When Road came out, Alice said he had another album in the can that would really surprise people. This must be it. Definitely looking forward to this.

I am psyched for this release and preordered the box set with a T-Shirt, poster, cd, and 7” single with 2 bonus tracks not on the album…
Not a bad price at $51.99 on Amazon…only 5000 of the box sets so that’s why I preordered it….

First release..Black Mamba

this should really stoke everyone up and leave you drooling for more.

An ok track....I'll get the cd after it hits the bargain bins.
I do like the early Alice Cooper lps....especially Love It To Death and Killer.... but Cooper's solo things never clicked with me. Too silly and not 'serious' rock imho , but I understand why people might like them.
Good to see the other guys are back to do a proper Alice Cooper band lp....but I do wonder how Glen Buxton will make a 'special appearance'?

I hope the rest of the album isn't as plodding. Hopefully, they're not too old to play something a little faster.

They might have built a song around one of his old drum tracks, either used or unused.

He was the original guitar player.

He was the original guitar player.

Oh well.... Same idea though. Kevin Dubrow re-recorded everything but Randy Rhoads' guitar parts when he released QR The Randy Rhoads Years album.

I've given Black Mamba a few listens. It really does have an early Alice Cooper Band vibe, but is a bit slow developing and the "ya ya" chorus is a bit annoying.

A good song, but not a great one. Hoping for better from the rest of the album.
