Stryper has been a Growin’ Up Rock part of my life since they released the Yellow and Black Attack back in 1984.
Singer and lead guitarist Michael Sweet is an amazing singer and we feel criminally underrated as a guitar player, so it is an honor to have him sit in with us on today’s podcast. We talk to Michael about some of his earliest memories and influences, and we get into Stryper’s latest release “God Damn Evil.” Check out GUR co-host Sonny Pooni’s album review right here.
Michael is the driving force behind Stryper and he appears to be one of the hardest working men in rock n roll, with solo projects, Stryper albums, touring, Sweet and Lynch records, etc. When does this dude find the time to do stuff, like you know SLEEP!?!
To me, it seems like the music the band has been releasing on the last two albums is as good, if not better, than anything they released in their so called “Hey Day.” I say their “Hey Day” is today!!
So grab your bible (just kidding, no preaching here, this is a rock show) and turn it up while you check out the latest episode of the Growin’ Up Rock podcast.
