Album of the week: Stryer - The Yellow and Black Attack! (1984)

Now it's time for some good old ass-kicking heavy metal from the 1980s! Stryper were one of the very first overtly-Christian metal bands to gain mainstream success, leading to much derision both from the conservatives Christians and the metalheads. However, what does it matter, if the music's great? And that's what this is! Now, there may be some sappy songs on here, but overall it's a nice speedy metal album. My favourite track is probably From Wrong to Right, I remember listening that to that song quite a bit a few months ago. Give it a listen you guys, if you like Judas Priest in particular I think you'll enjoy this. Glam metal fans should also be able to get into this fairly easily.
