THE GATES OF METAL AWARDS OF 2009

Hello readers! It was very difficult for me to choose this list, because for me 2009 was a great year for Metal and I really hope that 2010 give to us more amazing albums, Ep's, Demos and of course NEW BANDS! I am always with my eyes and ears open to what happened in the Metal world especial at my country (Portugal). Because of that I put some new categories...I decided to include: Metal photographers, designers, radios and of course webzines. I think is very important for people get recognized from their work and what they do to help the bands! So, I hope you guys like it and keep supporting metal bands!!! ;-)
