The LA metal movement emerged in the 1980s, and Stryper was one of the bands that dominated the Christian metal style. Stryper's debut album, "Soldiers Under Command," released in August 1985, was a long seller and won a gold disc, although it did not chart well in the U.S., peaking at No. 84 on the U.S. album chart. The album was released in August 1985, and although it did not chart well, it was a long seller and earned a gold disc. In conjunction with the album's release, the band toured North America and made its first visit to Japan. The concert at Tokyo Postal Savings Hall on July 8 of the same year was recorded for video and broadcast, and was broadcast on MTV and PBS in the United States. This live album is a live recording of the broadcast and includes the encore. Vocalist Michael Sweet sings in a high-tone voice, and the ensemble is dramatic with Oz Fox's high-tension guitar playing, reproducing the characteristics of this band in a live performance.This is a rare archival release with the original members!
