New Stryper album in the works...

Michael Sweet announced a few days ago via Facebook that writing for the new Stryper record is finished, and the band will start pre-production on February 1st.

There's no album title or any other details yet... but Michael sez the album will feature 12 new songs and one cover tune, and he's "very excited" about one song he worked on with Clint Lowery of Sevendust, for whatever that's worth.

I really enjoyed the last album (and also Second Coming and the covers album), the boys have been on a roll of late. Bring it on!

Must be trying to make up for those 15 years of inactivity. Smile

cool. I liked the last 2 albums. I hope Oz lets loose on the solo's because he's an AMAZING guitarist.

If it's near the level of NMHTP, I'll be thrilled. That's tied with Against the Law as my favorite Stryper.

And I agree that Oz needs to wail.

Looking forward to it. The last one was very good.

Yes, recent albums, including covers, were great.
Should be good if they continue on the current streak.

Updated info...

Christian hard rockers STRYPER entered SpiritHouse Recording Studios in Northampton, Massachusetts earlier in the month to begin recording their new album, "Fallen", for a late 2015 release via Frontiers.

Michael Sweet posted a few samples - sounds pretty good to me, an extension of the last album (which is a good thing IMHO)

Awesome! Saw these guys last summer and it was a great show.

Stryper/Michael Sweet has been killing it for the last few years. Seems like they are busier than every. I wonder if this will be as heavy as the last one.

He loves them so much they are going to cover After Forever. That should be great!!

I wouldn't even include it in my top 50 favorite Black Sabbath songs, but I'll be interested to hear their version. I tend to find that Stryper's covers improve on songs I don't normally care for. On the contrary, I generally don't enjoy their covers of songs I do like.
