Product Description
Run a Quick Search on "Murder By Pride" by Stryper to Browse Related Products:Browse more products related to "Murder By Pride"Browse more products related to "Stryper"Title NoteAfter the original Stryper lineup (minus bassist Tim Gaines) reunited for 2005's somewhat alternative/nu-metal tinged REBORN, the band made a stylistic return to form with MURDER BY PRIDE. Brimming with harmonized twin guitar leads, big hair metal-approved shout-along hooks, and Michael Sweet's trademark soaring, Dennis DeYoung-esque vocals, the album rivals the best of Styper's `80s output, including the genre-defining TO HELL WITH THE DEVIL. Even casual fans who only know the band's mega-hit power ballad "Honestly" will find a lot to like in the piano-driven, Beatles-reminiscent "Alive." Elsewhere, songs such as the pounding, shred guitar solo-laden "4-Leaf Clover" and the head-banging title track manage to recapture the exciting essence of group's MTV heyday without ever sounding retro or dipping into self-parody.

I was never too into stryper back in the days, but one of my friends bought me a
MBP as my bday present couple days ago. anyways, last time i gave them a listen
i believe was early 90s. someone told me they were no longer christians so gave
them a try. there were few decent songs but i wasnt too impressed. fast foward
20 years and gave them a another try.. what the hell it was free anyways. WOW!!
These guys totally blew me away. Are they the same guys 20 years ago? i couldnt
believe it. what a group of amazingly talented muscians. if any of you guys
are ROCK fan like me, this is a must buy. you will not regret it. i guess i
could say im a stryper fan after not giving them a chance for 20 plus years.
Just incredible!! im planning on pickin up their previous albums as well..

Stryper, for those who dont know, are the first Christian Rockers to achieve
mainstream recognition and praise for its music and message. Whether you are a
Christian or not is hardly the point, since music itself is universal and this
album showcases why Stryper was a name to be reckoned in the 80s and early 90s,
and why you should give them a go now more than ever.
From track 1 you are on
for a ride on their unique mix of high pitched vocals, crude and skillful guitar
playing, solos, catchy choruses and backing vocal harmonies. Even more special,
though, is that the lyrics are great statements of hope, faith,
gratefulness
to God and a real appreciation of lifes beauty, something you dont get much (if
ever) in Rock albums.
So much has been expected from this band lately, since
their announced return in the beginning of this century, and after a somewhat
disappointing comeback studio album in 2005 called Reborn (good album, but not
outstanding), Murder by Pride is definitely the real deal. There is a fine
balance of edgier songs mixed together with fantastic heartfelt ballads that
transpire emotion in every word.
Stand out tracks for me are 4 Leaf Clover,
Peace of Mind (cover off legendary Boston), Alive, Murder by Pride, Love is Why,
Mercy over Blame and Everything.
An album that has everything to please
everyone, definitely a must-have!
