Alice Cooper Announces Reunion With His Original Band For First Album Together In 51 Years

Alice Cooper and his original band have reunited for their first album together in 51 years, The Revenge of Alice Cooper, which is scheduled to be released on July 25th. The album is produced by Bob Ezrin, who worked on Alice’s celebrated 70s albums Killers, School’s Out, and Billion Dollar Babies, with the classic band lineup featuring Michael Bruce (guitar), Dennis Dunaway (bass), and Neal Smith (drums). The Revenge of Alice Cooper features 14 songs and two bonus tracks, including the lead single, “Black Mamba” featuring The Doors’ Robby Krieger, which premiered on Tuesday (April 22) on Cooper’s radio show, “Alice’s Attic.” “It was very much like this was our next album after Muscle of Love, just like, ‘OK, this is the next album,’” Cooper told Billboard. “Isn’t that funny after 50 years? All of a sudden it just falls into place.” Cooper will hit the road with his current live band for headlining dates this spring/summer, and a co-headlining fall tour with Judas Priest.
