That is incorrect, they are going to be doing a series of cover albums, covering entire albums. First up is Mercyful Fate's Don't Break The Oath |

| Sadly, the VENOM cover album would probably sell better. Not that that is a sufficient reason to do it .... |

| "Blackout" is about being drunk and having sex with some chick and not remembering it. An odd choice for a Christian band, to say the least. |

If you listen to something and watch something... What is the difference in playing it onstage or recordong it in the studio ? One is the same as the other. In some manner, you are endorseing it ? correct ? If you feel that it is okay for a christian to watch a horror movie or listen to Forbidden. Then have an issue with Stryper recording a Scorpions song. I don't get it.
Have you ever seen a christian wearing a NIKE shirt ? Nike pays hundreds of millions of dollars yearly in endorsements to various pro athletes who live a lifestyle far worse than getting drunk, having sex, and forgetting the whole occurence later on.
Stryper covering Priest, Maiden, or Scorpions is no different than a church member wearing a jesey by their favorite sports team.
I am kewl with you having a personal conviction about something, but picking and choosing one's justifcations and thus, judging another, is quite lame._________________ |

| ToB didn't say they were wrong for doing anything. He just said it was an odd choice based on the subject matter of that particular song.

That may be possible, but going by the flavor of the majority of his posts. I went there. I perhaps may have jumped the gun. If I offended anybody, forgive me. Regardless. I stand by my opinion on the subject.

So they really are going to do a covers album? Hmmm, interesting.

I could see how that song might ruffle a few feathers in Stryper's Christian fan base. Just the fact that they are covering secular songs altogether might upset some folks. Ultimatum can attest to that.

Imagine if Stryper decided to cover 'Flying High Again' or 'Mr. Cowley' or 'Suicide Solution' |
