Stryper frontman Michael Sweet has told Sleaze Roxx in a new interview that the band will record a new studio album in 2019, after releasing God Damn Evil this year. The guitarist/vocalist is also planning on issuing the follow-up to his 2016 solo album, One Sided War. Other releases in the can include another collection of cover songs from bands that inspired Stryper and helped to shape the band's sound.

Michael Sweet said: "I think you'll see a new original album which we will record in 2019. I will also be doing another solo album which will be the follow up to One Sided War. We have some ideas for songs for the follow up to The Covering. I'd like to do, some more Priest, I like to do another Boston song, another Maiden song, something from Thin Lizzy and maybe a Styx song. I'd like to do Yesterday & Today. They're not called Y&T. We used to do David Bowie. I'd love to cover something by David Bowie. We will absolutely do another album of Stryper re-records. We're one of those bands that will get to it, but it's just a matter of time until we make it happen. I'd love to record some more 'classic' songs with Perry playing on them. It's just a matter of finding the time, but we have to do another The Covering album and another re-record, with stuff from In God We Trust and a couple things from Against The Law and maybe even tap into stuff from Reborn and Murder By Pride."
