STRYPER recently released its cover of BOSTON's "Peace of Mind" — featuring a guest appearance by BOSTON guitarist Tom Scholz — via iTunes.

In an interview with Metal-Rules.com, Michael Sweet stated about the upcoming CD, "The new album will be much more into a melodic direction. There will be lots of melodies, guitar solos, stacked vocal harmonies and high screams it does sound a lot like the stuff what we used to do in the past. I'm sure that old fans will be pleased when they hear it."

A limited-edition authorized STRYPER 25th anniversary coffee-table book is in the works that will feature never-before-published pictures, reflections from the band, and rare collectibles from all over the world.

STRYPER's most recent CD, "Reborn", is available on Big3 Records. "Reborn" marked STRYPER's first complete studio release of original material in over a decade, since 1990's "Against the Law", and features 10 original tracks as well a new version of the previously released track "In God We Trust". The album was recorded in Massachussetts at Blue Jay Studio, Mixed Emotions, and singer Michael Sweet's home studio.
