2007 = MY Year of Metal!!

Looking at some of the other lists on here, my 2007 new releases have been few and far between, (only 6 or 7). However, if I look back on ALL of my music purchases made in 2007 (both new & old), it's quite substantial. And I thought I was cutting back.

I feel that the first decade of 2000 has turned out to be a great time for metal and it isn't going to end soon.
