The album has been getting great reviews with Hard Rock Haven stating, "For those who have lost faith that any new music could touch your heart and soul and inspire you, Sweet gives us hope by penning new songs to complement our daily lives" and Christian Music Review raving, "There is so much to love about this album. . ." Self-produced, I'm Not Your Suicide includes special appearances by Tony Harnell (TNT), Kevin Max (dcTalk, Audio Adrenaline), Chris Jericho (Fozzy), Doug Aldrich (Whitesnake), Electra Mustaine (daughter of Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine) and Stryper bandmates Robert Sweet and Timothy Gaines.

The book has also been getting critical acclaim with the Front Row Report recently proclaiming, "any longtime fan of Stryper and Michael Sweet will leave the experience with every question they've ever had answered in complete detail and will have a greater appreciation of the band and the man behind the band."

Michael Sweet is also premiering a new music video for the cover of his version of the Neil Young classic "Heart Of Gold." The video and song also features Electra Mustaine sharing vocal duties with Michael. The video is seeing a dual premiere today with UltimateClassicRock and NewReleaseTuesday simultaneously.
