It's crazy to think that 2019 marks 15 years of Metal Injection. I thought it would be fun to take a look back at some of the albums that came out the year the site was born and instantly I felt like an old man.
Here is a list of 15 albums that, to me, best represent the scene in 2004, all of which are celebrating their 15th anniversary this year. In no particular order…
The Acacia Strain – 3750
Pig Destroyer – Terrifyer
Shadows Fall – The War Within
Lamb of God – Ashes of the Wake
Machine Head – Through the Ashes of Empires
Mastodon – Leviathan
Necrophagist – Epitaph
Damageplan – New Found Power
God Forbid – Gone Forever
Isis – Panopticon
Killswitch Engage – The End of Heartache
Slipknot – Vol. 3- The Subliminal Verses
Behemoth – Demigod
The Dillinger Escape Plan – Miss Machine
Wintersun – Wintersun
All of these albums are available for $10 or less on Amazon.com. Just click the album art to go to the Amazon buy page.
