Alice Cooper-Along Came A Spider

There are only a handful of rock artists that have
proven to be as enduring and influential as Alice
Cooper has over the years. Name just about any hard
rock artist, and they've probably borrowed a thing or
two from Alice. And on his latest studio recording,
"Along Came A Spider" (issued via SPV Records on July
29), Alice has returned with a concept album with a
sinister streak.

"A dark and menacing album for dark and menacing times"
is perhaps the most fitting description for Alice's
25th studio album overall, as a chilling conceptual
thread runs through the songs, which are told through
the voice of a serial killer named Spider — one that
Alice describes as "an arachnophobic psychopath" (in
the song "Catch Me If You Can"). Alice, the master
storyteller, weaves a web of danger, intrigue and death
that rivals his best work.

Co-produced by Danny Saber, Greg Hampton and Alice
himself, "Along Came A Spider" manages to marry both
vintage and modern-day Alice. As theatrical as ever,
the album is a sonic combination of familiar Alice
musical elements from albums as diverse as "Billion
Dollar Babies" and "Brutal Planet", with the
storytelling of "Welcome To My Nightmare", capturing
the historic dark side of Alice in peak form, an
instantly recognizable presence that will be welcomed
by his fans. Joining Alice on the album are members of
his touring band — longtime Alice drummer Eric Singer,
bassist Chuck Garric, and guitarists Keri Kelli and
Jason Hook, with additional contributions from others,
including Saber, Hampton, and renowned backing vocalist
Bernard Fowler. Slash also lends some guitar style to
"Vengeance Is Mine".

Saber and Hampton co-wrote several of the album's songs
with Alice, while others were collaborations with
Alice's band members. Danny Saber, best known for his
role as member and producer of BLACK GRAPE, has also
worked with many other artists, including THE ROLLING
STONES, OZZY OSBOURNE, and DAVID BOWIE, while Greg
Hampton's been working on a new album project teaming
up Buckethead and Bootsy Collins.

Who else but Alice Cooper, with "Along Came A Spider",
would create a "love story" about a serial killer named
Spider? His trademark is wrapping his victims in silk,
and his victims are specifically chosen to feed his
hunger to kill. But, upon meeting his (possibly) last
victim, he falls in love with her and cannot kill to
complete his plan. That could be his demise.

Though it is often said about artists with as rich a
history as Alice that their newest albums capture the
essence of their greatest work, it may honestly be
proposed that "Along Came A Spider" does exactly that.
It's got hard rock with hooks, an Alice trademark
("Vengeance is Mine", "I Know Where You Live"), classic
balladry, another Alice trademark ("Killed by Love",
"Salvation"), and always with an overtone of evil, yet
another Alice tradmark. Throughout the album, Alice
BECOMES Spider, telling the story of a cold-blooded
killer to life vocally, as if this were the soundtrack
to an as-yet unmade horror film.
