Alice Cooper has announced that his new album, Road, will be released on August 25 on earMUSIC in a wide variety of formats and limited vinyl colors
Produced by longtime collaborator Bob Ezrin, the album is written, composed and recorded with Cooper’s trusted, longtime bandmates – Ryan Roxie [guitar], Chuck Garric [bass], Tommy Henrikson [guitar], Glen Sobel [drums], and Nita Strauss [guitar]. Road channels the spirit of old school Alice with instantly recognizable grit and plenty of gusto.
“For Road, I wanted the band to be involved in the foundation of all the songs,” said Cooper. “I only see these guys when we’re on the road. So, I wanted them to be as tight as they are for the show but on all new material. When you have a band this good, I believe in showing it off, and this is my way of doing so.”
With the announcement, Cooper also released the first single off the album, titled “I’m Alice.”
“I’m Alice” sets the tone for the album with its driving drumbeat as guitars wail in the distance. Alice’s instantly recognizable rasp takes hold.
“I know you’re looking for a real good time. So, let me introduce you to a friend of mine. I’m Alice. I’m the Master of Madness; the Sultan of Surprise.so don’t be afraid, just look into my eyes,” said Cooper.
Complementing the album’s theme, the bonus DVD/Blu-ray comes with Cooper’s full live show at Hellfest 2022 and includes all the classics and rarely played gems.
