Reborn is the ninth release, and sixth album, from the Christian metal band Stryper, and the first full-length album of new material since Against the Law in 1990. Reborn was slated to be a Michael Sweet solo record, but after their reunion tour, Michael Sweet played it for the other members, at which time Oz Fox suggested it should be a Stryper record. So the other members came in and learned their parts from the original demos. Michael says in his autobiography, Honestly: My Life and Stryper Revealed, that he convinced Big3 Records, which had signed him for a solo release, to make it a Stryper record deal. So, Reborn became the first all-original Stryper record in 15 years.

The sound of the album is more contemporary compared to their previous records. It is also heavier and has influences of nu metal. The sound has been cited as more mature than their previous material, "less glam and more filling," according to one reviewer. This is the first album recorded by the band with new bass guitar player Tracy Ferrie. Reborn was released with a variety of cover art, depending on format and region. The alternate US cover art was created for record outlets (such as Christian bookstores) where the original cover art may have been perceived as too disturbing or offensive.

Reborn became a rare collectors' item instantly, since the first copies of the album have a technical mistake; songs 7-9 are played in the album in a different order than the one stated on the cover artwork. Big 3 Records plans to re-release the album with the correct order of songs.

"I.G.W.T." is a contemporary remake of the band's previous hit "In God We Trust" from the album of the same name.

Reborn is the fourth volume in a series of six novels known as The Adversary Cycle written by American author F. Paul Wilson. First published in March 1990 by Dark Harvest.

According to Manafest, the album is titled Reborn because it speaks to the "rebirthing" of his personal status of becoming an independent artist again, as well as the fact he decided to use the album to retrace his hip-hop origins and roots.

Reborn is a death metal band from Morocco. The band was founded in 2002, and after some initial local success became known more for political than musical reasons, when in April 2003 a Moroccan judge sentenced nine heavy metal musicians from Reborn and two other bands as well as five fans to jail time (between three months and one year) after they were found "in possession of skeletons, skulls, cobras, vipers and 'a collection of diabolical CDs.'" In April, a Casablanca court cut those sentences for three of the nine musicians to 45 days, and acquitted the eleven others.

According to Reda Zine, one of the founders of the Moroccan heavy metal scene, "We play heavy metal because our lives are heavy metal." The band performed at the 2003 Boulevard des Jeunes Musiciens music festival in Casablanca.
