ALBUM REVIEW

Throne of Thorns finds Stryper reinforcing rather than reinventing its identity, combining classic heavy metal, melodic hard rock, soaring vocal harmonies, and a contemporary production approach. Highly recommended for fans of classic heavy metal and melodic hard rock.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

“Soon our new Stryper record will be out, and can you believe it? It’s album number 18! I really believe you’re all going to love it. Michael worked incredibly hard writing these songs and bringing everything together. Oz, Perry, and I also worked hard to make this, what I feel is our best record yet. I’m confident that once you hear it, you’ll agree. Thank you all for your incredible loyalty and for continuing to support what we do.”

Robert Sweet – Drums

“The best music doesn’t come from comfort. It comes from living, struggling, growing, and refusing to quit. I hope these songs find you exactly when you need them.”

Perry Richardson – Vocals/Bass

“I’m really happy with the final outcome of this record and of the heart that went into it. Michael continues to pour everything he has into the music and the message; Robertbrings the power and energy that has always been the pulse of STRYPER; Perry’s musicianship, vocal talents, and dedication are second to none, and I’m grateful to be on this journey with all of them.”

Oz Fox – Vocals/Lead and Rhythm Guitar
