1992 - The year heavy metal infected the world. Or at least that's  how  it appeared to us kids growing up in Southeast Texas. Grunge ruled the world, but as we watched Headbanger's Ball and scoured the various mags we could find at the department stores and gas stations, it became obvious that something incredible was taking place. Every corner of the globe seemed to have a scene,  or something that the writers in the metal mags could spin into an interesting story.

It took years for me to truly put into perspective how important 1992 actually was in the annals of extreme music. I turned 14 in November of that year so I certainly didn't have the best vantage point, however, it is the year, in hindsight, that broke my brain. Somehow, it continues to do so.
