This week’s Throwback Thursday episode revisits Episode 77, originally released on November 15th, 2021, featuring Stryper frontman Michael Sweet. As the first Christian heavy metal band to break into the mainstream, Stryper made history with their 1986 platinum-certified album To Hell with the Devil. Michael breaks down the creation of the album’s thunderous title track, sharing stories behind its bold message, blazing riffs, and the band’s unexpected rise to fame in a genre not known for preaching salvation.
