Alice Cooper (Official Thread)

Re: Alice Cooper

^^^^ Yes!!!

Both those albums are like a Part 1 and 2...he could have made a double disc on both of these.

Alice performed "I'll Bite Your Face Off" on the Tonight Show this past weekend with rocking guitar lass Orianthi joining him on state for a triple guitar attack. She also played with Alice for "School's Out" on American Idol a couple seasons ago.

The one thing that wasn't into camera view on Leno the other night is at the beginning of the song Alice was walking backwards toward the front of the stage & the camera cut away. Had the camera remained on Alice everyone would have read the back of his jacket which read..."New Song" (his way of introducing it)

I love the new album...many different styles... For some reason every song just stuck in my brain.

Hey bucky!!

Yeah, I think the new CD is a real winner, I mean they all are, but this one flows really really well. Much better than Spider did IMO...and that one I like alot too.

I agree on that & to be honest with my opinion...This may be my 3rd favorite Cooper in the last 25 years(I don't know if I could give it the edge over Brutal Planet or Raise Your Fist & Yell)! I loved everything he came out with in the 2000's but after 2 or 3 listens on this new album I knew every song front to back. I also like the bonus tracks meaning "Under the Bed" from the Best Buy version & "A Bad Situation" & "We've Gotta Get Out of this Place"(yes a cover of the Animals hit & Alice rocks it out!) from the Itunes version. The live cuts on the Best Buy version sound amazing as well

 

[METALPRIEST]

Under The Bed I felt should have been a part of the actual CD track list and not a bonus. It's that good...one of my favorite songs on it.

Love the Black Widow music references and the Poison like chorus. Should be a single if you ask me.

Listened to Alice Cooper's live broadcast from the Whiskey on Wklos from last night & it was great! He played in the club & played it like he was a bar band. Besides his classic hits he played "Train Kept a Rollin'", "Brown Sugar", & Robbie Kreiger from the Doors jammed with him on "Break on Through" & "Back Door Man".

It's still up on the KLOS site if anyone wants to listen to it:

95.5 KLOS Southern California's Best Rock

I see the Alice thread is back in good hands again.

He's beyond a legend now in my books, age doesn't seem to slow him down at all.

Thanks LG! That broadcast is really cool...It's worth checking out the opening song "Train Kept a Rollin'" performed in Yardbirds tradition with some cool guitars & harmonica
