Somewhat similar, but I imagine they're going for a look similar to the original cover art for THWTD.

Maybe, but Ultimatum's has an actual color palette, and isn't an orange and blue movie poster.

I agree. Ultimatum's is way better.

Agreed. Stryper's looks like it belongs on some cheesy Euro-metal release (a genre I also love).

Awesome cover!

Similar concept I guess. Different artistic approach. Looks like something Rob Rock or Narnia would use.

Regardless, Stryper were the first Christian band to do an album of heavy metal covers, so they have that going for them.

Scott's sarcasm is showing again. Very Happy

Euro metal cover nails it. Makes me think of Edguy.

Great cover art!

The Orange & Teal color palette strikes again! Is it a Stryper album or a sequel to Underworld?

OH the Irony...really uncanny indeed, after all... Todd McFarlane (SPAWN) did it first Very Happy

Don't tell me he's NOT the original lol!

Well I believe the original "Too Hell With The Devil" cover was around before McFarlane did SPAWN ?

We're talkin' about chains, shackles, blazing fire and that raging Hercules pose..To Hell With The Devil was a whole lotta different concept

Similar concept in a sense, but they are nothing alike.

yeah....Too Hell With The Devil has more in common than the one EmoElmo posted.....The Stryper one has color coming from a hole. The Spawn one looks like the color is coming from it's penis ?

I still think the new Stryper cover belongs on a stratovarius album.

Great Cover I think.Much better than the cover art for Second Coming.Hopefully the music inside matches.

That was pretty awful. Don't know what they were thinking.

In an interview recently Michael Sweet said this upcoming album could be considered To Hell Withe Devil part 2...the album that should have happened instead of In God We Trust. The new art work does echo that idea....

Their next cover album: The Orange and Teal Attack?

Not keen on the overused colour scheme either, but I like the image itself. And anything's gotta be better than the Second Coming cover.
