| 2009 has been a great year of music buying for me, but I agree it's been pretty slow as far as new stuff goes. Starting next month, there's TONS of albums coming I want though, so I have high hopes for the year overall.
I think these are the only 2009 releases I've bought so far this year. Here's how I'd rank'em:
1. Stryper - Murder By Pride 2. Johnny Lima - Livin' Out Loud 3. Heaven and Hell - The Devil You Know 4. Saxon - Into the Labyrinth 5. Great White - Rising 6. Wildstreet - s/t 7. Freakshow - s/t 8. Dream Theater - Black Clouds & Silver Linings 9. Judas Priest - A Touch of Evil: Live 10. Charm City Devils - Let's Rock-N-Roll 11. The Last Vegas - Whatever Gets You Off 12. Halestorm - s/t 13. Tim "Ripper" Owens - Play My Game 14. Duff McKagan's Loaded - Sick 15. Chickenfoot - s/t
It's a pretty close race for everyone in my Top 10, and I'm sure by the time I do a "Best of 2009" post at my blog, the preference order will have changed amongst them. | |

| Seems odd that Stryper is getting so much Love! ( I have never liked Michael Sweet though - his vocals are more suited for top 40 rock than heavy metal IMO) I bought the new album and it is OK - The Boston cover is the best song however IMO. Why so much Love? I am pretty sure mc666 will agree with me on this. | |

| Michael Sweet is one of my all time favorite clean singers. his voice is both melodic & powerful. i could hear him going top 40 radio rock, or something even heavier than Stryper. he's that good. _________________ | |

I stand corrected than MC, but I still think he sucks when it comes to singing metal, he is too whiny! That said I do have respect for him and what he has accomplished over the years and was deeply sorry to hear of his loss of his wife Kyle. Oddly enough he does sound surprisingly alot like Brad Delp. | |

Because it's good music. Yup. I'm not even a Stryper fan, that was my first Stryper album, but I took a chance just to try something new and I really liked it. I highly doubt it's going to place THAT high on my list after next month's releases though, but it's still really good. | |
