Digital Praise®, Inc, the leader in Christian-themed, family-friendly entertainment software and currently under pending merger agreement with Left Behind Games (OTC Bulletin Board: LFBG), today unveiled the newest addition for its hugely popular Guitar Praise™ PC guitar controller game—the Guitar Praise Stryper Expansion Pack. Packing 25 top Stryper tracks into one amazing compilation, the Guitar Praise Stryper Expansion Pack gives players a fresh and inspiring new way to enjoy Guitar Praise.
The Guitar Praise Stryper Expansion Pack celebrates the 25th Anniversary of Stryper, the definitive Christian hard rock band and the first to achieve crossover success in the mainstream music world. The band's trademark blend of melodic vocals, heavy guitar licks and pounding drums, which has matured since the band's debut in 1984 but lost none of its powerful appeal, has generated sales of more than 8 million albums worldwide.
One of the most mesmerizing stage acts still today, Stryper received tremendous exposure on television's MTV and VH1, paving the way for more faith-fueled bands to be considered for airplay. Stryper continues to record Billboard charting albums and will be touring worldwide once again in late summer/early fall of 2010.
"This exclusive expansion pack, the first and only game-based distribution of material from the Stryper collection, keeps Guitar Praise at the forefront of hard driving, mega-amped yet uplifting Christian gaming," said Tom Bean, President and CEO of Digital Praise. "Anyone who enjoys Guitar Praise will have a great time losing themselves in the lyrics, intensity and incredible rock-and-roll power of Stryper."Highlights in the Guitar Praise Stryper Expansion Pack from the band's various albums include:
Reborn -- 'Open Your Eyes'; 'Reborn', 'Wait For You', 'Live Again', 'I.G.W.T.'
7 Weeks: Live in America -- 'To Hell With The Devil', 'Soldiers Under Command', 'Lour 'n Clear', 'Sing Along Song', 'More Than A Man', 'Free', 'Caught In The Middle'
Murder By Pride -- 'Mercy Over Blame', 'Love Is Why', 'Murder By Pride', '4 Leaf Clover', 'Eclipse For The Son', 'The Plan', 'I Believe', 'Everything'
Since its introduction in 2008, Guitar Praise has vaulted to the head of the Christian gaming market, enabling players of all ages to rock out to tracks by the best bands in Contemporary Christian Rock. The game allows either one player to perform in solo mode, or two players to compete for the better lead guitar score. With a second guitar (sold separately), players can jam at the same time—both on lead guitar or one on lead and the other on bass.
