STRYPER

"When We Were Kings” has it all - everything expected from Stryper and then some. From songs like “End of Days” (which showcases their heavy side) to the title track (which has a groove like no other) to the deep and dark ballad “Betrayed By Love” to the classic meets modern vibe of “Loves Symphony” to the classic pop sense of “Grateful” - the album offers a variety of flavors yet a unique familiarity. Sonically speaking the band's singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer, Michael Sweet, along with Danny Bernini, employed some very unique recording techniques to make the guitars sound huge. And huge they are! During the writing process, it was very important to incorporate choruses that are memorable, melodic, and a bit of a throwback to the past while keeping a few modern-day twists and turns along the way.

Everything came together perfectly, and everyone delivered on a whole new level. There truly is something very special about this one.


The band is also working on a Kickstarter-funded documentary film directed by Chris Atkins. With career album sales exceeding 10 million worldwide and a history of Billboard Top 40 hits, STRYPER continues to record, tour, and perform for devoted fans globally. The current lineup includes original members; Michael Sweet, Robert Sweet, and Oz Fox, along with bassist Perry Richardson, as they create what they consider their finest and most powerful music yet.

FANTASTIC!!

Loved it!! It rocks!! The title tune has a sound and guitar riff like Holy Soldier and Recon. They don't have an album that I dislike. I have them all and a few of Michaels' solos. Oz Foxs' band way back in 98 Sin Dizzy. !!!

Stryper continues to set a standard that cannot be matched!!! This band has been pumping out new music every two years that gets better every release. This new album just goes to another level. It’s got a remarkable feel to it. From the heavy verse to the light chorus. The song structure is better than ever. That’s what makes this release so incredible. It still has the razor sharp guitars. Fantastic twin guitars. A drummer that so quietly gets better by the song. Super solid back end. These songs are built by musicians that really have a deep love for their craft. Stryper are easily the best from the eighties. They have stood the test of time but it’s their ability and work ethic to bring new music to the table every two years that keeps them on top. This band is amazing. This new album is off the charts incredible. It’s a must buy album
Cannot be more thankful for this band
