is there any band/bands sounding almost identical to Stryper? Almost
as if it were another Stryper album?

Thanks in advance

Dimmu Borgir.
The first two Bride albums were Stryper knockoffs. Well, at least
vocally, they were. Bride couldn't hang with Stryper for musical chops
back then.

Shout, and, later, Magdallan were musically similar to Stryper, but Ken
Tamplin sounds nothing like Michael Sweet.

I know that the remnant of Stryper (minus Michael Sweet) formed a group
called Sin Dizzy. I have no idea what they sounded like, but I imagine it
was somewhat similar. I don't know if they are still putting out music.

Take care,

Thanks for the info.

Is Holy Soldier exactly like Strper or more bluesy like Whitecross?

What about Acer?

Which bands have the same melodic hooks and great sing alongs without being bluesy?

Whitecross is also an RAC band, so make sure you get the right one....
