“Fallen”, the new album from STRYPER, will be released worldwide on Friday, October 16 via Frontiers. The CD was tracked at SpiritHouse Recording Studios in Northampton, Massachusetts and will include a cover version of the BLACK SABBATH classic “After Forever”.
The “Fallen” title track can be streamed below. STRYPER guitarist/vocalist Michael Sweet says about the song: “‘Fallen’ is about Lucifer before he became Satan. It’s the story of how he got kicked out of Heaven. He tried to overthrow God and take over. The song talks about how beautiful he was. When he walked, there was music. He was the angel of worship and this incredibly powerful and beautiful being.”

01. Yahweh
02. Fallen
03. Pride
04. Big Screen Lies

“Yahweh” was co-written by SEVENDUST guitarist Clint Lowery.
The cover artwork for “Fallen”, which can be seen below, was designed by Stanis Decker, who worked with STRYPER on 2013’s “No More Hell To Pay”. STRYPER frontman Michael Sweet says: “We sent Stanis the concept about Lucifer being cast out of heaven and he sent us this amazing illustration, capturing the original idea perfectly.”
