For y'all who are old enough to remember. Wek wek wek. Stryper has a new album out. All new songs. No covers.
Who is stryper? A heavy metal band from the 80s. They were the first to get out into the mainstreet music scene - using explicitly Christian messages in their songs. Trademark: Yellow and Black spandex tights and throwing of Bibles onto the audience. They play very loud blistering rock that make most concerts nowadays sleepy.
Stryper paved the way, getting all the critics bad remarks, getting thunderbolts from "Christian" evangelists, admiration and disgust from both Rock Radio/MTV and Rock Magazines. Jars, Sixpence, Switchfoot and POD would not have it so easy today. And today isn't even easy on them too.
