Episode 63: Album Of The Year Edition!
from The Distorted Dialogue Podcast · host Metal Institute of Thrashology
🎧On Episode 63, The YEAR END BONUS EDITION, where I rank the top metal albums of this past year, and even give a few honorable mentions too. 2025 was an absolute amazing year for metal releases. Whether it was thrash metal, death metal, doom and even country metal, almost every subgenera have an album on here. As you can see, I went and interviewed a lot of the artists of these albums, as I always need to know more. I hope you enjoy these albums as much as did, this past year. And with so many releases happening and the standard of quality is sky high, what were your favorite albums? What did I miss? What did I get wrong and what did I get right? Let me know in the comments below. ‼️I would like to give a special shoutout to all of the labels, bands, PR, and other content creators who have helped me over the last year. But most importantly, I would like to THANK YOU! The viewers, the listeners, the fans, who all have supported not only me, but metal music in general. So thanks for hanging out, and here's to an even heavier 2026‼️Welcome to Distorted Dialogue, the official podcast of The Metal Institute of Thrashology. Where I interview each guest, getting to the bottom of what you want to know. Wether it’s a Headlining Act from the other side of the world or a thrash band next to a river, I am always searching for the next riff, album or tour, and this is where to find out about it. Discussing topics such as new albums, inspirations, concerts, crazy road stories and wherever else the conversation takes us. Don’t think of this as a rapid fire, monotone filler, but rather a conversation where we can all learn about albums, tours and more, while laughing along the way Some keep coming back, so find out why! I don’t just interview musicians, but techs, label executives, industry attorneys and anything else that is metal as hell. Why limit the fun?
