I’m really happy to see that you all seem to like this one👊 Much love and respect and it’s always for you🙏 Can’t wait for you to hear the entire album!! Michael Sweet
There's not a single 80's hair band today that can match Stryper in terms of quality output after all these years. I mean, they just keep ascending, not resting on past successes, and have not only kept their sound, but have dramatically improved it, rather than degrading like so many other 80's bands. They are truly in a class by themselves now, and deserve a place in the Rock and Roll HOF along with the Heavy Metal HOF induction.
As long as God can use him to spread the word, & he is surrendered to the Lord's will in his life, Michael will be able to belt out those screams. It is amazing. It is God!!!!
@@novrahadi8568 That's right. While a lot of the other bands of the 80s indulged in drugs and alcohol, Stryper made a point to stay clear of that lifestyle. There were some other artists and bands that chose to not get involved with the party part of the industry.
I hope it's legit and not auto tune. I can accept aging singers losing their range, but I struggle with vocalists who lie to me by using studio software to adjust their vocal capabilities and presenting it as something its not. Lots of that going on in all genres these days.
I've always loved metal. I am a new Christian, I was baptized about a month ago. This was the first Stryper song I listened to. This music has changed my life completely. The energy, combined with the scripture (Isaiah 53:5) they have chosen as their motto, has helped me truly understand the suffering Jesus went to as he sacrificed himself for us. Before this, I still struggled with truly putting my faith in Jesus as I am a scientifically/analytically oriented person. But the energy of this music me helped me truly understand his pain and suffering, ultimately leading to me repenting, giving myself up and offering myself as a loyal servant to our lord and savior, and praying in tongues for the first time. Those high pitched multi-octave screams (0:15) shake me to the very core of my soul. This level of energy, in the purpose of exalting Jesus Christ, is a harmonic composition which in tandem with the word of God leads to the plasmification and deliverance of my soul. Unique, exceptional, wonderful. Thank you Stryper. Thank you Michael Sweet. God bless you all.
Fucking Hell! I Love Stryper since the 80's and they are a reason why I' m a Guitarist since 30 Years..but they are not getting older, they' re getting fucking more and more Iconic 🙏🤘🏻
To be honest this is the first song I've listened to by them. Better late to the party I guess but I'm glad I gave this a chance I've got a lot of songs to research and listen to now.
Almost 40 years and I can't think of another band that can has a singer like this, and plays so tight. Amazing, God given talent that they didn't abuse.
Michael Sweet is still belting out the Lords word at the highest of pitches and Robert Sweet is still calling down the Lords thunder! And Oz Fox is there too. He's doing something. I'm kidding I LOVE OZ FOX TOO!!!
Just took my 15 year old to house of blues San Diego and so happy Stryper played this rockin’ gem !! If you have a chance to go see Stryper , I highly recommend you going and supporting them - great show Stryper on 06/04/23 😇😇😇👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
for all the "transgressors" of the world that INSIST on doing the right thing, despite all odds... our adrenaline release comes from the challenge 🤘🤘🙏everyday is a battle of light against darkness
I have a friend that passed away 16 years ago. I was 19. He was a big part of what kept me from getting into too much trouble, as he was a Christian. He kept me accountable in my walk with Christ. He introduced me to Stryper. This just made me think of him. So many fun times. This song is gnarly!! Absolutely love it!! God is good all the time!!!
This is the best modern music video Stryper have ever done, and it may just be tied for best of their whole career. The costumes are perfect, the dueling solos with Oz taking the 2nd half is perfect. The presentation of the solo with Mike and Oz on opposite sets of stairs is visual genius. Raw power in this one, and the extra screams are a treat even if I can't figure out how Michael is doing them in 2022. Other bands need to watch & learn.
I was raised in the 80's and have always heard of Stryper, but never gave a listen. I began to listen out of curiosity and WOW! I LOVE STRYPER. What amazing talent.
Stryper has been around since 1983 but the very peak of their career began in 2013 with "No More Hell To Pay" and has continued ever since. I strongly suggest listening to all albums from 2013 forward. They are better than the 80s
@@benireges I bought and preordered their new album. I will need to hit used record stores for their older material. I started listening to their other albums through Spotify though. So far I am enjoying their previous releases.
This is absolutely UNBELIEVABLE!!! Man you guys just get better with age! This is one of my all time favorite songs from you guys! Thank you for carrying the torch, for metal AND the message.
Robert Sweet here reminds me of a Petra interview where, I think their keyboard player said of their Drummer Louie weaver, " I don't know man, when YOU BEAT ON THINGS FOR A LIVING!!! That's gotta do something to ya!" Lol, keep going guys, glad to see you still Rocking for the Lord all these years later. Heaven is going to be a blast for sure!!
Robert played drums for years with a dislocated shoulder and was only partially aware that "something wasn't quite right". He recently sought about medical attention for it and that's when he found out what was going on.
Unbelievable... A band from the 80's decades later and they are still ROCKING, I mean they're killing it. The Vocals, the sound has gotten so much better. After all these years there just amazing.
Just came across them on a live feed a few minutes ago amazing I am today old hearing of them I don't really care too much for rock and roll music but that Jesus music hit different these guys are amazing!..
Stryper has been killing it most of their career but it impresses me how much heavier and harder they have gotten in the last 15 years without losing values or quality, Michael's voice is amazing 😎🤘♥️🔥👏 always a fan.
Yes Michael and team...great song here....im 50 and a fan since 15. Im on the edge of the edge now...and needed to hear this...and to remind of the message. Pray for me. Thanks guys.
My first Stryper cassette was To Hell with the Devil. In fact that was my very first cassette ever purchased. I was 10 and used my allowance to get it.
I remember reading an article decades ago where Michael said "we're not a Christian rock band, we're a rock band that happens to be Christians". This song really brings that statement into the light!! What a great jam!!
Holy smokes! Stryper is one of those rare bands that are consistently great across time and space. Michael's vocals are distinctive and strong as ever, great songwriting and a tight outfit as always. I love being a Stryper fan!
Man... still shredding after all these years and that voice. nothing like it in all of metal. I joined a Christian metal/rock group a couple weeks ago and found out Stryper was still very much active. Last cd I had bought was "In God We Trust" but this band was a HUGE influence on my earlier Christian walk. Amazing.
Gotta say....I am impressed. This may be the best they ever sounded. Those guitar and bass tones are just cutting edge hard. Drums are blazing. Vocals...well they speak for themselves
Wow! How many 80's metal bands are putting out new material? Stryper is still progressing, while staying true to the hair metal genere, and kicking total ass! Sweets voice is amazing! It's almost gotten better with age.
Are from the early 80's AND STILL WRITING NEW MUSIC!!! HOW MIRACULOUS IS THAT?! Looking for a miracle look at STRYPER! And if this had been written in 1984 EVERYBODY BACK THEN WOULD'VE ACCEPTED IT AS TRUE 80's metal, They haven't betrayed their original 80's sound AT ALL, vocally or any other way, fabulous and globally unique!
Along with several other posts - I just have to agree - Stryper has not only KEPT their metal edge and great rock sound...they have steadily IMPROVED over the years...this is simply AMAZING to behold - God has truly blessed these guys !!!!!
Visually stunning, lyrics are pure fire, guitars bass & drums are thunderous, and the vocals/screams are jaw dropping!! Standing ovation for the legendary Christian rockers, STRYPER!!
I haven't been listening to Stryper in-depth since about the Fallen era. Not like I DISLIKED those albums or anything, I was just listening to different stuff at that point. However, I gave this album a listen after it came out and BRO, easily a top 3 Stryper album of all time for me! I really felt like y'all peaked at NMHTP, which was previously my favorite (followed closely by THWTD), but this is so good that it may be my favorite, I'm not sure. In general, it has such an energy to it that you guys haven't had since the 80s and every single song was just super solid!
Damn ! This is NOT the Stryper of my youth..... this sounds dirty, raw and heavy af ! And Michael, how is it your voice sounds stronger and better than ever?! This song is the very definition of powerful .!
@Grant Stander The current lineup is 3/4 the Stryper of old as they replaced Tim Gaines with Perry Richardson after Tim's departure in 2017. Michael Sweet (lead vocals and rhythm/lead guitar), Robert Sweet (drums) and Oz Fox (rhythm/lead guitar) are, still, in the band to this day.
OMG what a track!!!!!!!!! That’s a top 10 all time for stryper songs I believe. Unique song structure..I’m feeling the various elements and those vokills!! I gotta hear it again.
The vocals are insane. Then again, I get it. I'm not religious, but I do believe in a higher power and what you think about you bring about. I believe this band has always envisioned themselves to be bigger and better and not let the demons of the world succumb them. They take care of themselves. Aside from Against The Law (a record I felt strayed from their message), they're probably one of the few and I mean a fist full of bands that have progressed in their writing, gotten heavier and more beautiful as a band. Again, I am not Christian, HOWEVER, I will always LOVE Stryper because they're a positive band that kicks any other 80's bands ass!
One of the best ever guitar duos (Oz & Michael) just seem to get better with age! Robert is still killing it! Perry brings a massive low end rhythm section boost to everything - might be a huge part of what has made the PR era Stryper albums and live recordings awesome-er!
I remember reading articles about Stryper in the 80s. It was saturated and I though oh no, another one. These ones are yellow though. I didn't bother listening. I was wrong. This is excellent.
VOICE! 🤯Insane! Most iconic voices are getting slowly worse with age, but Michael's is pristine! Ya'll are a powerhouse. Riffs, solos, swagger, energy, look, vocals... don't stop doing what you do, Stryper. You are KILLING it! 😎💯
It's like the 80's never ended and the 16 year old me never grew up. The only front man in the world who's voice has NEVER degraded with age. Michael, you are truly blessed with miracle vocals! LOVE IT! 😍
the duel of guitars 👏👏 the voice, the drums, the bass all amazing. and something very important the yellow and black stripes!!! that's the stryper stamp👏
STRYPER was my very first concert EVER. The year was 1986 and it was the To Hell With The Devil tour. I was only 15. To hear them still going even stronger 36 years later is just amazing to me. Wish I could've met y'all. Keep up the great music!
I believe To Hell with the Devil was their breakout album. The track "Honestly" made it on not only Christian charts but also made it on the mainstream charts. After that, the rest is music history.

Much love from Croatia Stryper maniac. God bless
Michael I'd love to see the lyrics and you guys are on que for Christ as always C'YA in Mercedes Texas 🙏
Bands usually chill out when they get older. Stryper is getting heavier. Total insanity. Yellow and black attack
Not a single band today can match the awesomeness of STRYPER...
They STRYPER are still really ROCKING for the Rock that is Jesus Christ!!
That heavy chugging breakdown with those guitars shredding and bass laying down earthquakes that register on the Richter scale!
There's not a single 80's hair band today that can match Stryper in terms of quality output after all these years. I mean, they just keep ascending, not resting on past successes, and have not only kept their sound, but have dramatically improved it, rather than degrading like so many other 80's bands.

Yes, but sincerely I miss what Stryper do the BEST... Melodic hard rock. 🤷🏼♂️
Helloween says hello.
Seriously!! Their last 4 albums have been bangers! Im quite certain that the new one will be just as good.
@@DemonhunterPaul Really??!! 🤣🤣🤣.
The music itself is really good but my God, the vocals kill it. Reminds me too much of power metal crap. To each is there own.
Stryper sounds better than ever! Michael's vocals.....bro....that 15 second scream was legit!
Tremendo temon !!!!!!
Like Tate in Queen Of The Reich 40 years ago - wow!
They really do. Sweet at 59, his vocals and stage presence is amazing!
king diamond is proud haha
That screams solidifies him as the best power metal vocalist of his generation, hands down
Stryper at their best, Jesus Christ bless. Amen
Saw these guys in high school and I'm 51 now! They are STILL rockin' in it out for the Lord! WoW!!!
So good to see Oz doing what he does.
Just. Wow! Stryper is like wine and cement - they get better and harder as time goes by! The music is jammin' but THAT VOICE! What a gift from God!
Great way to compare them. Wine and cement. Awesome.
Met them a few times! Been a fan from day one! Outstanding guys! I’m a professional musician & these guys just have never not blown my mind!
That voice. All that was missing was a mix drop and a walk off stage... Great song.
Top 🤩🔥♥️🇨🇵🤘
Dare I say it, Michael out-Halfords Rob Halford on this tune. Those high note are insane!
And Robert Sweet, he doesn't fully get his dues in my opinion. He is absolutely one of the best drummers in the world.
The fact that Michael Sweet can still belt out those screams like that after all these years is absolutely amazing.
As long as God can use him to spread the word, & he is surrendered to the Lord's will in his life, Michael will be able to belt out those screams. It is amazing. It is God!!!!
While other singers were smoking, drinking, and partying, he was praising Jesus Christ. No wonder his voice has held up.
Yep
He never drinks, nor drugs.
@@novrahadi8568 That's right. While a lot of the other bands of the 80s indulged in drugs and alcohol, Stryper made a point to stay clear of that lifestyle. There were some other artists and bands that chose to not get involved with the party part of the industry.
It does my heart GOOD to see Oz back like he never missed a beat. ALL PRAISE TO YOU JESUS CHRIST!!!
Crazy that Michael's voice has held up this well for this long...what a blessing to be able to still praise God with a beautiful voice !!
All that clean livin'!
@@gun_toting_lefty that’s exactly the reason
The Christian guys weren't doing drugs!

@@growingfromscratch8517 true, but he sounds great live. not that you cant use autotune live, but he is legit
Man, Michael's vocals are just as epic now as they were 35 years ago! That scream is the ultimate.
👊💪
Yeah, sounds just as he did on Soldiers album in '85.

Welcome brother! Jesus Christ our Lord be praised!
Listen to the " to hell with the devil" full album by STRYPER
Good on ya mate!✝️👍💯
Enjoy their catalogue bro!
No autotune here, kids. Take notes! This is how its done!
Amen, pardon the pun...sort of lol! 👍
Fucking Hell! I Love Stryper since the 80's and they are a reason why I' m a Guitarist since 30 Years..but they are not getting older, they' re getting fucking more and more Iconic 🙏🤘🏻
I'm amazed this doesn't have millions of views. Great song, great band,, great message.
Wow!!!!!!! Killer song and killer video. What metal band gets heavier as it gets older? Stryper does!
Saxon does 🤘😁 just saying, but you're correct their last 4 records have been fantastic imo and heavy as heck! 👍🤘🎸 cheers🍻
I agree with you Doug Van Pelt about Stryper getting better with age, like a fine wine.
Pantera...did
🤘🏻😝🤘🏻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
Saxon, Stryper and Volbeat 🤘🤘💯💯👌🏿👌🏿
To be honest this is the first song I've listened to by them. Better late to the party I guess but I'm glad I gave this a chance I've got a lot of songs to research and listen to now.
Check out their older album _To Hell with the Devil_ or the album _Fallen_ ... those are two of my faves :)
Their best song is imho...
THE WAY
Okay but let’s give Robert some appreciation
I mean the man has still got it
Never misses a beat!! Yessssss
YES! He tears those drums UP!
100 %
He is the "visual timekeeper"!
This should have gotten the Grammy for Metal Performance of the Year.
Amazing just amazing!!!..
Only Jesus saves.
These guys are like wine. As they get older, the band gets more spectacular. What voice!!!
Almost 40 years and I can't think of another band that can has a singer like this, and plays so tight. Amazing, God given talent that they didn't abuse.
This is probably their heaviest song ever. Stellar everything.
Damn this song is impressive. The fact they can still get that 80s metal sound and Sweet can belt out those highs. Wow man
Michael Sweet is still belting out the Lords word at the highest of pitches and Robert Sweet is still calling down the Lords thunder! And Oz Fox is there too. He's doing something. I'm kidding I LOVE OZ FOX TOO!!!
Perry Richardson is my favorite bass player. Have firehouse's live in Japan CD, he is awesome.
That's real heavy metal. Looks like Robert is hitting his drums so hard that he's trying to destroy them 🤟
Just took my 15 year old to house of blues San Diego and so happy Stryper played this rockin’ gem !! If you have a chance to go see Stryper , I highly recommend you going and supporting them - great show Stryper on 06/04/23 😇😇😇👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
This is insane. How can you be rocking harder than 30 years ago?

for all the "transgressors" of the world that INSIST on doing the right thing, despite all odds... our adrenaline release comes from the challenge 🤘🤘🙏everyday is a battle of light against darkness
WOW, Stryper doesn't disappoint. They keep the classic elements and keep adding new elements
Right?!
It never gets stale EVER!

Michael has always had one of the best voices in metal.
The drumming is pushing the whole song forward !! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Get on the bus y’all

I remember reading articles about Stryper in the 80s. It was saturated and I though oh no, another one. These ones are yellow though. I didn't bother listening.
I was wrong. This is excellent.
Stryper has a unique sound like Judas Priest both have an identifying trademark sound. I love both so much.
That scream at the start had me…hook, line & sinker.. What a song. The album is going blow minds
VOICE! 🤯Insane! Most iconic voices are getting slowly worse with age, but Michael's is pristine! Ya'll are a powerhouse. Riffs, solos, swagger, energy, look, vocals... don't stop doing what you do, Stryper. You are KILLING it! 😎💯
Man, Michael can still hit the high note and he and Oz shred tasty solos w/o over doing it or over playing it, awesome 🤘🤘🤘
SOS SATANICO VOS? PUES PUSISTES ESAS MANOS CON GUAMPAS SIMBOLO DE ADORACIÓN AL DIABLO POR SI NO SABES. ANDÁ ARREPENTIRTE
Haven't heard anything from stryper since the 80s. Very impressive
You can clearly hear he has a healthy singing style and that helped him to keep his voice at that age. Really great job on the vocals.
It's like the 80's never ended and the 16 year old me never grew up. The only front man in the world who's voice has NEVER degraded with age. Michael, you are truly blessed with miracle vocals! LOVE IT! 😍
This...is impressive! This one song sheds the glam skin and now they sound like Priest? I want more of this
the duel of guitars 👏👏 the voice, the drums, the bass all amazing. and something very important the yellow and black stripes!!! that's the stryper stamp👏
Stryper is defining metal. and has been. R&R hall of fame in my heart ❤️ always
Amazing performance !!!!!!!! I LOVE STRYPER ❤
STRYPER was my very first concert EVER. The year was 1986 and it was the To Hell With The Devil tour. I was only 15. To hear them still going even stronger 36 years later is just amazing to me. Wish I could've met y'all. Keep up the great music!
I believe To Hell with the Devil was their breakout album. The track "Honestly" made it on not only Christian charts but also made it on the mainstream charts. After that, the rest is music history.
