APRIL 30, 2009 - Stryper fans will have limited time to purchase "Murder by Pride" song-by-song up until July 21, 2009 when the full album will be released.

Here's how it will work: Beginning on Tuesday May 5, 2009 you can purchase a song per week on iTunes.  However, as each new song is released, the previous one will no longer be available until the full album is released.  So fans have a 7 day window to purchase each track from "Murder by Pride" beginning May 5.
