In celebration of their historic reunion and the release of their first studio album in over 50 years, The Revenge Of Alice Cooper, the original group will appear for a once-in-a-lifetime exclusive live event at London’s Union Chapel on Wednesday, July 24th.
Presented by earMusic in cooperation with Rough Trade, this intimate evening will be hosted by none other than the legendary Sir Tim Rice and is limited to just 900 fans. The event will include an exclusive first-listen album playback, a deep-dive interview with the band, and a rare audience question-and-answer session.
Tickets go on sale Wednesday, June 11th at 10 am BST via Rough Trade’s website, with both general admission tickets and bundles that include the new album available for purchase. A special commemorative print will also be included with each ticket.
Not among the lucky 900? No need to panic — you can still catch every second live from wherever you are. The event will be live streamed globally via the earMusic and Alice Cooper YouTube channels, as well as TalkShopLive.
This unprecedented evening marks the return of the original Alice Cooper lineup of Alice Cooper, Dennis Dunaway, Neal Smith and Michael Bruce, who have reunited with producer Bob Ezrin to create The Revenge Of Alice Cooper. The album, due July 25th, includes a special posthumous feature from original guitarist Glen Buxton and guest appearance by Robby Krieger of The Doors on the debut single “Black Mamba.”
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. From the venomous bite of “Black Mamba” to the rebellious charge of “Wild Ones,” and the soft, haunting melodies of “See You on the Other Side, ” every track feels like a rock ‘n’ roll classic.
The box set and limited smart format include two exclusive, never-before-released tracks. First is a long-lost 1970 version of “Return of The Spiders,” recently discovered after more than 50 years and newly mixed by legendary producer Bob Ezrin. The second, “Titanic Overunderture,” is a powerful new composition blending vintage recordings with brand-new performances. For both tracks, Alice Cooper, Neal Smith, Michael Bruce, and Dennis Dunaway reunited with Ezrin in a traditional Connecticut recording studio, rekindling the spirit and sonic energy that first defined their groundbreaking work in the 1970s.
The original Alice Cooper group featuring Alice Cooper on vocals, Michael Bruce on guitar, Dennis Dunaway on bass, Neal Smith on drums, and Glen Buxton on guitar redefined rock in the early 1970s, blending raw, hard-hitting music with shocking theatricality. With Bob Ezrin at the helm, they pioneered shock rock, delivering rebellious anthems, dark storytelling, and over-the-top stage shows featuring guillotines, snakes, and macabre theatrics. Albums like 1971’s Love It to Death and Killer, 1972’s School’s Out, and 1973’s Billion Dollar Babies turned them into superstars, producing legendary hits like “I’m Eighteen,” “Elected,” “School’s Out,” and “No More Mr. Nice Guy”. Their mix of hard rock, glam, and horror made them one of the most influential and controversial bands of their era, leaving a permanent mark on rock history. Alice Cooper has sold countless millions of records worldwide and shaped rock history forever. Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2011, their music remains as powerful and relevant as ever. Now, with The Revenge of Alice Cooper, the original band reunites for one more epic chapter, reclaiming the sound and legacy that made them legends.
