NOTES
Coming off
the acclaim of the 1989 tour In God We Trust the band retreated for
eight months of rehearsal in Robert sweet's studio, honing their sound
to a keener edge for the nineties. The result was this release, which
shipped gold in the fall of 1990. Despite it's sales success,
some fans were confused by Stryper's musical metamorphosis which includes
their appearance. This led to numerous rumors and questions about
the sincerity of Stryper's faith. This is the best Stryper album.
