Review: Following from 2022's not-aptly titled The Final Battle, Orange County Christian power metal legends Stryper continue to weave their devout beliefs and relentless knack for face-melting riffage into one triumphant experience of galloping "God rock". While many of their more popular, less religiously focused peers in say Motley Crue or Poison rest on laurels and legacy shows, primary songwriter Michael Sweet has seemingly refused to let age slow down his frenetic shredding or informed compositions, leading to their 15th full-length When We Were Kings firing on as many cylinders as they were on their 1986 magnum opus To Hell With The Devil. Timeless, seasoned, polished, if you love your retro metal with big hair and some Jesus adoration to boot, you really have come to the perfect place.
