This allows the audience to see him without being obscured by the drumkit. Sweet began to use a sideways set-up in 1978 in order to improve his showmanship, and connect with the crowd. Sweet was also a major contributor to the group’s visual direction.

Sweet toured 2003 with a reformed Stryper. 2004 saw Stryper return to the studio to start work on Reborn, the August 2005 album. This was the first time Stryper had recorded original material in more than 15 years since 1990’s Against the Law. Murder by Pride, the Stryper album, was released in July
