    More than a Man from the 80’s era is one of my favs. Personally, all the albums from NMHTP, Fallen, God Damn Evil, and Even the Devil Believes are top notch. I think to this point ETDB is absolute gold. See what the new one has in store very soon.

  • @rmcclain124
    @rmcclain124 Рік тому +7

    Great review. I do have to add some info though.
    When the guys got back together, the first few albums they put out didn't go over well. They tried some new things with instrument sounds and styles. It didn't go over well with the band or old school fans, and it didn't bring in many new fans. To me, the songs weren't at fault, but the strange production threw me off. They went back to 'their' sound and re-found themselves.
    As for the drumming, Robert Sweet is a really good drummer, but he is a showman at heart. He comes up with all sorts of odd equipment setups. (Cymbals hanging on chains or toms mounted to a horizontal, semi-circular bar) The most consistent being that he likes to position his kit at 90 degrees from the normal "bass drums at front-center orientation" so that the audience can see what he's doing.
    IMO, their last 2 albums have been some of their finest work. We'll have to wait for this new album to drop to see if the trend continues.
    Here's a recommendation for you. Listen to "This I Pray" and "Invitation Only" from the "Even the Devil Believes" album. This I Pray has a Southern Rock vibe to it, and Invitation Only feels like a poppy, radio-friendly song from the 80s. As you tell, this has some stylistic diversity to it, but you can still tell that it's Stryper. That's what the reformation albums were missing.
    Enjoy!

    • @ryant3600
      @ryant3600 Рік тому +2

      Actually the Reborn album which is when they all reunited was techically a Michael Sweet solo album, or it was written to be. That one didn't go over to well, since it was kind of a long anticipated reunited album. Murder By Pride I thought was more of a classic sounding Stryper album, but Michael was going through a lot during that process, his wife was dying of cancer, plus he was touring w/ Boston and Robert didn't play on it. So, there was a lot going on. Then they did things smart they took time off from making a full album again. They did an album of covers which was great, then they did a re-recording of old hits and a couple new ones.. Those led towards the new heavier Stryper sound.

    • @rmcclain124
      @rmcclain124 Рік тому +1

      @@ryant3600 Agreed. There was a lot of things and issues with the band and its members during the first few years after they reformed--most of it not pleasant. Murder was an okay effort with good songs. But between introducing Tracie on bass and Rob not manning the drums--it just didn't feel like Stryper. That said, the fact that they are still a band after all that is a blessing.
      Perry Richardson coming onboard on bass has been a breath of fresh air, and he's a good fit. He plays with punch and is not afraid to get creative with effects.

    One of maybe only a few bands from the 80s that keeps getting better. I thought "Murder By Pride" was pretty weak, but every album after that has been fantastic. I think Michael Sweet's voice sounds better now than it ever has.

Michael is one of the Few vocalists that seem to get better w/age, like a Fine Wine!-lol.

    Try Yahweh from the newer ones. It´s just Stryper from 2013 onwards has been and is the best era of the band. Heavier and just in overall better in many aspects. I like Michael´s singing more nowadays, back in the 80´s he was good, but a bit too "soft" sometimes, if you get what I mean. Stryper 2023 is one of the best bands around.
