The
new Stryper album entitled "The Covering" featuring all original members will be
released in the Fall of 2010. Read the letter from Michael Sweet below for more
details:


Hey Everyone,

Just as
promised, I wanted to outline some more details regarding the new Stryper
record. We grew up listening to many different styles of music and there is a
list of bands that influenced us throughout our musical education. Bands like
Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Van Halen, UFO, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin,
Queen, Kansas and many others, helped to shape our sound and make us who we are
today, musically speaking. We grew up on the streets of LA playing every club in
town from Gazzari's to The Whisky to The Troubadour to you name it. We played
covers from all the bands mentioned above and we shaped our own sound from
listening and performing songs from these classic bands. We wanted to step
outside the box and record a record that shows you, the fans, where we come from
- our historical, musical roots so to speak. It's a side to Stryper that no one
has really seen or heard before, or at least quite like this. We performed "On
Fire" by Van Halen on a few tours and we also performed "Breaking The Law" by
Priest on this last tour. The response was far beyond our expectations each time
we performed these songs. People seemed genuinely surprised to hear Stryper
cover these songs and even more surprised to hear Stryper perform these songs
relatively well. This will be an opportunity for Robert, Oz, Tim and myself to
loosen up and have some fun. For those of you who may think that we're walking
away from our faith - your wrong. We've never been more serious about our faith
at any point in our lives. It is however important to enjoy what you do and
lighten up from time to time. That's what we plan to do. This will be a fun
record to make and we hope that this comes through, as well as the chance to
showcase the abilities that we've been blessed with. More details to come and a
specific song list and sequence to follow. We're looking forward to geting back
into the studio and more important, to seeing all of you on the road again this
year!

Be well, be blessed and let the games
begin,

Michael

I'm looking forward to it. However, if there are other CDs out at that time that I must choose between, I'll go with the others over a cover tune disc.

I feel the same way, the Stryper cover album is not high on my wanted list.
