SoleDriver, 'Rise Again' -- New Song

New Music Alert! Sunday seems like the right day to post this new track from SoleDriver. The band is Michael Sweet's side project when he isn't focusing on Stryper. His SoleDriver partner is Alessandro Del Vecchio.

SoleDriver is more melodic-AOR than Stryper in my opinion. Or at least what I've heard of the act so far."Rise Again" is from the upcoming album Return Me To Light. The SoleDriver debut is due November 17 via Frontiers.

Stryper, 'Near' -- Lyric Video

Stryper just dropped their lyric video for the track "Near" from their new album The Final Battle. This is a good ballad! What do you think?

'Transgressor' - New Stryper

Stryper has a new video out for their song "Transgressor" off the album The Final Battle. The song seems heavier than most Stryper, but I am not expert on the band. "Transgressor" seems like a tight track and good song for Friday. Happy weekend - I'm pretty tired and glad the work week is just about done!

Stryper, 'See No Evil, Hear No Evil' -- New Track

There's new Stryper music today! The band just released the song "See No Evil, Hear No Evil." The song will be on the band's upcoming new album. I really like the beginning especially. The guitars even sound a little sludgy, so there's a definite heavy sound here. The guitar solo in the middle of the song is classic 80s all the way and the chorus is catchy too.

Honestly, I like this song better than the new Skid Row track I shared yesterday. The new Stryper album is due sometime this year.

Sunday's Best: Week 15, 2022

We made it through another week and also -- Happy Easter and Passover to those who celebrate.

Since this is a religious weekend for many, it makes sense to look back on some of Stryper's live performances. The Yellow and Black Attack shred their axes for Jesus and they have never wavered from their core mission to use rock to spread the gospel. Stryper Live is our Sunday's Best for this week.
