of Northern Darkness.

[@SkullOfTheAbyss]

Agalloch - The Mantle…. Hard to pick favorites but I will go with it!

[@Mountaingloom]

Look away now, Professor Steele, but my 2002 favourite is Blind Guardian - A Night at the Opera. Yes, it is a big change even from Nightfall, but I think they execute it so well, and I've been enjoying this album since I was a kid basically.

[@ToriLuxÆterna]

Firewind - between heaven and hell

[@glanglan2687]

Sentenced-The Cold White Light

[@cthuludreams1]

Alan, I was at that Rhapsody gig in NC, also

[@scottmazza3598]

Also one release you guys missed that would have united the metal guys and hardcore punk guys is Inepsy - see you in hell ep

[@hattorihanzo2275]

I dig the viking vibes on Nordland I.

[@cowmark67]

Looking back at 2002 (all genres) I couldn't come up with many notable releases. There is just a void in this year for me as I was only 5 years old at the time and didn't really start deep diving into metal until the pandemic. In high school I loved Believe by Disturbed (and still do), but now my favorite metal album of 2002 would probably be Nordland I by Bathory.

[@the_real_schopenhauer985]

My favourite album of 2002 is Porcupine Tree - In Absentia, just slightly edging out Dead Sout Tribe's ST debut and a complete non-metal album, Timeloss by swedish band Paatos.

[@WilliamRyan-h2y]

My favorite of 2002 is Symphony X - The Odyssey

[@nundo7781]

AOTY 2002: Bloodbath - Resurrection througn Carnage Honorable mention: Necrophobic - Bloodhymns
