Stryper’s Michael Sweet – EP049

Stryper has been a Growin' Up Rock part of my life since they
released the Yellow and Black Attack back in 1984. Singer and lead
guitarist Michael Sweet is an amazing singer and we feel criminally
underrated as a guitar player, so it is an honor to have him sit in
with us on today's podcast. We talk to Michael about some of his
earliest memories and influences, and we get into Stryper's latest
release "God Damn Evil."  Check out GUR co-host Sonny
Pooni's album review right here. Michael is the driving force
behind Stryper and he appears to be one of the hardest working men
in rock n roll, with solo projects, Stryper albums, touring, Sweet
and Lynch records, etc. When does this dude find the time to do
stuff, like you know SLEEP!?! To me, it seems like the music the
band has been releasing on the last two albums is as good, if not
better, than anything they released in their so called "Hey Day." I
say their "Hey Day" is today!! So grab your bible (just kidding, no
preaching here, this is a rock show) and turn it up while you check
out the latest episode of the Growin' Up Rock podcast. Help us out
