Yes, that's right, folks, the '80s glam-metal-turned-heavy-metal band from Orange County, STRYPER [Isaiah 53:5 - Salvation Through Redemption Yielding Peace, Encouragement, and Righteousness] is back! I know, I know, in THE GREAT DEBATE: Stryper: Christian or not? I ultimately reached the conclusion that they were but had gone apostate. I have been listening to some of their more recent albums and would like to correct that conclusion. I think around 2009 they were starting to come back to Christ but were still growing in their faith, but I think by their 2013 album No More Hell to Pay and definitely by 2015's Fallen, Stryper has returned, for good (which, honestly, is just amazing to me that they still are that talented and yet are over 50!)
But believe it or not, they are one of the few Christian metal bands left that are still touring! Yes, you heard me right! Just visit their website to see when and where they are playing in your area! Who knows, maybe I might see some of you there!
