Last June, Alice Cooper told Rolling Stone that he wrote 30 songs for his two new albums with longtime producer Bob Ezrin. He said:

“The two albums are definitely two different angles of coming in to Alice Cooper. One is very hard rock; the other one is hard rock but it's twisted. And that's all I can say about it right now, because there's a couple of really important things about both albums."

Alice Cooper is a rock legend whose career spans over five decades. Cooper’s stage setup usually features various props and illusions, including pyrotechnics, guillotines, electric chairs, fake blood, reptiles, baby dolls, and dueling swords.
