Just a similar idea. Chained to a fire-y pit. The execution is way different. To me this looks like a Rob Rock album cover. Fits right in with Garden of Chaos and Holy Hell.

Ditto. Cool cover though.

I see the similarities now that it's been pointed out, but I don't think I would've picked up on it myself. Being that it's Stryper, I would have looked at it once and said "New Stryper, huh? Cool cover. Next".

Neither me. Just the concept revolving around the pit of Hell, which has a limited scope for images in a metal context. Agree on the Rob Rock comparison, though!

If anything, they're ripping off themselves...THWTD had muscle-angles, chains, fire, a demon, etc...

I think the Into the Pit creature resembles the Danzig skull logo.

Yup it sure was. In fact when I first saw the new album cover my thought was "This is Stryper's best yet" followed by "This should have been the cover for To Hell With the Devil" I love the cover I dont care if it looks like anyone elses
