Year: 1984 Tracks: 8 Heavy alloy has been associated with ol' Beelzebub ever since its inception, just in that respect own been a few acts wHO took the opposite route and couch their Christian beliefs in unvoiced rocking songs, such as Stryper. Formed in Orange County CA in 1983, the group was originally known as Roxx Regime, and consisted of singer/guitarist/main songster Michael Sweet, drummer Robert Sweet, trail guitarist Oz Fox, and bassist Timothy Gaines. It wasn't until the group changed their call to Stryper (which stood for "Salvation Through Redemption Yielding Peace Encouragement and Righteousness") that things actually began taking off for the quadruple. Specializing in the melodic Van Halen/Def Leppard style (with heart-wrenching might ballads tossed in), polished in all black-and-yellow outfits, and public exposure their spiritual message even farther by tossing bibles out into the herd at their shows, Stryper was signed by the Enigma label in 1984. The same year, the group's debut recording, a six-track miniskirt record record album highborn The Yellow & Black Attack, was issued. The album created a buzz for the group among metalheads, which was only heightened with the firing of their first class honours degree uncut album, 1985's Soldiers Under Command. The low gear Stryper passing to crack up the Billboard charts, its success resulted in the re-release of The Yellow & Black Attack (which included an spear carrier deuce tracks and new nontextual topic) in 1986. Later the same year, Stryper issued their sophomore full-length, To Hell with the Devil, which many consider to be the group's finest hour. Turning out to be the highest-charting album of their career (hardly missing the Top 30), the platinum-certified record record album benefited by MTVs repeated airings of the videos for "Career on You" and the saccharine ballad "Honestly" (the latter of which ailing at number 23 on the U.S. singles charts). Despite possessing a different message than their peers, Stryper's music by this point fit in absolutely with the other popular pop/hair alloy bands of the day (Bon Jovi, White Lion, Dokken, etc.).Yet just as it appeared that Stryper could peradventure break through on a massive plate, such new metallic element styles as lick (Metallica) and more stripped rock 'n' undulate (Guns N' Roses) began to usurp Stryper's pop-metal audience. As a event, Stryper's next release, 1988's In God We Trust, failed to spread out their undermentioned, nor did it live up to anticipate of its harbinger (although it did finagle to garner gold credentials). Sensing this, the grouping adopted a harder-edged reasoned and look for 1990's Against the Law, and even covered the Earth, Wind & Fire puritanical funk graeco-Roman, "Lustrous Star." Neither managed to crossbreed over to the pinnacle of the charts.A greatest-hits set, Can't Stop the Rock, followed in 1991, merely with Nirvana precisely around to ring the death knell for pop-metal bands, Michael Sweet distinct to leave the chemical group for a solo life history. Surprisingly, the leftover members of Stryper opted to dribble on as a three-piece (with Fox handling principal vocal duties), and continued to turn for a spell. The Michael Sweet-less variation didn't extreme farsighted yet, as Stryper formally called it quits in 1992. In the wake of their origin split, its members remained meddling. Michael Sweet's solo calling ne'er scaled the same high as Stryper's, although solo releases establish appeared on a sanely regular substructure, with 1994's Michael Sweet, 1995's Literal, and 2001's Truth. Robert Sweet issued a solo recording, Love Trash, in addition to studio work, patch Fox and Gaines formed a new chemic group, Sin Dizzy, universe Health Organization issued a stone opera house (concerning the excruciation of Jesus Christ), coroneted He's Not Dead. During the intervening old age, a big core of devoted fans remained total, resulting in all of Stryper's albums beingness reissued by Hollywood Records. In 1999, Sin Dizzy played a show with Michael Sweet, which concluded in an offhanded jam session of older Stryper tunes -- resulting in reunion rumors. And with a heightened nostalgic interestingness regarding '80s earned run average metallic element bands come the early 21st century, Stryper in agreement to periodically reunite for a "Stryper Expo," which has since off into an annual event. Stryper's second greatest-hits' invoke, 7: The Best of Stryper, followed in 2003, and included a mate of new tunes recorded especially for the assembling, "Something" and "For You." |

Clay Aiken Calls Attention to Somalia
Clay Aiken is urging the world not to forget about Somalia.
The American Idol runner-up and a U.N. goodwill ambassador, appealed for world attention on the war-torn and hunger-stricken country on Wednesday.
"There hasn't been much discussion of Somalia since the early 1990s in the U.S.," Clay said during a visit to Somalia. "The American population kind of got a bad taste of Somalia in the early 90s and hasn't really had much interest in the country since."
In the past year, thousands of Somalians have died and one million were rendered homeless after insurgent Islamists rallied against the country's government and its Ethiopian military advisers last year. The violence and never-ending conflict has made Somalia "the most dangerous place for a child to be," Clay says.
"In the lower part of the country, southern part, I feel it's a more desperate situation than any place we've ever been," he says.
The diamond in the rough is the de facto independent state of the Republic of Somaliland, located north of Somalia. In existence since 1960, Somaliland remains relatively peaceful, but its independent status has yet to be recognized. Officials are hopeful a public figure of Clay's stature will shed more light on their difficult situation.
"In Somaliland, you really do have a sense of people who really want to help themselves, who want to do better, who want to effect change for themselves, that is very hopeful," Clay says.

The Missing - Casey Affleck Reveals Importance Of Boston Background
Casey Affleck has explained that his Massachussetts childhood was crucial for his role in Gone Baby Gone.
The Dennis Lehane adaptation opens in the UK on Friday June 6th and sees Affleck as earnest private investigator Patrick Kenzie, charged with the finding of a missing four-year-old girl.
And with his character contracted by the missing girl's family as a link to the criminal underworld in Boston, the Oscar-nominated actor explained that his own roots were essential for taking the role.
"I had the advantage of having grown up in Boston, as it plays an important part in the movie," he explained when asked about his research methods before taking the part.
"The character had to fit in because Ben had cast a lot of non-actors from Boston and I think I would have had trouble had I not actually been from there."
Amy Ryan was Oscar-nominated for her role as the child's drug addict mother and Affleck paid tribute to her ability to inhabit the unsympathetic character.
"With Amy, it's a testament to what a good actress she is because she's not from the area but she more than fitted in," he said.
"She ended up epitomising the community by the end of the movie."
Gone Baby Gone is Affleck's brother Ben's feature directorial debut and its leading man said it was "exciting" to work alongside a family member.
"I knew that he would do a really good job," explained Casey Affleck.
"And I knew he had good taste!" he joked at his own casting.
Gone Baby Gone is released on June 6th.
