If we do the Torture Chamber next year, I think we're gonna have to change things up. Even if you hadn't opened your mind in the interim, this second time wouldn't have been as special anyway. There are only so many subgenres to assault you with before this just becomes a redundant exercise. I could have thrown any number of brutal death metal, harsh black metal, grindcore, etc albums at you that may very well have been offensive to you than the first two albums this year, but that would have been boring to me. The next two albums should do the trick, though. There's simply no way you'll be able to enjoy Anaal Nathrakh.
Maybe instead of a Metal Month thing, this can be a regular, monthly feature on your journal where you have to review one album of any genre. I'm never gonna be able to top Merzbow with a metal album, but you're missing out on suffering through Metal Machine Music, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, Diamanda Galas, that weird vocal album I did in my avant garde thread, and god knows what else.
