November 2, 2026: Hirax - Vigilante - Black Devil Records
"Hirax (often stylized as HIRAX) is an American thrash metal band from Cypress, California. Starting in 1984 under the leadership of vocalist Katon W. De Pena (the band's only original member left in the current line-up), the band played in Los Angeles and San Francisco with several of their thrash metal peers such as Metallica, Slayer and Exodus. The band was an early example of thrash metal, speed metal and crossover thrash, yet inspired by cross-genre influences including blues vocalist Sam Cooke, who De Pena once cited as 'the greatest vocalist [De Pena] has ever heard.'" -Wikipedia

November 2, 1967: Cream - Disraeli Gears - Reaction Records
Wikipedia shows:
Disraeli Gears is the second studio album by the British rock band Cream. It was produced by Felix Pappalardi and released on Reaction Records in 1967. The album features the singles "Strange Brew" and "Sunshine of Your Love". The original 11-track album was remastered in 1998, and then subsequently released as a two-disc Deluxe Edition in 2004.
Retrospectively, writing for the BBC, Chris Jones described the album as "a perfect encapsulation of the point where the blues got psychedelic and in turn got heavy". Classic Rock's Louder notes "it captured epic studio performances by Jack Bruce, Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker at the peak of their powers as a group" and "became a touchstone recording of the '60s counterculture." Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic describes the album as "a quintessential heavy rock album of the '60s" while Dave Swanson of Ultimate Classic Rock likewise believes the album to be their masterpiece.

Wikipedia shows:
Back for the Attack is the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Dokken, released on November 2, 1987, through Elektra Records. Back for the Attack was certified Gold and Platinum on January 14, 1988. The album sold about 1.5 million records worldwide. A remastered edition featuring a bonus track was reissued in 2009 through Warner Music Japan. It is the band's best-selling album, reaching No. 13 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and remaining on that chart for 33 weeks. Three singles also charted on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart: "Dream Warriors" reached No. 22, "Prisoner" at No. 37, and "Burning Like a Flame" at No. 20 as well as No. 72 on the Billboard Hot 100. The single "Dream Warriors" was originally released in February 10, 1987, as the theme song for the horror film A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. The album title for Back for the Attack was taken from an earlier Dokken song of the same name, recorded during the sessions for Under Lock and Key (1985) and released as the B-side to "Dream Warriors". It was later included in the 2009 remastered edition of the album as a bonus track.

November 2, 1999: Extol — Mesmerized [EP] - Endtime Productions
This EP is six songs. Tracks 1, 2 and 3 are progressive/technical extreme metal, and tracks 4, 5 and 6 are industrial remixes of specific tracks of their 1988 debut album Burial.
"Mesmerized is an EP by the Norwegian Christian metal band Extol and their second official release. It was released on Endtime Productions and Solid State Records. Steve Huey of AllMusic rated the EP three stars out of five, considering the release similar to the band's debut album and essentially a package for devoted fans. The Orlando Sentinel disliked the techno remixes on the EP but appreciated the rest of the music and considered the release all-together a 'decent disc'. Alex Cantwell of Chronicles of Chaos rate the EP 7.5 out of 10. The only reason for not rating higher was due to the industrial tracks, which they considered filler that took up space which could have been used for new Extol music. Nevertheless, they viewed the recording as essential for fans of the band and highly recommended for others." -Wikipedia

belated Tony MacAlpine guitar and singing anniversary
November 2, 1999: Tony MacAlpine — Master of Paradise - Shrapnel Records (Wikipedia date)
Master of Paradise is a unique album! Tony MacAlpine is known for his virtuoso guitar playing, riffs, solos, neoclassical shredding, and keyboard skills, but on this album, he sings, too! Backed by a rhythm section featuring bassist Larry Dennison and drummer Atma Anur (The Metal Archives notes that Atma Anur has played on some 150 albums), the record highlights MacAlpine's guitar variety through multi-style riffs and solos framed within a progressive heavy metal and hard rock style. Eight out of the ten tracks feature his vocals. I can't find any other Tony MacAlpine album on The Metal Archives where he sings. Unless I'm mistaken, if you've ever wanted to hear Tony sing, this is it! Your one and only chance. This album offers a rare look into an additional skill from the virtuoso himself. My goodness, just when you think you know someone ha ha!

RAMONES - "Havana Affair" - RAMONES trailblazing rock and roll discography
This is song number nine from the Ramones' debut studio album released on April 23, 1976 by Sire Records. This one is so catchy. The studio version is great, and I also like the live version from the 1977 London concert. It's such a perfect Ramones song, just the band thrashing their way through it in the most efficient, zero-time-wasting method. I really like how the chorus flows and how Joey makes it sound so fun. Try to sing it fast like he does and see what happens ha ha! Anyway, if you like the song, you've got to check the footage of the band tearing through this song live.

SAXON - "Stand Up and Be Counted"- SAXON heavy metal discography
According to The Metal Archives, April 3, 1980 is the release date for the second album Wheels of Steel by the British heavy metal band Saxon. This the second song on the album. The song begins with sounds a bit the opening riff of Motorhead's "No Class," which in turn is direct borrowing from ZZ Top's "Tush." Anyway, "Stand Up and Be Counted" features a street heavy metal vibe. It's such a good Saxon song.

MEGADETH anniversary - Blood in the Water: Live in San Diego on HDNet TV
Internet sources show that November 2, 2008 was the television premiere of the Megadeth concert special Blood in the Water: Live in San Diego on HDNet TV. Sources say that it was recorded May 20, 2008 during Gigantour. It looks like this was also sometimes called Waking up Dead. This show is available on YouTube, but it's not clear that it is available from an official Megadeth source on YouTube. The Metal Archives does not seem to have, for Megadeth, anything under the name of Blood in the Water nor Waking up Dead, if I am not mistaken.

This is song number eight from the Ramones' debut studio album released on April 23, 1976 by Sire Records. Simple, direct, minimalist and fun! "You're a loudmouth baby. You better shut up. I'm gonna beat you up. 'Cause you're a loudmouth babe." That's the entire lyrics!

November 1, 1994: Megadeth - Youthanasia - Capitol Records
"Youthanasia is the sixth studio album by American heavy metal band Megadeth, released on November 1, 1994, through Capitol Records. It is stylistically similar to their previous album, Countdown to Extinction (1992). The title is a play on words, implying that society is euthanizing its youth. The cover art features an elderly woman hanging babies by their feet on a seemingly endless clothes line, a direct reference to a line in the title track." -Wikipedia
