With their first album of all-original material since 1990's AGAINST THE LAW, Christian heavy metal band Stryper do more than drum up their glory days on 2005's REBORN. The intervening 15 years did little to diminish Stryper's attack: the band still thunders with both glitz and muscle, and lead singer Michael Sweet sounds as sharp as ever. Likewise, Stryper's commitment to their faith hasn't wavered an iota, as the messages on songs like "Passion" and the title track prove. In the midst of the many Christian metal bands inspired by Stryper's model, REBORN finds the fathers of the genre reasserting their worth.

Reborn Music Review Average Rating: (4.2 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews STRONG return
Stryper sounds heavier & well, grungier than ever which is a bit surpising, all things considered. However, I must say, the new Stryper album rocks with attitude and despite the black metal leanings I once hung onto so dearly back in the day, I now much prefer the positive sentiments relayed on this maturely written album. It just proves that a band can still cut it loose and kick your butt with wailing guitars and an explosive rhythm section yet instill a level of thoughfulness, maturity & introspection into the lyrics. I was pleasantly surpised to hear just how heavy this album is and well, for once, the album title says it all; Stryper has indeed been REBORN! Metalheads, you should give this one a listen.

Praise the Lord, the God Boys are Back kikin ass
This cd to sum it up is a work from god. People who dont like it just dont get it. It took a miracle from the lord to get the boys back together and tour, now he has worked more wonders and had the deciples release a new studio CD. Thank you lord for blessing my ears with such gracefull music. I love you and truly believe. God our father along with stryper, your the best. Please lord work one more miricle and have the men of god tour Australia?

Band bios are boring. They are useless pieces of clap-trap used by record companies to squeeze that last few dollars from the overtaxed wallets of ignorant pre-teens who haven’t figured out how to use limewire. They have a basic format that everyone follows and use big college words like emotive or contextual. They discuss how a band starts (duh! How does every band start? A couple people get together, play some music, if it is ok then they play a show. Sometimes they play a couple more.) I could see putting in the origins of the band if it was something like this: They met in rehab. Fuck yes! Remember that nu-metal band from Minneapolis whose big claim to fame was that they met in rehab? Best thing about them by a long shot, homey. Nathan the singer, rescued the band from prostitution and needed a positive direction for them so that they wouldn’t fall into old patterns. Nathan inherited them from a crazy uncle who first made him figure out some ancient riddle and fight ninjas to achieve his rightful destiny as Nathan, Leader of the Casting Out. Nathan is actually the Holy Grail descended from Jesus…uh, ok that is weird. So if a bands origins aren’t like that, I don’t give a fuck. Got it? So Nathan was in a band called BoySetsFire. They did ok, then they broke up. So the Casting Out started, first with some terrible name that (THANK GOD!) was already taken, played some shows, lost some members, got some members, changed their sound, (yeah I know…it “evolved”) It got louder. More raucous. More fun. More of that good stuff that keeps you coming back. Catchier than a plateful of syphalitic lepers. EW. They started touring in a crappy van that broke down. Of course they did. Who didn’t? Played to smatterings of people who began disinterested, but were slowly (so slowly!) run over by their dynamic stage show. But they are doing it the way you are supposed to. They are sleeping on floors. They are eating pasta. Playing freaking VFWs, Which is fine for all the retards out there with their first band who are just excited to get out of Arkansas, But Nathan is no spring chicken. He ain’t even a Winter Goose. He has been touring since he was 20 which was nearly two decades ago. When he started touring, gas was ninety cents a gallon. When he started touring, no-one had cell phones. We used this cracked out gadget called the “Straight Edge Dialer” which somehow imitated the sonic patterns of quarters dropping into the slot. We would gather around a pay-phone and use it to call home and try to get shows. When he started touring, there was no major-label debate because major-labels simply did not sign punk or hardcore bands. When he started touring the internet was a mere gleam in Al Gore’s nutsack. When he started touring, people bought cds. Yeah, I know... That long ago. So the question was posed as it has been ...
