To Hell with the Devil is the Grammy Award nominated fourth release, and third full-length album, by the Christian metal and Glam metal band Stryper, released in 1986. It was both the first Contemporary Christian and Christian metal album to achieve Platinum status, selling over one million copies. It remains the best-selling Christian metal album of all time.
The album was listed at #88 in the 2001 book, CCM Presents: The 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music. The album was the only Heavy Metal album on the list. Ian Christe, author of the heavy metal history book Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal (2003), mentions To Hell with the Devil in his book as one of the landmarks of the glam metal movement. Throughout 1987, both music videos for Free and Honestly ranked #1 on Dial MTV, the nightly MTV list of most requested videos. The video for "Calling on You" also reached #5 on the show.
The original cover of To Hell with the Devil caused a torrent of controversy, and was soon changed to an all-black design. The original artwork depicted "four long haired angels throwing the devil into a fiery pit. The cover was then changed on later pressings to a basic black cover" with the Stryper logo and the album title in the center.
As the band started to record the album, Tim Gaines left the band. He was replaced by bassist Matt Hurich. That failed, so "session" bassist Brad Cobb took Tim's place while recording this album. However, before the tour for it began, Tim Gaines "rejoined" the band.
