I actually think this is one of their better album covers, but yeah, it's time to switch up the design next time around.

The last three have all been great, but the colour scheme is very reminiscent of a similar trend in the Battlefield video game box art.

It's not that I didn't like the last 3 discs...... they just all seem to be the same album released 3 times. A bit samey.

And with all the output from Michael Sweet lately and his douchebag behavior has really turned me off.

Yep,

Also agree the songs all sound the same.

I lump them in with Maiden who continue to do what worked a long time ago, but are missing a lot of hooks and melodies.

I'll probably cop shit for that from Styrper and Maiden fans I guess.

Disclaimer - massive Maiden fan until Fear Of The Dark and Stryper to Believe on the greatest hits album.
After that I cn only pluck a few keepers from each band :(

First single shows the holy bumblebees are sticking to the metallic end of the spectrum this time around. Sweet has promised this will be a "metal" album. Not a bad song, but I'm hoping for better.

New lyric video for 'Blood From Above'.

Samples up on iTunes. Won't convert any non-believers (lame pun fully intended) but the Stryper faithful should be happy enough.

Checked out the samples, sounds just like the last 3 albums. If you like those, you'll like this.

Don't really honestly feel like checking this out. Up through against the law is great, but not really after that. Also, I can't stop laughing at "the holy bumblebees" 🤣 You sound like my sister when you say that

New song ("Make Love Great Again") is OK in a filler sort of way and will probably go down fine with the Stryper faithful, but it's certainly not good enough to convert any nonbelievers (kinda-sorta pun fully intended).

Usually I eventually get to a Stryper disc and pick up a few good songs.
hopefully when I can be botehred with this there are a few on it.

Second song far better than the first, but agree with the sentiment in this thread. A lot of recycled material in recent times, but still worth a listen for the occasional keeper tune.

I don't know what you all are going on about.

This sounds right in line with anything they did back in 88' and if it was 1988 you'd all be jizzing all over each other for it.

The first and last song are my fave's of the lot thus far and the video is nice. Good to see they all, minus Gaines of course who's mia, are looking the part still.

 

And Geoff. C'mon broseph, "recycled"? Isn't that the point? Adhering to the recipe? We all rant about bands going off script, here the Stryper guys are doing TO Hell w/The Devil 2.0 and your squawking about it?

 

All that said will I be online to buy it straight away, no. That's not me anymore, but I liked it enough.

    • Jeez this dude seemed to be releasing music once a fortnight not too long ago, but it's been some space between, ay?  This is actually a surprisingly good, big catchy melodic rocker. Didn't expect it - nice stuff. 
    • And in the most unsurprising news ever, it's awesome. Love it completely.  And is it mentioned elsewhere that this coincides with the release of a new EP called 'Hope?' https://lebrock.bandcamp.com/album/hope?from=fanpub_nfb
    • Album out March 31. From Lions Pride Music: Stellar Veil is a melodic hard rock band hailing from Athens, Greece. Formed in 2021 by members departing from the Melodic Hard Rock band Hideaway, the group sought to carve a niche that melded the heavier elements of hard rock with the melodic finesse of classic AOR. Their sound is described as heavier than traditional AOR yet more melodic than classic metal (Melodic Hard & Heavy), reflecting a unique blend of influences from the 80s hard rock and heavy metal era with a contemporary twist. Stellar Veil’s music captures the nostalgic essence of 80s hard rock and heavy metal, yet it is infused with a modern approach. Their compositions are characterized by soaring vocals, melodic guitar riffs, and dynamic keyboard arrangements, balanced with a heavier rock attitude. The band aims to offer listeners a blend of the old and new, bridging the gap between the timeless appeal of classic rock and the fresh sounds of contemporary hard rock. With their distinctive blend of melodic and hard-hitting sounds, Stellar Veil is carving out a unique identity in the world of hard rock. Their music is a testament to their passion for rock and their commitment to evolving as artists, making them a band to watch in the coming years. Stellar Veil is: Jon Soti: Vocals  Dimitris Paloudis: Guitars John Kontos: Bass Peter Papadimatos: Keys Harris Freeman: Drums Track list: 1. Safely Chained 2. To Mend A Broken Heart 3. Diamonds To Dust 4. Feel The Pain 5. A Thousand And One Nights 6. Sign Of Times 7. Cross The Line 8. Calling The World 9. Final Stand    
    • New song 'Sanctimonarium'. "The Empyrean Equation Of The Long Lost Things" Tracklist: 1. The Empyrean Equation Of The Long Lost Things 2. My Icarian Flight 3. Sanctimonarium 4. The Sacrilegious Mind Machine 5. They Call Me God 6. March Of The Saints Line Up: Andy Kuntz – Vocals Stephan Lill – Guitars Andreas Lill – Drums Alessandro Del Vecchio – Keyboards Torsten Reichert - Bass        
    • Cool interview with their lead singer, John Cooper. Bit of a surprise to see this one come up today. I enjoy Zuby's content and have been a subscriber of his channel since around 2020 in my efforts to comfort myself in the fact that I wasn't the only one in the world being completely twilight zoned by covid. But I've found him to be a level-headed, logical dude and apart from being a massive christian (like all the rest of them, lol), I find sense in a lot of what he says.  And I found out along the way that this dude from Skillet (apart, again, from being a massive christian, lol), is like-minded and actually a real stand up dude.  Funny how musically speaking, I'd take Skid Row's music ten days and fifteen back around over Skillet's, but as a human being, I have zero respect for Bach and all the respect in the world for this dude. Anyway, interesting interview and it even touches on Skillet's music more than I thought it would. As for the new album, it's Skillet, again. 100% up and down, just, Skillet.     
    • New song 'Ricochet'. From Pride & Joy Music: "Ricochet" is the first single from Mikael Erlandsson's (Autumn's Child) solo album "The Second 1" which will be released world-wide (excl. Japan) on January 24th, 2025 via Pride & Joy Music! Mikael Erlandsson has spanned a long career in the music business and today is a household name when it comes to quality Melodic Rock. Erlandsson was the frontman of the super group Secret Service for 12 years singing their smash hits ”Oh Susie” and ”10 o’clock Postman“ in packed arenas all over the world. The world class singer also released albums with Phenomena, Radioactive, Sapphire Eyes, Heartbreak Radio, Salute, Love Under Cover amongst others but is best known for his work with his own bands ”Last Autumns Dream” (14 albums) and ”Autumn’s Child” (5 albums so far). Autumn’s Child will return with a new release in 2026. Additionally to this, Erlandsson also appeared at the Eurovision Song Contest finals for Sweden, Poland, Denmark and Latvia. The Swedish artist has had a successful solo career as well, which started started with his smash debut album ”The 1”in 1994 that sold enormous copies over the world. Erlandsson to this day released 6 solo albums and now returns with a new one entitled ”The Second 1”. The title is of course aspiring to the fact that it is exactly 30 years since his first soloalbum ”The 1”. Therefore the Swede recorded the real follow-up to his first solo album in the same feel of ”The 1” capturing his own unique style of songwriting. This time, he teamed up with producer Mats M.P. Persson (Roxette) for the mixing & mastering – just as it was for his solo debut 30 years ago! Keyboards & all vocals - Mikael Erlandsson Guitars - Rasmus Ehrnborn & Mikael Erlandsson  Drums - Richard Johnsson Bass - Mats Mp Persson & Martin Olsson
