STRYPER Ask Fans For Help On New Album
March 7, 2012, 12 years ago
STRYPER frontman Michael Sweet has posted the following update online wherein he calls upon fans to tell him what they want to here on Stryper’s new album:
“What do you want to hear on the next Stryper all original record? Straight ahead rock/metal with no ballads or a power ballad or two thrown into the soup? I think a record consisting of songs similar to the style of ‘The Writings On The Wall’, ‘Soldiers Under Command’, ‘More Then A Man’, ‘Free’, ‘The Rock That Makes Me Roll and ‘In God We Trust, ‘Rocking The World’, ‘Loud And Clear’ ‘Caught In The Middle’ and ‘God’ would be slammin'!!! I've got a lot of songs heading in that direction; Maybe no ballads?”
