If you liked them before, you have to check it out! If you thought they sounded too wimpy in the 80s, you have to check them out. Michael Sweet is probably the most powerful vocalist around and him and Oz Fox can definitely still shred! Stryper - Fallen... Check it out Here's my favorite song on the album, it's called "Yahweh".

No way! Somewhere I'm sure my brother still has his " soldiers under command " cassette.
I remember the tones on that album as having an impossibly scooped midrange. Like a notch filter.
Good times, good band.

Holy Smokes!
I've gotta share this on FB. Surprised by the tightness and high-energy for their, uhem - age! :-) Maybe they could be more relevant today than they were way back when. It feels like a metal wind is blowing of late.
Fun stuff. Eddie

I mowed the heck out of my yard to Stryper as a young lad....rocking the Walkman on the John Deer in the Olklahoma summers of yore. Not doing the metal much .... But when I do I might take Iron Maiden as my metal representative. Great sounding tune...

I'm afraid they fell into my "new music" boycott era.....pretty much crawled back into the 60's music for a decade or two there.... Still not really my "cup-o-tea," but I DO REALLY appreciate their talent....TIGHT BAND!!!!!
