Original Pressing

To Hell with the Devil is Stryper's third album, released on October 24, 1986 on Enigma Records. Singles from the album, "Calling on You", "Free" and "Honestly" were popular mainstream hits playing on radio stations, as well as MTV, in regular rotation giving the band much needed broad appeal. When "Honestly" peaked at No. 23 on the Top 40 charts, it cemented Strypers place in history.  To Hell With The Devil  went on to receive a Grammy Award nomination as was certified RIAA platinum on January 6, 1988, selling more than 2 million copies. The album is regarded by most to be one the most influential Christian rock albums of all time. When Enigma, the band's record label, first release To Hell With the Devil, the original artwork, cause an extreme amount of controversy. Call it timing, luck or divine intervention, the publicity Stryper received was a welcomed addition to an already chart topping album.The original artwork Angel Artwork depicted four angels, resembling the band members throwing the devil into a fiery pit. The cover was changed for Benson Distribution, the distributor for the Christian market, who carried this alternative black cover with the Stryper logo and the red album title in the center.
