Comment: If you like Christian rock, Stryper is the one you should defintely know, and this album is the one you should defintely own. With this album Stryper opened the gates for many other Christian rock artists. Their Debut album "The Yellow And Black Attack" had many great songs but this album has ten great songs. Songs like "Soldiers Under Command", "Reach Out", "Makes Me Wanna Sing" and "The Rock That Makes Me Roll" can still be heard in their gigs after 22 years. I know because I have been in their gig in 2007. They also had "Battle Hymn of the Republic" as an intro. You could say that it was a great day for "Soldiers..." (it was also for THWTD...). Also the ballads "First Love" and "Together As One" are great songs. Michael Sweet has a great voice...I think it's even better than for example Bruce Dickinson's. Anyway, this album is pure gold, and a metal classic.
Stars: Together As One, The Rock That Makes Me Roll, Soldiers Under Command

Summary: Timeless Christian Rock!
Comment: Come on, admit it.... you remember the old days when MTV actually played music, watching the Stryper videos playing and rocking out to the music.
I got the urge to hear some of their classic hits again, so I picked up the first four CDs via Amazon. I fully expected to listen to them now and think, "Huh, I remember them being so much better than this...."
I was wrong. Their original songs still rock as hard today as any other band out there in their sound genre. They didn't go for half the gimicky sound that some of the bands had, they just stuck to a standard rock & roll formula that worked, and it sounds just as great today as it did back then.
Well worth the meager price paid for the CDs. ;-)

Summary: Classic Hair Metal
Comment: This album rocks and it has the typical girly slow songs engineered for the radio.
If the whole album was like the first two songs, it would have been 4 or 5 stars!

Summary: More good stuff...
Comment: Raw, hard and crunchy! But it has a twist... It's almost like Judas Priest meets Styx...I know...it's weird, but in a good way. Awesome album. If you like Christian metal then you'll love Soldiers Under Command.
