Best Album you have bought this year so far???

[JamesHealey]

I'd say the album im happiest with this year so far would be

Andy Timmons - Resolution

Can't turn the thing off, It took a few listens to get used to but now im in love..

[Twinfan]

Best one I've bought?  AC/DC - Back in Black.  Or Rammstein - Mutter.  Loving them both at the moment!

I haven't bought any "new" music this year!

[Davey]

savatage - streets

[dave_mc]

^ :o

I bought the edge of thorns savatage one, and it's a strong contender, though to be fair, I haven't bought much new music this year (EDIT: and by new music, I mean new CD's for me, not music released this year, lol). The other contender would probably be the best of kings x, though tr00 music fans probably don't count that as an album...

 :(

[Muttley]

Nevermore - This Godless Endeavour

Fantastic Album.

Muttley

[CaffeineJunkie]

Dirty Pretty Things - Waterloo to Anywhere

great album

[Davey]

i honestly dont know what i bought this year or what i bought last year. because it's all a big blur

i know about streets cos .. well, you just cant forget it :D


though right now i'm looking for a store that will get a significant portion of my paycheck as i want to buy the whole opeth and nevermore discography (minus the most recent albums)

[TwilightOdyssey]

Contenders for the best of 2006 so far:

Nocturnal Rites, Grand Illusion
Cellador, Enter Deception
Joe Satriani, Super Colossal
Coheed & Cambria, Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV

With new albums coming out by Iron Maiden, Blind Guardian and Marty Friedman, 06 is shaping up to a great year thus far!

I haven't heard anything much this year that I'd want to buy.  Willo recommended a guy called Marc Ribot who was actually pretty good, though I wasn't really in the mood for that kinda music then.  I'll prolly check him out again another time and see if my tastes have changed.

I borrowed All of Our Names by Sarah Harmer today and it's ok, but I don't think I'll buy it.

I did download an album by a guy called Thomas Blug who is really worth listening to.  You can see some clips of him on youtube.com, too.  Kinda Satriani meets SRV sound.  And he has my ideal setup: vintage Strat into a H&K Triamp.

[38thBeatle]

I have not bought much new stuff-only old albums that caught my eye and things I used to have but have lost (Bob Dylan, SRV, T Bone Walker etc) though I did buy an album by my old mate Mac (Ian Mclagan) of Ronnie Lane songs which was nice cos Mr Lane was an unsung hero of mine.

[Muso]

Stevie Nicks - Rooms on Fire

Has anything decent been released this year? seems like same old same old to me.

saw a video of him in last month's Guitarist

the keyboard player got on my nerves :|

[Kilby]

For new music it would be the

Flaming Lips, At war with the mystics

For re-purchased it

The Church, Of skin and Heart or Blurred Crusade (reminds me of being 18)

Rob...

[Sifu Ben]

Avenged Sevenfold, City of Evil. Since they stopped screaming they've become my perfect band. I've got it in the car and I wish my journeys were longer  :o

[Jonesy]

Rory Gallagher - Live in Europe.....absolute energy :P
