Mindblowing Reaction To Stryper (Jam Session) - To Hell With The Devil & The Valley

you are absolutely right, that is the first album I heard, in the 70's I was saved 1979 to be exact, prior to that I was hard into KISS, my parents made me give up the kiss records, so finding Stryper in the 80's gave me something that sounded like KISS, even better than KISS even, and something to keep the parental units happy

I was in high school at the time and a good friend of mine and I drove from Augusta, GA over to Fayetteville, NC to see them live on this Tour which was absolutely amazing!!! Such high energy, enthusiasm and passion coupled w/ impeccable musicianship, etc as expected. Fun fact: my first day back at school after that show I wore my concert T-shirt w/ the album cover on the front - one of my teachers sent me to the principal's office because of the words "hell" & "devil"...they wound up making me call my Mom to bring me a different shirt so I could change shirts and stay in school for the rest of the day!

I love "Reach Out" from "Soldiers Under Command". It's incredibly melodic and even though the chorus is repetitious, it works! "To Hell With the Devil" is a lot more polished than the previous albums and it even gets more polished as it goes on with "In God We Trust". "Soldiers Under Command" is to me their best album with no bum tracks. "No More Hell To Pay" is a really good recent album. Also, they did an album of covers called "The Covering" that has a song called "God" that I think is one of their best songs ever!

Stryper was in the top four metal bands of the 80's. I still have several magazines from back in the day that would prove that.

[@Deetroiter]

First time I heard Stryper some years ago, it was one of their ballad songs and, in my ignorance, I chalked them up to all their songs being wimpy and soft like their glam image. Years later, I hear a HEAVY ASS riff in a song called “do unto others”…I had absolutely no idea it was the same band. I couldn’t turn off the repeat button for that song. I started listening to more and more of them…easily became one of my favorite metal bands. They’re one of the only bands I can think of that actually IMPROVED with age getting better and better. I also hugely respect that they don’t shy away from what they are about and where they stand. A lot of bands are quick to sway with the wind…Stryper is unapologetic about who they are. That’s something to be respected. And I can’t even imagine all the shit they’ve taken over the years. Too metal for some Christians, too Christian for some metalheads…although it’s crazy how many fans of all backgrounds they have. Christians, atheists, satanists, and everything in between follow these guys heavily….Stryper is a hell of a band of musicians. One of my all time faves of theirs is “more than a man”…it’s the last track on to hell with the devil. Total banger to end an album on!

This album is a classic for sure. So was Soldiers Under Command and Yellow Black Attack. Some people accused Stryper of using it as a gimmick but that is insane because that they did was, as you mentioned, they were the only one doing this while everyone was singing about the devil, evil, darkness, etc. At their live shows they would throw bibles into the audience. By all means what they did should have been a career ending footmark in history but instead they rose above it and because highly respected. Although the classics cannot be touch, a lot of their new stuff is amazing. As you noted in this reaction. Hard, talented musicianship, heavy, and awesome. I think Michael Sweet's really grew into his voice in his older age. He has done solo work which will blow your mind, with songs like "Bizarre" and "Million Miles Away". Get a listen on and thank you for posting and sharing this!

[@timpayne2316]

I’m 58 now . In my teens I listened to Stryper not because they were “christian rock” but because they sounded great musically - I was and am a “hair band” 80s fan. Years after listening to Stryper did I realize that most all their lyrics contain mostly “Christian” songs … I was to busy rockin to their solid rock sound to really think about it . Years went by and I lost touch with their music . About 6 years ago I started listening to them again - and Holy cow man, Michael is writing amazing songs - the band is playing heavier and tighter than ever . I saw them live about 4 years ago in Dallas . Michael is a perfectionist- he makes sure the music is loud, clear, and that everyone is getting their mind blown . One of the best bands ever to come out of the 80s - truly . Seeing them live / you too will be a believer in Stryper . Go see them this year 2022 - they are playing live in many city’s in the U.S. Another new album will be released around April before the tour starts in May. Stryper may be Christian believers - but Stryper is a true classic / heavier than they have ever been - Rock band

Watching you listen and enjoy the songs brings my enjoyment to a different level, too. Thanks for choosing these songs and digging them so much. They are also two of my faves by this band, though the first two songs off Fallen (Yahweh, Fallen) are the band at its most epic.

[@daffers2345]

I heartily agree! _Fallen_ is probably my favorite album overall (and it's hard to choose)! The song _Fallen_ itself helped me enormously when I was undergoing some weird spiritual stuff. I also like the song _Take It to the Cross._

Stryper the greatest band ever... lots of their fans here in indonesia. Greetings from indonesia...

That powerful feeling you had was the holy spirit hitting you ! Praise God With the clashing of cymbals and the banging of drums And sing loud to the heavens

Stryper an absolutely talented amazing band, it appears they just keep getting better and better with each album, I hope they stay together and outlive the Rolling Stones.

Stryper was actually popular throughout the 80's and got a lot of recognition for their musicianship throughout the decade, so much so that they crossed over to mainstream and released a few albums that were more secular than Christian and crossed back over to Christian metal and has continued to rock on too this day.

Classic Band, Album... Phenomenal band Stryper.. Love em✌️👏👏💪

[@karlsmith2570]

Without a doubt, "To Hell With The Devil" is most definitely a classic album Other songs from that particular album you should react to are: Calling On You Free Honestly Other Stryper songs in general you should definitely check out include: Loud And Clear Soldiers Under Command In God We Trust Against The Law Shining Star (Earth, Wind & Fire cover)

[@4themusicman]

Their cover of Shining Star blows the original away, IMO.

Michael sweet is the lead singer of Stryper they are one of my favorite bands so is Whitecross.

[@jesseibarra3811]

It definitely is a classic. You need to react to " more than a man" in this album.
