Stand in Line is the first studio album by heavy metal band Impellitteri, released in 1988 through Relativity Records; a remastered edition was issued on May 19, 2009 through EMI Records, containing four bonus tracks which originally formed their 1987 EP Impellitteri. The album reached No. 91 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and remained on that chart for twenty weeks.
Whitney Z. Gomes at AllMusic gave Stand in Line four stars out of five, noting "Secret Lover", "Tonight I Fly", "Goodnight and Goodbye" and the title track as highlights. He mainly praised singer Graham Bonnet's vocals throughout the album, but heavily criticized the guitarist and bandleader Chris Impellitteri's cover versions of "Since You Been Gone" and "Over the Rainbow" as "excessive and useless", writing that they "almost [run] the record into the ground". Further criticism was directed at the album's mixing and production, but he concluded by saying, "When Stand in Line works, it rules."
