Stryper has released the first track "End of Days" from their upcoming new album, due in September via Frontiers Records. Pretty cool stuff, the riffing has a modern Judas Priest feel to it...

Very good track and a pleasant surprise.
Always in the mood for a new Stryper album.

Stryper has aged better than any other 80s band.

I'd go so far as to say they're better now than they were back in the day!

I can agree with that.
The new track is really good. Nice crunchy guitars and a great solo to boot.
This reminds me that I still haven't picked up their last album.

My Stryper collection is sorely lacking. I had Soldiers and To Hell With The Devil on cassette back in the day but got rid of my tape collection a long time ago. I have one cd by them , Murder By Pride, which I found at at Goodwill for next to nothing. It's decent enough. I should try and get up to par on the rest of their discography someday.

The heavy rockers from the past are still my favorites, but at least the recent albums don’t have any songs like Honestly.

I used to have that "Can't stop the Rock" collection when I was still a Christian . Happy to see they are in form , in spite of the fact that most of them are older than 60 now ...

If Vulcano was formed in 1981, most of the original guys are in their 60’s.

I was surprised by the new song. Kinda power-metallish but they pulled it off very well!

MBP was okay, but nothing that compares to the 5 albums since then.
You should check those out..

Stryper revealed the cover art and title to their forthcoming new album today. It'll be called "When We Were Kings" and will be out on Frontiers Records in September.

Is anyone else thinking of Anthrax “For All Kings”?

Stryper dropped two (!) new songs from the new album this week: "Loves Symphony" and "Grateful." Both are pretty good. "Loves Symphony" is another hard rocker with a cool groove, and "Grateful" sounds like a re-creation of their highly polished '80s style/vibe (think "Calling on You").

I liked the End of Days tune, but these other ones are dull!

Cool new video for the title track from "When We Were Kings" is full of vintage photos and film clips from the band's early days.
