  • I get made fun of for this sometimes, but Stryper is my favorite metal band!

  • this song should be played more freakin often

  • COOL!

    

  • Best Track of this album ! :)

  • How i love to be a christian...

    They almost know everything about Abstract Words like Pride, Faith, Honesty, and sure--Jesus Christ!

  • Ok, this totally proves that Christians rock!!!

  • I love the bass and the solo. Wish the singer would just shut up and overall rhythm is kind of slow. The worst part are the lyrics, they ruined the whole song.

  • @SerJahPhoto You clearly wouldn't know a good tune if it punched you in the mouth!

  • @953darkangel huh?

  • I hate unicorns.

    Jesus never asked Noah to round up two of 'em.

    ...and four leafed clovers are for fags and Catholics.

  • @mbm13213 is that why you have a tattoo of one on your a** ?

  • @Dudely1

    That's not a unicorn.

    That's 'My Little Pony."

  • @mbm13213 Christians don't condone Bigotry!

  • @953darkangel

    You shall know them by their fruit?

  • mbm...Real Christians don't condone Bigotry! This tune rocks! Respond to this video...

  • GREAT SONG!

    We've been on the outside looking in before

    We've lived on the inside with a closed locked door

    We've slept in the corners of the open floor

    We go round and round and round

  • Praise God man there is hope for me cause I like stryper. I like alot of rock bands music but there lyrics are for shit. at least strypers are christian lyrics.

  • I like this White Metal band

  • @TheXivir They aren't white metal...

  • glad they are making albums again. I got to the see them during the IN GOD WE TRUST TOUR; when they came through Columbus,Ohio. it was awesome.

  • Been 22 years! I'm getting so hyped up, can't wait for tomorrow night!!

  • Stryper is the best band in the universe!!!

    rock'n rool shall never end!!!!!!!!!!

  • @ThatDankGuy He's the rock that makes me roll!!! OH YEAH!

  • Wow! I saw them live once about 8 years ago in Boston in a little club. I really like this sound.

  • a melhor!!!!!,STRYPEEEEEEEEEEEEE­RRR!!!!

  • YESSS!! love it!! probs one of the the best songs of my life.

  • HELL FUCKIN YEA STYPERS BACK! were going "to hell with the devil" again!

  • LOL, I just stumbled across this band looking for another song, I think I just found a new favorite! I Love It When That Happens!!!

  • lol i know i'm gonna get hate post for saying this but honestly i thought that these finished

  • @MenOnBirthControl  Well then, that explains a lot!!

  • Comment removed

  • Stryper Rocken - Good ! ! !

  • @christanmusiczordude

    Slayer insults everything xD

  • Alright ppl, Actually the lead singer for slayer is catholic and was quoted by tom araya. Tom even replied to Metal: A Headbanger's Journey on the song "God Hates Us All as: "God doesn't hate. [But] it's a great fucking title."

  • dude on the cover looks like tiger woods...

  • wow great riffs

  • I remember these guys from the 80's and they kicked it back then.you want a good guitarist listen to Vince Gill or some of these country guys they are real good too

  • listen to the title track!

  • "murder by pride" what does that mean exactaly?

  • it means that someone killed someone and he is proud of doing that.(kidding:Pi don't know too but i love this song it METALS:P:P)

  • Pride is our biggest enemy. Pride can keep you from saying your sorry it can keep loved ones at odds for years because no one wants to be the one to give in. In this case I think the murder is someone going to hell because his pride kept him from seeking Christ.

  • @GULLYGUS15

    Dude you dont need to seek christ , for gods sake !! you need to find youreself , be individual without hurting you´re next. You can have pride , arent you for example proud of youreself ? is that bad ? If there is a God , then he is there to make you feel safe by knowing death is not the end , to take away the fear by simply believing in the good you have done , you have shared and the good you have made possible .

  • @snakeace0 Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. Jesus died on the cross to make it possible for humans to go to heaven not to make us feel safe. Jesus is a saviour not a security blanket. Without Jesus' death we would have no hope of eternal life in heaven. It is only by grace we have been saved.

  • @GULLYGUS15

    Then be grateful for being individual , i dont think jesus would have wanted you to solve youre youre problem by seeking him. Start being independent .

  • @snakeace0 I think the independence your referring to is the same pride STRYPER speaks of in Murder By Pride. I have no need for independence when it comes to God because I can't get to heaven on my own I am dependant on Christ through his death. That's the only way to get there.

  • @snakeace0 I also think Jesus wants us to come to HIM with our problems. Jesus said trust in me and worry about nothing. When you put your faith in Jesus your problems don't go away but you have the strength to face them. If God is for you who can be against you?

  • @GULLYGUS15 An allknowing god knows this so why create humans just to doom them to a hell he himself created just because they used their free will that he gave them? Free will and an allknowing god is also kinda weird because how can you have a free will if god allready knows what you are gonna do? Religion.... what a joke...

  • @snakeace0 Being good can't get you into heaven being proud of yourself won't get you into heaven either. The bible says that it is through faith we have been saved not of ourselves it is the gift of God not of works lest anyone should boast. Ephesians 2:8.

    Seeking Christ is the only way. Everything we do for ourselves is meaningless only what we do for Christ matters in eternity. So why should we be proud of ourselves?

  • @GULLYGUS15 i think its not the best idea to just seek heaven , if you think about it ,then its kinda egocentric .I am worrying and working on my "here and now" and if theres anything i would seek , then its my peace of mind why dont you just seek the love of youre live , have children and let THEM inspire you and not the bible .sure the faith in heaven makes life easier , but would you seriously prefer an eternal life in heaven , than a loving family ? a wife and children you can always rely on

  • @snakeace0 Of course I would want a nice family on earth and to have all the riches the world has to offer. Who wouldn't? Would I prefer it to eternal life in heaven? Noooo. I would give up all the pleasures of life if I had to, to get into heaven. Where your heart is there will your treasure be also.

  • @snakeace0 peace of mind comes from witch craft meaning basically peace of mind to do witch craft, it's were the term peace came from when hippies used to say it and didn't know any better

  • @GULLYGUS15 yep you're right, I think that's the reason for the album's name, too (and for all lyrics).

  • @GULLYGUS15 pride is also one of the reasons why satan stood against god

  • @21Bouncer That's true only he  wasn't Satan then he was Lucifer. and it's God but other then that you got it right.

  • @21Bouncer can I ask is lucifer written in the bible and given to the angel that stood against god, Just wondering. Off topic satan means adversary in english

  • @21Bouncer lucifer was 1rst written in Isaiah chapter 14 vers 12-15. Most Bilbles ommit this part then his 1rst apperence where he's called Satan is in 1Chronicles chapter 21 verse 1. from then on he was know as satan in Job, psalms,zechariah,Matthew,Mark,­Luke ,John,Acts,Romans,1rst & 2nd Corinthians,1rst & 2nd thessalonians 1rst timoth & revelation.

  • @21Bouncer lucifer was 1rst written in Isaiah chapter 14 vers 12-15.

  • @GULLYGUS15

    Whatever....

  • @GULLYGUS15 Well said.

  • Pride of life, lust of the eye, lust of the flesh is what keeps man away from God. Pride, a built up ego, in order to draw near God, you need to let your guard and submit yourself to Him but if you don't, there's not way you can get close to Him for it is written: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble." 1 Peter 5:5

  • Maybe that God is the "murder by pride" who takes away our pride so we can be honest and humble. And to show Him and others our real identity. Pride can be like a mask or disguise that we have, and God wants to take that away (murder it) :P Thats my theory :)

  • it means that by letting pride rule your life you are somewhat killing yourself

  • love this track

  • Stryper nice comback

  • i love venom bathory heaps of satanic black metal but have always loved stryper i bought this digipak and its killer full of feeling keep it going guys.

  • Thanks for posting. Beautiful lirycs, so powerful and true. Pierce the heart!!!

  • my fave new school stryper song

  • I got it free & autographed at the Meet N' Greet in Ashville.

  • The Album Murder By Pride

  • Is Tim Gaines back to the band?

  • They are all back all 4 orginial members. I saw them live in Toronto in September for 25 year tour.

  • @edrey20 Yup!  Very happy to say!

  • Another; Great, New Rocken Tune by - "Stryper" !

  • Saw them last night at "Life Fest" in Raleigh. I got one of their bibles thrown to me, even though I probably won't read it it's still a cool thing to be able to say I have one. When they started playing the intro riff to this song I though I was going to die of being around such pure awesomeness.

  • awesome5 n55e5w5 5song

  • epic, gonna see them in january=) utrecht.

  • of all the old bands making a comeback STRYPER sounds the best !!!!!!

  • Then you have not heard about enough old bands :P

  • @rustykangaroo RATT'S new album rocks but I can't think of the name of it

  • sweet I saw these guys last night they are even better live (still lol)

  • yea i was with you lol and they were awsome

  • good times....lol

  • Hey i want to hear from someone from the Detroit area im trying to get these guys to DTe music theatre they said to write letter to the palace drive and put attention Booking someone help i cant do this by myself lets get these guys book before the Mt Clemens Show on the 25th Pine Knob to me the need a big audience and you can help this cause. Write them know

  • Another good song so far my second favorite the guitars rock in this one.

  • just saying, that stryper broke up because they were making those mistakes, that's why they are back, they found themselves again

  • Just wanted to say that I ordered the CD today because of these uploads on youtube. A somewhat political comment :)

  • He's here because he is the"wicked lost". God's word says Satan is here to steal, kill, and destroy. That is because there is no hope for him. He wants to do as much damage possible before his time is up. His children do like their father.

  • It is no more rational to believe Nothing blew up to become Everything, then, what I believe by faith, that God the one who was, and is, and forever will be, created the universe. That aside, Christian music is a testimony of our need for God. Not a statement that we have never done wrong. And Stryper's music is what I like. If you dont,....why are you here? Troll much?

  • Sorry SlayerRules66 but it's very safe to say that Stryper bows to no man and never will. Tremendous album. Lots of screaming and scorching solos combined with excellent harmonies. All the songs are very cool and most of them caught me off guard either, with me staring at the stereo in awe or, especially with their ballads, nodding in my 'that was really good' way. Strong effort Stryper! Our applause shows in your sales increasing.

  • Slayer sucks ass. Micheal Sweet has more talent in his pinky than everybodsy in Slayer combined.

  • Alas, the evil one is defeated once again and lowers himself to mindless insults. Don't worry, Repent to God and he will forgive. Don't let your evil pride get in the way.

  • Maybe you should just BUZZ off then!

  • Indeed. Compare an Oz Fox solo to a Kerry King solo. One has talent, one has too much whammy. Compare Michael's voice to Tom Ayara's (I think that's right), Michael blows him away. But Dave Lombardo is actually a good drummer, so is Robert. Plus their lyrics aren't all "Hail Satan."

  • Um...Slayer aren't devil worshippers, or Satanists. Do a bit of research before you post. Oh, Kamelot kicks Stryper's ass, but I love 'em both.

  • I never said Slayer were devil worshippers.

  • who the fuck cares, they're a hundred times better than this fucking horse shit.. its obvious stryper is a ripoff of Slayer, and their 80's album is an obvious depiction of KISS.. christians will try to brainwash (or be brainwashed) any way they can possibly.. having absorbed this bullshit for my first years, im glad i was one of those who chose to think..

  • my fuckin ass.. Kerry King fucking TEARS this faggot first of all, listen to Kerry Kings solos, not like you people actually will listen to this retard.. If you actually LISTENED to Kerry King's solo, wow..too much WHAMMY? ARE YOU SERIOUS!? There's no such thing as "too much whammy" in metal.. and its ARAYA you retard, you spelled it wrong purposely.. Michael sings like that faggot from Dragonforce, and Tom Araya's voice is PURE METAL. THATS WHAT METAL SOUNDS LIKE, YOU CLOWN! Robert blows@drums

  • Oh, you caught me...I spelled Tom's name wrong on purpose.

  • not to mention you must be tone deaf considering it takes about a years practice to do Oz Foxes "solo" and takes pure talent and experience to sound ANYTHING like Kerry King..

  • Whatever, the solo in "Raining Blood" for example. it's so sloppy.

  • "God made the whammy bar for people who don't know how to solo." -Dave Mustaine, a much better guitarist than Kerry King and Oz Fox.

  • LOL isnt that hypocritical you were just worshipping and praising oz fox now you're neglecting him..

  • No, I'm just stating that Dave Mustaine was better than both King and Oz Fox.

  • well no shit ?

  • @InAGaddaDaVida29 Oz Fox's solo in this song is terrible! Not sure why he went for this. I'm not a big fan of Stryper but his stuff in the 80s was technically really good. Maybe he's lost his speed? Dave Mustaine rules - his riffs are incredible. Solo wise, none of them can touch John Petrucci (whether or not you think Dream Theater are real metal or not!)

  • Petrucci is amazing, and everyone else in Dream Theater is very talented.

  • Are you serious? Just because hes not playing fast dosnt mean he cant. Its about the melody jackass. John Petrucci is technically really good, but im just not to into his music

  • @markcguitar hey stupid! havent you heard that its not all about shredding like shit, you need a real melodic solo sometimes! and we know everyone in the band, so be talkin shit bout them!

  • @planetxodus duuuude, chill! I love Oz Fox's playing and I love melodic solos and hate shred without melody, it's just my personal opinion that I don't like the solo in this particular song - I know he can do better e.g. In God We Trust. No big deal. ...and mind your language! ;-)

  • so i dont get it...y argue liek little bitches about what metal is? simply metal is defined to the 80's... and slayers solo work btw is a sloppy form....king can riff, but not leads too well...jeff is a better leads player...

  • lmao not really....technically metal was born from blues n jazz...and hard rock came before metal in essence..i mean nuge n such from the 70's...yet most these thrash and metal bands u call true metal was 80's based..alogn with other metal bands of different forms..hair,glam,etc....meh..i prefer all metal from the 80's and early 90's....mid 90's to now..well is nothing mear of shit really...detubed bashing and repeative drumming....

  • @ReRemixedLive

    Dude, Slayer is way uncool man! Sorry, just putting my opinion out here. Cool if you like em'.

    "God Hates Us All" ? What kind of junk is that??

    I wanna see Slayer lay that at the foot of the cross!

    I actually had some dude tell me that Slayer where practicing Catholics based on an interview with Araya. :D!!

    Slayer Catholic?

  • cant say i agree with you at all lol, god hates us all speaks a lot of truth. Naturally, people like you just take it the way it seems. LISTEN to the lyrics, listen to what it ACTUALLY means rather than consider the title.. Tom Araya said he believes in a higher power and thinks we aren't here by accident. If he's christian, i really dont care lol he can do whatever the hell he wants. If you want MY opinion? this music is just an attempt to kill off a genre that goes rejects biblical nonsense

  • @ReRemixedLive

    God speaks ALL Truth, not just a lot. I don't care if Araya says he "believes" in a higher power. Duh! How philosophical!

    Even the Devil "believes" in God. The lack of relationship and commitment to Jesus is evident in the lyrical content of Araya's writings. I don't think Stryper's goal is to kill off anything. Slayer is far more popular and if anything, it's the other way around.

  • You're missing an entire point here.. Do you actually THINK somebody floats around up in the sky and provided us with all of this? There's substantial evidence of more than 300 million years of life on this planet, yet your religion, your "belief" claims that the world has only been around since that book was written YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE OUT OF A BOOK! Why do you obey what some other guy says is the truth? because everybody else does? I guess some people are just simple minded like that

  • @ReRemixedLive

    Notice in my last comment that God speaks all Truth, not man, not everybody else. Not even Christianity speaks theTruth, only God does. You are not absolutely sure that the earth is 300 million years old. See how you last questions can be aimed right back at you?

    If that's the definition of simple mindedness, than you are just as guilty. God has clearly put His fingerprints on everything. Materialism and evolution is not science, it's actually a religion all it's own.

  • I don't know why you people even have to WORRY about what happens! It's going to happen to everybody anyway no body can truly say if there's a God or not... NOBODY KNOWS! YOU DON'T KNOW! I DON'T KNOW! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO SPREAD THIS SHIT? NO BODY IS JUSTIFIED..

  • @ReRemixedLive

    I'm not worried about what will happen, not entirely anyway. We do live in a whole different world entire different than what I grew up in. In this world I must now raise a daughter, and it can be a rather frightening one.

    Those who are in Christ Jesus are completely justified, provided that they remain in Him.

    Habakkuk 2:4--"Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.

  • @ReRemixedLive

    And regarding the last comment I made where I shared a scripture from the Bible, it talks about pride.

    What is written on the arms of the guy for this video? Pride is one of the biggest follies of man, but It's actually considered a STRENGTH in American culture!

    The most convincing way for me to "prove" God to people is also the most difficult way. I would have to share my experience when God wants you to have your own personal relationship with Him.

  • uhh why dont you stop believing what a Darwin said? He was a geologist that is made out to be a biologist. He studied rocks not life. He had no idea what the hell he was talking about. its like somebody who has a major in WWII history trying to teach a lesson about the Romans. Obviously he doesn't what the hell he was saying.

  • This is the part where you fall down. Christians never said they didn't sin, they just know when they are wrong and repent for forgiveness.

  • wasp and stryper never toured together. u are referring to a hit parader magazine cover , it had nothing to do with an actual tour....wasp toured with the following bands in the 80's - Metallica, Armored St, Iron Maiden, Kiss, Raven, Slayer, Malice, Accept, Metal Church and Black Sabbath when it was just Tony Iommi.

    Stryper did tours with Hurricane, TNT, Loudness, Jetboy, Rough Cutt, Ratt, Vixen in the 80's.

  • Good luck with Satan in the next life. Christ Saves! You need to read a little. Every encounter Christ has with Satan in the bible, Christ smoked him. So you want to stick with a loser. May the Father turn you to Christ and Bless you!

  • Really? how do you know? because it tells you that a book written by man nice touch...might as well put your faith in a tree.

  • Prove that Christ didn't exist. No other figure in history is covered more, both in Christian and Traditional historical text. Yes, it was written in a book, but so was all the other history we read. So that never happened either? Your point? Look its easy to live against God's rule, no discipline involved what so ever. Music wise, Slayer lakes musical direction. Stryper brought something new to Heavy Metal, God. No group has done that as well as Stryper.

  • yes, Oz is on it. All orignal except for the bass player.

  • its all the orginal members right? oz fox is still with the band

  • man they really let Tracie Ferry shine on this cd

  • This is all of their albums rolled into one (I don't count ATL, BTW). KInda raw like Y&BA, catchy hooks like Soldiers, harmonies like IGWT and that hard sound from Reborn. It's definitely on my bucket list.

  • Just picked this gem up! This is one cd that is best played LOUD!!!!! These guys still have it! Go out and buy it...like NOW!

  • I like the amazing guitar tunes here...brings back some awesome memories... will def buy this album..WTG STRYPER!!!!!

  • actually the word fm (christian radio station) used to be really big on Stryper. due to their recent album. i think they will play play them again.

  • I have always wanted to make a radio station that played christian metal 24/7 I love strypers new cd its very creative.

  • TRY STICKAM TO PLAY CHRISTIAN MUSIC

  • Im there in Ft.Lauderdale to see Stryper. STRYPER ROCKS.

  • me too!!! woooh!!

  • strypre's new album kinda loses steam on its second half, but the first half is quite amazing, just what I wanted to hear. not a full-blown stryper album? ok. a disappointment? not quite so. solid tunes, some boring tunes, who cares? this is no Soldiers Under Command, but I'm glad the heroes of my teenage years, or at least Mike & Oz, are still alive and making music. Yeah!

  • Folks please show stryper your support by buying the music, even if just a few tunes from Apple. Michael's family and all the guys will appreciate the support!

  • well I'm not religious at all, but I've never been put off by the lyrics, I just like the music

    saw them in the 80s live in London and they were awesome

  • i think what the reason they where shooting for in the lyrics was that no matter how much we have of good luck charms they dont work its god who is controlling our life so why look for stupid stuff on earth when we have god to lead our way

  • I also love the beat and vocals to this song...I think this album will rock...I am not sure I know that the message is that they are trying to relay in this song...anyone care to post their opinion? Thanks!!

  • Hello, fans!!!

    Please post lyrics of this song.

    I need it for the covering..

  • Comment removed

  • F*** your negative oppinions and just listen to music!

  • stryper is just the best!! This album sounds great!! I've followed stryper since 85. It's nice to know there is still a band who writes good decent lyrics with all of the nasty and immoral shit out there. God bless!

  • What a great Comeback of a Great and Respectful Band!!!  Thats For you Scott Ian Lol

  • is robert gonna be pictured on the album?and not the one who replaced robert while he was out?

  • I am buying the music to help support Michael and his kids. I think we should all show our support.

  • exactly right dude. I uploaded these songs so the people that cant buy them can still listen to it. If you can buy it, you should. Im paying money for the songs. When the album comes out, everyone should buy it.

  • Is there a place now to buy this song?? I need it and I missed it on iTunes...do you know anywhere I can buy it before the album comes out?

  • Comment removed

  • You're brave for uploading the new Stryper songs as they become available on iTunes. I look forward to hearing the rest as the weeks progress to the July 21 release date of Murder By Pride.

  • gotta love the bass on 2:53 - 3:06

  • real good bass jammin indeed!!

  • their back to their 80's sounds, good job guys. love it.

  • Stryper is the best band ever! and i have all of there new songs well not yet but i will!
