I don't like this no-name band or their unheard-of song, I just think it's funny that Youtube now displays ackcsc's bitchy argument with that dude who trolled the fuck out of him.
If the platinum-selling and twice-gold-selling band Stryper is a "no-name band", then I am Abraham Lincoln.
Platinum: To Hell with the Devil
Gold: Soldiers Under Command, In God we Trust
Tell me, sir, have you, who would know anything regarding music,ever written an album that sold over a million units? No platinum record in your name, hmm? How about half that? A gold record?
What, no gold album, either?
THEN SHUT UP AND QUIT RIPPING ON STRYPER, YOU DAUNTLESS JERK!
@tanukihat UR A FRIGIN IDIOT MORRON... THIS WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST BANDS EVER.... MILLIONS OF SOLD OUT SHOW ALL OVER THE EARTH... BILLIONS OF HITS ON YOUTUBE... SHUT THE FUCK UP ... I DK IF YOU LIKE IT JUST FUCK OFF IF YOU DONT BITCH
@tanukihat that's cool if you don't like them, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I like how you say they are a no-name band, but in fact are very popular in the christian music scene as well as heavy metal. Maybe you should pop out of the shell more and listen to bands that aren't "well known".
this is truly 1 of the great bands of the 80'snew album is steller, they dont push religion,they r positive. sad and tough even preachers were against them back in the day. this band stands for something and they can play with the best of them.crue,vanhalen. even if they werent a christian band they still would of made it big. when your good your good.
playing the LA strip aint easy,I REMEMBER when guns n roses opened for them.anybody who doesnt like them has never seen them live.
Because the drums are designed to project forward. I think the better question is why? So we can all see the gayhole behind - or in this case beside - the kit?
No, not really. I spend my days pointing out dumb shit on the interwebs. And this has always looked stupid. If the guy wants everyone to see him, he should have been a singer. Or maybe the accordian.
@PolyQuasi umm you might not be the best to speak about the drums... obviously you don't know what the hell you are talking about and should probably keep that to yourself. the drums are not made to project forward. they are arranged to make playing all the different percussion components easy for one person to play. obviously drums are loud no matter which way you face them and any performance worth showing up to has mics on the kit.
Arrangement and design are two different things. You sure you know what you're talking about? It's the same arrangement only sideways, in this case. You can't tell me an kit facing the wall will not sound different from a kit set-up, you know, um, practically. Sure it's loud, but there ARE acoustics involved, even on a miked kit.
But all this is moot and none of which addresses the simple fact that Mr. Strypey Spandex here does purely out of narcissism. Why not face them backwards? Off to the side?Upside down? Wait. Scratch the last one.
@ackcsc cool down guys ;-) we don't need to argue 'bout this and that...not to forget that music is all about expression and artistry so no matter what their style and way of playing let's respect it. this is what it's all about...ROCK!!!
Whoa--you're an ICON fan? SO am I! "Night of the Crime " is the album I own. I got it from a college radio station that threw it out. But this is STRYPER's video, so I'll shut up about other bands. I luv this song. I saw Stryper -- 2009 in Cleveland in a cozy cave of a club called "House of Blues." They were in rare form, playing exceptionally well for Robt. being under the weather with a cold. God rocks!
If I'm not mistaken, this was @ The Syria Mosque in Pittsburgh Pa??? I was @ that show and I remember the ceiling tiles being out above the stage and that song that we never heard before......I was a photographer then....front row.Super cool vid!!
this was recorded in sept 84 - well that would mean Yellow and Black Attack was already out but you're saying they were calling themselves ROXX REGIME here...huh ?
i am a big stryper fan, and I never head this song until I saw it here posted on YouTube. Great song!!
I am kinda suprised Stryper never really brought that song into any of their new albums as a remake or in any concerts recently. For such a good song, I wish they would. Stryper always will be my favorite heavy metal band.
wow, this looks super rare! There stage looks way too big for the venue, lol...is the drummer's kit to the side cuz it doesn't fit the other way? In one of their vids its like this too...Jose, the drummer from Incubus also sets his set like this, kinda funny...
Hey there. Drummer Robert Sweet has always had his kit turned side on. He says it's just a visual thing as fans don't normally get to see much of the drummer.
Amazing song!!!

Because the drums are designed to project forward. I think the better question is why? So we can all see the gayhole behind - or in this case beside - the kit?
PolyQuasi 2 years ago
The kit is miked so it doesn't matter which direction it is facing. So yes, it is simply so we can see the gayhole behind the kit.
The bigger question is why do you give such a toss? Surely you actually have a life!?
