Reborn (2005)
Reborn is the eighth studio album by Christian Metal band Stryper, and the first full-length album of new material since Against the Law in 1990.
The sound of the album is more contemporary compared to their previous records. It is also heavier and has influences of grunge and alternative. This is the first album recorded by the band with new bass guitar player Tracy Ferrie.
Reborn became a rare collectors' item instantly, since the first copies of the album have a technical mistake; songs 7-9 are played in the album in a different order than the one stated on the cover artwork. Big 3 Records plans to re-release the album with the correct order of songs.
Reborn was released with a variety of cover art, depending on format and region. The alternate US cover art was created for record outlets (such as Christian bookstores) where the original cover art may have been perceived as too disturbing or offensive.
01. Open Your Eyes
02. Reborn
03. When Did I See You Cry
04. Make You Mine
05. Passion
06. Live Again
07. If I Die
08. Wait for You
09. Rain
10. 10,000 Years
11. I.G.W.T.

Against The Law (1990)
Against the Law is the 6th release, and 5th full-length album, from the Christian metal band Stryper, released on August 21, 1990.
This album marked a radical change in the musical and visual direction of the band. Gone were the bumblebee-colored spandex outfits, the bold evangelical lyrics and the familiar yellow-and-black band logo with Isaiah 53:5. In their place were leather outfits, and lyrics more focused on rock n' roll and relationships, although arguably from a Christian worldview. The album was praised by many critics as the band's strongest work to date, but a large percentage of Stryper's Christian fanbase felt betrayed by this unannounced creative metamorphosis, and many of them accused Stryper of selling out their image and message for greater mainstream acceptance. As a result, Against the Law sold poorly compared to the band's previous gold and platinum releases.
"Shining Star" is indeed a heavy metal cover of the classic Earth, Wind and Fire song.
Unlike Stryper's previous albums, which contained overt Christian lyrics, there is not a single mention of God on Against the Law.
01. Against The Law
02. Two Time Woman
03. Rock The People
04. Two Bodies (One Mind One Soul)
05. Not That Kind Of Guy
06. Shining Star
07. Ordinary Man

In God We Trust (1988)
In God We Trust is the 5th release, and 4th full-length album by Christian Metal band Stryper, released in 1988. After the hard-rocking To Hell with the Devil, Stryper decided to follow up with an album that was more pop-leaning and radio-friendly, and as a result, many critics and fans considered the album overproduced and too commercial. Despite the lukewarm reception, In God We Trust nevertheless achieved Gold record status, selling over half a million copies.
Bassist Tim Gaines did not participate in the recording of this album, but he rejoined the band on the In God We Trust tour.
01. In God We Trust
02. Always There For You
03. Keep The Fire Burning
04. I Believe In You

The Yellow And Black Attack (1986)
After Stryper achieved major success with their debut album, Soldiers Under Command, the Yellow And Black attack EP was reissued. Re-released on August 10, 1986 with two additional songs, "Reason For The Season" (which was originally released on a 1985 Christmas-themed 12" single with "Winter Wonderland") and a brand-new song, "My Love I'll Always Show." Even though The Yellow and Black Attack was originally an EP, some fans and critics now consider it to be a full album, their 2nd album. Nevertheless, their next release, Soldiers Under Command is still regarded as the band's full-length debut.
The cover art was changed for the 1986 re-release, downplaying the warlike theme of the original.
01. Loud 'N' Clear
02. From Wrong To Right
03. My Love I'll Always Show
04. You Know What To Do

To Hell With The Devil (1986)
To Hell with the Devil is the fourth release, and third full-length album, from the Christian metal band Stryper, released in 1986. It was both the first Contemporary Christian and Christian metal album to achieve Platinum status, selling over one million copies. It remains the best-selling Christian metal album of all time.
Throughout 1987, both music videos for Calling on You and Honestly ranked #1 on Dial MTV, the nightly MTV list of most requested videos. Success never seen before or since, by a Christian band.
The tour for To Hell with the Devil was arguably Stryper's most popular with the band playing in bigger venues (arenas as opposed to theatres for Soldiers Under Command).

The Yellow And Black Attack (1984)
The Yellow and Black Attack! is the first release from the Christian metal band Stryper. No singles were released from this six-song EP, and less than 20,000 copies were pressed, as their label, Enigma Records, was unsure of the potential market for Christian metal.
During the tour supporting this EP, Stryper opened for bands like Ratt and Bon Jovi, which caused some Christian listeners to insist that they were not a genuine Christian band.
