De legendarische rocker geeft volgende week het officiële startschot van zijn Spend The Night With Alice Cooper-tournee in de Verenigde Staten. En ook in Europa kunnen fans zich in de handen beginnen wrijven, want Alice Cooper kondigt de grote oversteek van zijn tour aan. Op 21 juni betreedt hij het podium van het Koninklijk Circus…dat belooft !
Alice Cooper neemt zijn voltallige band mee om zijn theatrale en psycho-dramatische rock live naar zijn fans te brengen. En dat zijn fans van alle leeftijden, want één ding staat vast : hij is en blijft een iconisch figuur in de internationale rockscène, van generatie op generatie. Als pionier van de shock-rock en meester van de hard rock die op de zintuigen inspeelt, is hij zijn fans gedurende zijn hele carrière blijven verbazen met ongewone shows die hen meenemen op een reis tussen horrorfims, vaudeville en garage rock. Hij werd berucht om zijn atypische showelementen, zoals elektrische stoelen, guillotines, vals bloed en boa constrictors.

Ook vandaag blijft hij zijn typerende horrorthema verderzetten. Als goede vriend van wijlen Lemmy en andere charismatische persoonlijkheden als Slash, Ozzy Osbourne, maar ook Joe Perry en Johnny Depp, met wie hij hij supergroep Hollywood Vampires oprichtte, blijft Alice Cooper een levende legende, onvoorwaardelijk gerespecteerd en geliefd door een heel breed publiek. Er wordt dus steeds reikhalzend uitgekeken naar elk van zijn concerten, des te meer omdat iedere show steeds garant staat voor een onvergetelijke en opwindende live-ervaring. Dat zal ditmaal niet anders zijn, wanneer Vincent Damon Furnier, zoals hij echt heet, en zijn band in Brussel aantreden. Afspraak op 21 juni in het Brussels Koninklijk Circus ! Een absolute must see !

ALICE COOPER: 'PARIS ATTACKS SHOOK ME UP'

9/1/2016

NEWS / Rock legend Alice Cooper was shocked to the core over the Paris terrorist attacks, and hopes that mankind never just accepts senseless killings.

When Alice, real name Vincent Damon Furnier, rose to fame in the late '60s, he was known for his shocking onstage antics. It was a time when rock and roll ruled, and the stars of the day tried to be over the top with their performances. However, these days it's the world around him that often shocks the 67-year-old. The terrorist attacks on Paris in November (15) really troubled Alice, especially the shooting at the Eagles of Death Metal concert.

"(I'm shocked) all the time," Alice admitted to Q magazine. "Especially at the Paris thing. You know, rock'n'roll's not shocking at all. Though I guess we shocked audiences pretty easily in the '70s: here's a guy with a girl's name with snakes and make-up and blood and guillotines... yeah, they were well and truly shocked. But I hope we never get over the shock of somebody going into a concert and killing a bunch of people for no reason. It's not a religious or political thing. It's just a bunch of guys who want to kill people. That's shocking."

Alice also opened up to the magazine about past bar brawls he's been involved in, and his dislike of his cell phone. When asked about the last thing he thinks about before drifting off to sleep, Alice shed some light on his dreams.

"I try to find that moment where you drift between consciousness and unconsciousness," he explained. "I'm always having adventure dreams where I'm James Bond and I'm in total control of a situation which in real life I wouldn't be." (BRIN: Music-News)

AUDIO FIDELITY TO RELEASE ALICE COOPER'S “MUSCLE OF LOVE” ON 4.0 QUAD SACD

16/11/2015

CD NEWS / “Alice returns to a pure rock sound...one of his most revered albums ever.”

Alice Cooper fans rejoice! Marshall Blonstein's Audio Fidelity will be releasing the final Alice Cooper group album on 4.0 Quad SACD. Muscle of Love is the seventh studio album by Alice Cooper and it was the last album to feature the entire original band, and it was a true grand finale at that. Cooper stated in an interview at the time that the album marked a return to fundamentals. “It's not complicated in any sense...It's very basic rock & roll throughout.”
The two best-known tracks are undoubtedly the Top 20 anthem “Teenage Lament '74,” which features none other than Liza Minnelli, Ronnie Spector, Labelle and the Pointer Sisters on backing vocals, and the rollicking title track. But other tracks are just as good - the Led Zep-stomping opener, “Big Apple Dreamin' (Hippo),” the gentle “Hard Hearted Alice” (a precursor to Cooper's future ballad-oriented direction), the raging “Working Up a Sweat,” and “Man with the Golden Gun.”

The 1973 return to the band's more hard rock roots was a successful creative choice and catapulted Muscle Of Love into Billboard's Top 10 Album Chart. That sound, complete with the prog-rock/heavy metal workouts, has proven over the years to be a significant piece of the Alice Cooper legacy.

“One of the best albums of the genre...a hard rock classic!”
