Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the famous scripture that Stryper uses?

Answer: Isaiah 53:5

They put that scripture on all of the albums. You can find it right under the band's name.

Answer: Yes

Like Michael Sweet said once in an interview, "By his stripes we are healed."

3. According to Michael Sweet in an interview he did once, Stryper is an acronym for what?

Answer: Salvation Through Redemption Yielding Peace Encouragement and Rightesness

Mike made that comment in a concert video. I believe it was "Live From Japan".

4. Who are brothers in the group?

Answer: Michael and Robert

The Sweet brothers are Michael and Robert. Mike plays guitar and sings, and Robert is the drummer.

5. Besides playing drums, what else does Robert say he does for the band?

Answer: Visual timekeeper

In all the albums, Robert puts 'visual timekeeper' along with his credits as the drummer. That means he is in charge of keeping the band all in key, which makes sense seeing that he is the drummer and all of the songs' timing relies on his drumbeats and timing.

6. Who managed the group?

Answer: Mike and Rob's mom

Mrs. Sweet was the manager of Stryper. I must say, she did a fantastic job! Mike said he and Robert grew up in a very musical family.

7. What are the colors of Stryper?

Answer: Yellow and Black

Yellow and black, just like thier first album, "The Yellow and Black Attrack". Why they chose these colors, I do not know.

8. Finish this lyric: "Well speak of the devil, he's..."

Answer: no friend of mine

From the song "To Hell with the Devil", from the awesome album, "To Hell with the Devil". This is their best album in my opinion. This album really put them in the commercial market of music.

9. What album caused Stryper controversy and heat from the critics?

Answer: Against the Law

"Against the Law" was another favorite of mine, but this album caused some critics to look at Styper in a different view because they looked all grungy and unkept as opposed to all the make-up and flashy clothes they wore on previous albums. They also had more secular/commercial music and seemed to be straying from the Christian based songs. To me, they were just broadening their horizons, but to some people, it was the self-destruction of the band.

10. How does Robert play his drums?

Answer: sideways

I do not know the reason why Robert does this, but I have seen Stryper live and he plays with his side towards the audience. You can also see him playing like this in the videos they make.
