A little over one year ago, we celebrated the 15th anniversary of Metal Injection. It's crazy to think it was one of the last big gatherings we were a part of, as the pandemic took live shows from us in 2020. As we wind down the 16th year in the site's history, we thought it would be fun to take a step back and look at the big ole bash we threw last year.
Our friends at Diary of Doom shared a new gallery of photos to reflect on the evening, which included members of Testament, Type O Negative, Revocation, Silvertomb, Cave In, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Artificial Brain, Mrs. Smith, Candiria and many more, as well as incredible sets by Cougrrr, Witch Taint and Cloud Rat!
