Stryper can hold their own on any stage with any band. They are that talented.
Very few bands have the quality of Stryper. Can’t wait to hear the new one.
Stryper has done more music than most bands in the last 20 years. Always loved Michael in Stryper and a solo artist. Great work!
GREAT interview!!! Being a fan since '85, I feel that everything from No More Hell to Pay through now is the best of the Stryper career!!! I favor them much more than the classic Stryper records, but I still love the classics.
I dont buy as many hard copy cds of music as I used to. But I buy every Stryper release. The music, songwriting, and artwork is always top notch these days. These last few albums are their best in my opinion. Cannot wait for this one!
LOVED The Final Battle. So i can't wait for the next one! Brought a few friends with me to the McHenry IL show of the tour last year and they were the type that would've normally not seen Stryper live but they came out converted to how great they truly are. One of my other buds was like "wow, i really misjudged these guys!" Keep at it.
Michael met and took pictures with King Diamond at a festival in Mexico a couple years ago and had a great conversation with him. I thought it was really cool.
Eternity is very real to one who loses close family members. Stay strong, Stryper!
Great interview! Stryper is in my top 3 favorite bands! Love the new material 03-pres!
Great interview. I’ve been a fan since 1985…looking forward to hearing the new album. IMO “Fallen” is still the all time greatest Stryper album.
Stryper, Skillet and P.O.D would be an epic tour!! Wel love you Michael Sweet! Continue being a Rocker and a warrior my brother!
Cool Interview, Looking Forward To The New Album💛🖤
I have been a stryper fan for years and I have all their cds 💿 vinyls and cassettes and every album gets better and better all through the years. And thanks for interviewing him Michael sweet always does great interviews .
Awesome interview! Great job!
Their new song, “End of Days” is AMAZING!!! Can’t wait to get the album!
aaahhh wee sooo cool....and
GREAT JOB ALL...THANX 4 MAKING Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO the music worldwide.
LOVE YOU ALL...!!!....MUCH LOVE.!!
Looking forward to the album. Great conversation guys.
I heard one of the new Stryper songs on TH-cam, and it reminds me so much of a song that could have been on To Hell With Th Devil. That Guitar tone has that classic tone, not many bands carry a classic tone over to newer albums!
Looking forward to the new album and seeing you guys in Tucson 🤘👊
🙏🙌
Michael sweet and stryper is a class act and I have been a fan since 86 these guys are great and if they can get close to saginaw mi I definitely want to see them live,so many great songs and albums
I was at this 2005 Lorca SPain festival, Stryper played around 1:h30 am to 3:00 PM lml ! ANd the guys did a meet and sign and greet after show at 3:00 am !
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'd love to see a box set from the reunion to present.
GOD BLESS MICHAEL SWEET & STRYPER
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥✝️❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
The one band from the 80s that got even better .....
Judas Priest’s last album ranks as one of their best
@@timbaker4253 Priest is right up there as far as one of the classic bands that got better over the past several years!
You guys need to be on a lot of bills to tour with theses bands. It needs to happen.
My first time seeing Stryper was in 84 at the Royal oak music theater for soldiers under command tour. It was Great but the following year i seen them on to hell with the devil and they were So freaking good!! I actually seen that tour twice because it was So good. What a Great band!! And Still going strong.
I am excited and hyped up plus cannot wait here. I've been listening to Stryper since I first saw the music video called, I believe in you on mtv back in the day. I just bought stryper to hell with the amps cd yesterday and I have to say it's a very good acoustic CD.
Pretty cool how Michael sweet .likes alot of different bands. The covering album was so awesome when I heard stryper doing alot of great metal songs that I grew up with.
Oh nice a Extreme sounding song? You guys got me excited for this album! Ik Michael said he was trying to get Nuno on a song when he did Ten but scheduling didnt work out
Doesn’t really sound like Extreme. Just has a “funk” to it. Just a little
@michaelsweet8158 Nice!! I'm looking forward to hearing it all brother! You guys always seem to outdo the last album
For best Stryper albums are Soldiers under Commande,Too he'll with the Devil, Against the Law and No more hell to Pay.
Can't wait to hear the new one
Jimmy is right. No singers since the 90's can't touch Michael. Micheal is one of the best metal ( yes metal) singer
Stryper fan
Tell it Michael. On point.
Im a Stryper fan since Soldiers under Commande came out. But I never had the chance to see Stryper Live
I love every Stryper albums
I can do without some of Maiden albums.
I love my old Stryper albums the way it came out in the 80's.
I don't want remix. I would love to get
the original Yellow and black Attack
I would like to get some DVD's. Any live show? How about a live album?
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like the old stuff, but it's the new stuff that really got me into Stryper..
Michael I would say to try to get into his word more often, as you mentioned these are the last days. Without knowing his word things will get harder determining the truth as the days get darker. Your also right we love the sinner but not the sin. But we will also need to take a stand on issues like LGBTQ as christians and no matter how hard you try to be careful you will be hated if you don't accept everything they push and this is not just the only issue but it's a big one. I don't think listening to a Satanic song is wise, his word says to avoid every appearance of evil. This is why it's important to know his word.
I say this with all love and respect.
Hey Alan how about Sword III? That's a long waiting album. But man it's a great one
All of the LA ORIGINALS(That are noted of the main, early 80’s bands to come out of LA!)!:
Motley, Wasp, Ratt, Dokken, and Stryper! Or, even realistically, I don’t believe Motley Crue would “lower” themselves to sign on, but definitely, Wasp, Ratt, and Stryper! And I have thought that for years! Triple headlining, or, even extract that terminology, each of them playing an hr., hr. and a half!
I like the new stuff much better than the old stuff…from like 2012 on … mot such a fan of the last album, but I like it.
🤘🔥💥❤️
Tara loves you guys
I am a huge Stryper Fan! and I have NEVER felt Michael's lyrics were "Preach-y" at all! I think they would fit on the Priest bill
especially the spiritual lyric direction Rob Halford has been taking on Invisible Shield, Priest were never satanic anyway.
Well Michael I must be a weird one but I think your best album so far is The Final Battle. I never go back to the old records, except a few songs. I made a Stryper playlist for running and 90% are new songs!!!
🙏👊
1000%! Ive been a Stryper fan since the beginning, I love the old stuff, but the last several albums have been CRAZY GOOD and better (IMO) in every way.! I can not wait until When We Were Kings is released. Its gonna be great!
Stryper is on the Rock Yeshua Jesus Christ and rocks!
Amen! Michael Ashley! John 3:16! The new and realistic covenant!
Pat Paradise Rock Station digs this!
I love Trinity but one of my problems with it is there is no lyric about the Spirit. That is a missed detail for me that hurts it a bit.
Def Leppard/ Stryper for the next Stadium tour. That would be cool
I get what mike is saying about singing voices and i agree. But i personally always put micheals voice up with the best of the 80s. Tate, Dio, Halford or Dickinson. His voice was higher range than those guys but as for strength of vocals hes definitely in the tops and id argue that with ANYBODY!!
Been asking for an instrumental song for years…
Tal ves hay celo hacia Stryper... su calidad es incuestionable y supera a la mayoria de las bandas en produccion de canciones, que es inagotabla hasta la fecha. No creo que exista otra banda con eso.
Larga vida a Stryper!
seria esse novo álbum um prenúncio do fim da banda, porque quando começam a lembrar dos tempos áureos do passado, é um indício que a banda está acabando, espero que eu esteja errado, mas....., saudações do Brasil.🇧🇷
Tara is behind ya
You were here in 2014 in SPain, Leyendas Del Rock, contact Marcos and come back with Narnia in 2025 !
Jimmy, you mention in this episode that you don't like the bands that Maiden take out as support? There is a simple explanation: you don't listen to these bands because they are newer bands and you don't care about newer bands. You will listen to and support new music put out by legacy bands that you drooled over in high school (ex. Maiden, Priest, Stryper, Anvil, etc.), but overwhelmingly don't give any coverage to newer bands trying to get their footing in an ever more diffcult 21st century music business. And yes, I know, you have interviewed newer bands (ex. Thundermother, The Gems, Lucifer); but for ever 21st century band you give the time of day to, the Maidens of the metal world will still get 100x more attention. But hey, the 20th century is where your strength is, so keep it up. There are plenty of other podcasts that focus on newer bands, or even (heaven forbid) focus on both legacy and newer bands.
This is TMV mission statement 'we do whatever we want'
@@TheMetalVoice Yes you do. The 20th century thanks you 🤘
No need to interpret the Bible and wonder if you've got it right. The Holy Church has already done that. The Catholic Church, established by Jesus Christ Himself, give you all the tools to be a good Christian. Don't try to be your own church, it'll only lead to confusion.
Huh?
@@michaelsweet8158 Big surprise, here comes Michael Sweet and his Anti-Catholic bias. 🤣
Nah, it's just that they were talking about reading the Bible and Jimmy mentioned how people interpret it differently. But Jesus Christ established His Church and the Church is the living tradition of His word and we don't need to re-interpret anything. We have the fullness of the Faith.
The Roman Catholic Church is confusion!
Protestants and Baptists Protest the errors of Roman Catholicism! If they did not they would be Roman Catholic! You are the one with a bias against Protestants and Baptists!
With all respect, if you think the ten commandments in schools is unconstitutional , you don't have a clue about US History.
Depends if you think the constitution should be interpreted as it was in 1787 or 2024. Since it first expressly say either way
@@Stg217 th-cam.com/video/aT89pbdvErE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gWyPxw-7LtnkMUqE
Take a look at the Ten Commandments and even an Atheist would agree with most of it! For example Thou shall not kill and not steal sounds does not sound like a dangerous ideology! Maybe it could inspire Schools Kids not to kill and steal!
@@mjsculdeeexcept for “have no other gods before me”. The Ten Commandments cannot be taught without a religious perspective. But we can teach moral values without the Ten Commandments.
I wouldn’t display the 10 commandments, I would use a better choice…….
John 3:16!!!
80s Stryper was a perfect blend of pop and metal. Nowadays there’s not much pop left in their sound. Both versions of Stryper are awesome in their own way.
Wow Michael can't be more right .
Why school alowd the rainbow flag but not religious?
Voting? I'm Canadian and our ministers are not better. I personally don't vote. It's worthless
Thanks for sharing! God bless you guys ! Savior king Jesus keep you safe always on God's biblical flat earth! Stryper fans check out dean odles biblical flat earth presentation!
Go back to your roots. Trying to be slayer alienates your older fans who chose you guys over thrash metal bands.
No, no and no
I’ve been to 22 Stryper concerts in my life. I’ll never spend another red cent. At least Sebastian Bach still puts out rock n roll!
@michaelsweet8158 there's not even a slayer vibe in Stryper's music so I'm lost at what this so called fan is saying
@@tylerthescreamofficial98you do look lost.
@@mountainguy7778 Maybe you should have your hearing checked. I've seen them about 7 or 8 times, with the most recent show being last year, and they were excellent live. They played a good set mix of the classic stuff from the 80's and their newer stuff. And they sound nothing like Slayer.
