[Axemane]

Any Stryper fans here?

If you like Stryper and you like classic hard rock/metal, this is a fun CD. Although they are not as aggressive as I'd like(they never were really), they pull off some cool tunes on here. Michael Sweet's voice is just too "pretty" for some of these.....

1.Set Me Free
2.Blackout
3.Heaven And Hell
4.Lights Out
5.Carry On Wayward Son
6.Highway Star
7.Shout It Out Loud
8.Over The Mountain
9.The Trooper
10.Breaking The Law
11.On Fire
12.Immigrant Song
13.God

Band Lineup:
Michael Sweet – Lead Vocals & Guitars
Oz Fox – Guitars & Vocals
Robert Sweet – Drums
Timothy Gaines – Bass & Vocals
Charles Foley – Keyboards/Piano/Organ

And the cover art is soooooo cheezy ;D

Long time fan. I have the CD and like it. Will be seeing them the 24th at BB King's in NYC, then at the Crazy Donkey a week later. I also see the whole band is using Line 6 now...No more Mesa's. I saw them last year on the 25th anniv. tour. They were super tight and vocals were spot-on...If they only had Quick Rods...\m/.

MetaltronixMike, I totally agree. The CD is great and I forgot what a lead player OZ is. The solo in "Lights Out" is amazing. Mike, do you know if he used the Line6 amps on the cd? I know he uses them live but the tones he got on the album were great.
