Fighting the 80's Mainstream

In a time when sex and drugs and rock and roll was in rock music everywhere, there's always those groups of people who will do what they can to fight the power and trust in God. One batch of these people are a band called Stryper, and their biggest hit album is the properly named "To Hell with the devil," a Christian metal album that made the band a bit bigger. Congrats for fighting the powers of evil, Stryper!

Track-by-track: I'm quite fond of the mysterious style of the 80 second opener, "Abyss," but the following track is one of the weaker title tracks and a generic 80's track overall. The album picks up again in the track after, "Calling On You." "Honestly" was the band's only top 40, being a power ballad and carrying great lyrics. "The Way", which talks about Christ being the way, is a much heavier and much better track than the previous five. The rest of the album follows with tracks ranging from great to decent.

Overall, this album starts off a little slow, but picks up later. Great album. Track ratings: 90, 70, 75, 75, 85, 90, 80, 80

Fight the trust in God!

I want candy, bubble gum, and taffy
Skip to the sweet shop with my sweetheart Sandy
Got my pennies saved so I'm her sugar daddy
I'm her Hume Cronyn and she's my Jessica Tandy, I want candy!

put it in a pile, split it with my bitty 50/50 down the line
kinda like close encounters of the cavity kind
im talkin liquorice kisses, talkin chocodile smiles

I want candy, i got a sugar tooth
put on your shin gaurds, Sandy, 'cause i wanna knock boots
lick my peppermint stick til' the lollipop droops
gumdrop that dont stop til' its licked knot loose

(ladies)
candy... candy...

i need candy bubble gum, and taffy
get in my way punk, you're gonna get ya ass beat, nasty
Do it till your dad sees, embarass your whole family
Just 'cause you came between a kid and his candy
I need candy, any kind'll do
Don't care if it's nutritious or "FDA approved"
It's gonna make me spaz like bobcats on booze
A hyperactive juice that only I can produce

And fuel a giant drill, bore straight into Hell
Releasing ancient demons from their sleep forever spell
So they can walk upon the earth, and get resituated
And Hock the diet pills that MC Pee Pants has created

I need candy, want some candy, eat candy til' I'm dead
I'll kill you for some candy, give me candy, candy head!
Where you keepin' all the candy?!
Who made you candy king?!
If you dont give me some candy, I will make the ladies sing!

(ladies)
Candy, in tha morning, candy on the way to school
Candy, at school, at lunch in the afternoon
Candy, its good, on your way home from school
Candy, at dinner,at dinner, in bed!

Mess up the mix, mix up the mess
Come on down yo, here's the address
At 6-1-2 Wharf Avenue,

Right next to, gentlemen's club.

I understand the low ratings on RYM, but I'd rather listen to a Christian album for messages besides quality. However, I will judge the album on both.

Track-By-Track: The album has a pretty cool start with "Afterlife," and "The Original." The latter track caries a fantastic message about you beiing you and not letting your soul become the devil's. "The War Inside" is a cooler track with a great message of fighting fleshly desires. The track has a cool rhythm and good production, but the same-pitched vocals that nearly sound paired with Auto-Tune may not impress some. "Restless" is a decent track talking about searching for the Lord. "Blinding Light" has a message of hope in Jesus our Savior. The rhythm's pretty good, and higher-pitched. "Selling the News" is all about disbelieving the lies of the world. It's rhythm tries to go a little bit more electric and the vocals are an attempt at rock. I enjoyed the track. "Thrive" is a humble track acknowledging man's weaknesses and thriving through the Lord's Holy Spirit. So the album stays at a level of mildly enjoyable tracks until the heavier track called "Dark Horses" comes, which relies on ecstatic yet noisy guitars. The track is about people who didn't choose their situation, but are rising above it. Cool message. The next song is "Souvenirs" which takes you back to your childhood days through nostalgic lyrics. The messages stay great throughout the whole album.

Overall, the album's musicianship is good, but the messages stay great. I recommend this album for anyone who's Christian or wants to teach their children great messages. 74 for quality. 100 for messages.
