Alice Cooper Brings The Nightmare Back!
Nearly 35 years (!!!) after the release of Welcome To My Nightmare, horror shock rocker Alice Cooper is back with the sequel, entitled Welcome 2 My Nightmare (I see what you did there Alice and it is clever!). The album came out Sept. 13th and landed at #22 on the Billboard charts. Considering how long Alice has been around, this is no small feat!
“This is Alice’s nightmare 35 years later,” explains Alice, “Bob (Ezrin – Producer) and I created this character and we know how to write for him. I play the part but we’re not writing for me, we’re writing for Alice. We kept the first Nightmare album very personal to us, on this one we found more humor and we were more open. This was our world and we want to present it to the fans. The original album was my first solo album after all those huge hit records with the original band and now that nightmare is exposed, this one can be a little bit more open. The music crosses all sorts of boundaries; we went where the lyrics took us.”
