The song is the first from the band’s forthcoming project
For the first time in over 50 years, the original Alice Cooper group has reunited to release a new studio album, The Revenge of Alice Cooper, set to release on July 25th through earMusic. This highly anticipated album is heralded as the successor to their iconic records Schools Out, Billion Dollar Babies, Love It to Death, and Killer. The first single from the album, “Black Mamba,” is out now, featuring the legendary Robby Krieger of The Doors. This track serves as a venomous introduction to the new era of Alice Cooper, packed with familiar classic riffs and electrifying energy.
The Revenge of Alice Cooper is a high-voltage journey into vintage horror and classic ’70s shock rock, capturing the sound, energy, and mischief that made the original Alice Cooper band legendary. In a truly special moment, the album features a posthumous appearance by Glen Buxton, the band’s original guitarist who passed away in 1997, through an unreleased recording that seamlessly blends the past with the present on “What Happened To You,” featuring his original guitar part.
One of the bonus tracks on the box set and limited smart format also includes a long-lost gem from 1970 – a raw, alternate take of “Return of The Spiders” (not the version heard on Easy Action)—recently unearthed from original multi-tracks missing for 50 years and now enhanced and mixed by Bob Ezrin.
Alice, Neal, Michael, and Dennis have reunited with their producer Bob Ezrin in a old-school recording studio in Connecticut, rekindling the magic from the 70s.
This album is a celebration of friendship, nostalgia, and the timeless sound that solidified Alice Cooper as a rock icon. Fans can expect a powerful and nostalgic experience that bridges the gap between the band’s storied past and their vibrant present.
The Revenge Of Alice Cooper will be available on a variety of formats and limited vinyl colors. Also available as a limited box set and as a limited art print (smart format), featuring exclusive access to two bonus tracks from the start, plus the full album automatically delivered as a high-definition download on release day.
