John V Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I saw his show/concert on AXS TV not long ago. The cleaned up Alice. Not the Alice I saw live in the 70's.The new band rocked with that chick on guitar.I thought she was just playing rhythm guitar until she cut loose on her own. All the people in this new band are very good musicians and the drummer was excellent.I'm not sure if these are his band/people or people hired to do the shows. But wherever he found or got them, he got a very good band.Alice as always was the show. I like Alice.I think I like his music better today than in the early years. I also think he did some new stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Despite being an Alice Cooper fan for nearly 4 years now, there's a few of his albums I still have yet to listen to One of them is "Raise Your Fist and Yell". LOVE the album's single "Freedom". Anyway, I had no idea about this, but the album is yet another concept album of his. Now I'm going to have to listen to it ASAP. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxTAu4_5nP8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) This is so cool.. I'm an Alice Cooper fan (clearly), and so is my metonymic brother who I've been a caretaker for for years now. This weekend he spent the night at my place, and I let him use my computer. For those who don't use iTunes: there's a rating function on it which allows you to rate a song one a scale of 1 to 5 stars. I don't make use of this function personally. Just now I've opened iTunes to play some Alice Cooper, and I found that he went through and rated 5 stars on every Alice Cooper song on every album of his I have there on iTunes. I find that both hilarious and adorable. http://puu.sh/pAjv5.jpg Edited June 21, 2016 by Mr. Not 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constrictor is another one I have yet to hear. My thoughts on Raise Your Fist is... The guitar shredding is great, but Alice's songwriting doesn't seem to be up to its usual par. I still love Freedom, as far as the USA goes the lyrics "Freedom to rock, freedom to talk!" have never been more relevant than they are today. Censorship is retarded. Anyway, the biggest turn-off from RYFAY for me is the album art. It's weird, and the bad kind of weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas King Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 His 70's output is superb: Killer, Billion Dollars Babies(his best album IMO), Love it to Death, Welcome to my Nightmare.His 80's work is much weaker and I try to avoid to hear his biggest hit Poison. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be his 27th studio album :o http://www.blabbermo...l-release-date/ Was afraid Nightmare 2 might be his last. This is cool news, and it's coming very soon too. Hope it's more like Along Came a Spider rather than Nightmare 2 to be honest. The eclectic nature of Nightmare 2 was cool, if only it had been more metal oriented it'd have gone a lot better.

Mosher Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Halo of Flies is proof enough that Alice Cooper could do anything, while Poison is proof that he shouldn't. Big fan of his/their early stuff. In fairness, I have not bothered to check out much from the 80's and beyond, because I disliked the singles and as a kid that's all I heard.I should check out everything else, because his 70's work was so very good and proves he can do it.

They either try to hard or they simply change what they want to do, but a good artist should always be capable of doing good work. So in that spirit I will definitely check those out with high expectations! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
