STRYPER's MICHAEL SWEET: 'I Hate It When Bands Start Replacing Their Members'

In a brand new interview with The Swerve Magazine, STRYPER frontman Michael Sweet was asked how it has been working with the same guys in the band for most of the group's three-decade-plus-long career. He responded: "Well, I mean, I'll be honest. I'm not going to lie to anybody. It's not easy. We have our issues. There are four strong personalities in this band. I'm the most boisterous. I'm the guy that talks a lot and people hear from the most, but I think if you heard from the other three guys, you would know exactly what I'm talking about. Everybody has opinions, and we're not on the same page many times. We don't see eye to eye. We have our arguments and our times of frustrations with one another."

He continued: "We made a pact to stay together. When we decide that we shouldn't stay together, that's when STRYPER will end, because I don't want to continue on without Robert [Sweet, drums], or without Tim [Gaines, bass], or without Oz [Fox, guitar]. I think that it's important that the four of us stay together, or it's not STRYPER. At that point in time, if we're not getting along we need to call it quits, and not replace each other.

"I hate it when bands start replacing their band members. You know what? It degrades the band and the brand. It's not fair to fans.

"I understand in a situation where, let's say, somebody passes away, and the other three or four guys want to continue, and they had the blessing of that person. That's a different situation, but what I'm referring to is all the bickering. You've got four guys in the band, and they don't get along, so they all go off and do their own version of that band. I mean, I just think that's a joke, a complete joke."

STRYPER's latest album, "Fallen", entered The Billboard 200 chart at position No. 43 with first-week sales of just over 10,000 units — nearly all from pure album sales. The set follows the No. 35-peaking "No More Hell To Pay", which was released in 2013.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week based on multi-metric consumption, which includes traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).

"Fallen" was released on October 16, 2015 via Frontiers. The CD was tracked at SpiritHouse Recording Studios in Northampton, Massachusetts and includes a cover version of the BLACK SABBATH classic "After Forever".

Интересное мнение. Но очень уж категоричное. Например, ушёл Оззи из Саббат, пришёл Дио. Разве плохо получилось?

Он наверное имеет ввиду группы , типа RATT и т.д. которые не могут разобраться с авторскими правами на названия и песни , ну и QUITE RIOT в пример.

"Это снижает уровень доверия к бренду коллектива"

Вот так прочитаешь и не поймешь, кто говорит: музыкант или бизнесмен. Хотя по сути он прав: старенькие музыканты так цепляются за бренды, что это давно уже стало просто смешно.

Насчет Дио в Саббат: мне вот такой Саббат нравится больше на порядок, но я согласен с Закком (кажется, он это сказал) - им надо было бы сразу же после этой замены назваться иначе, а так возникла путаница. Я говорю: мне нравится Саббат, а многие думают, что мне нравится блеяние Оззи.

Но иначе они назвались "немного" попозже=)

В этом и проблема. В том числе, с этим сраным залом славы.
