Alice Cooper Returns with Wild Ones

20 Jul Alice Cooper Returns with Wild Ones

The Revenge of Alice Cooper arrives Friday, July 25, and features all surviving members of the original band: Alice Cooper himself, guitarist Michael Bruce, bassist Dennis Dunaway, and drummer Neal Smith. The late guitarist Glen Buxton also appears on the track “What Happened To You,” built around demo riffs he had recorded.

Reuniting five decades after their rise to fame, the original Alice Cooper band channels the chaos, danger, and raw energy of their early days—a time when rock was feared, eyeliner was scandalous, and every concert felt like a revolution. Wild Ones captures the Alice Cooper Group with engines roaring—still loud, still dangerous, still unapologetic. Produced by returning studio mastermind Bob Ezrin, this is the band’s first full album together since 1973’s Muscle of Love. They previously released the track “Black Mamba” in April.

The video for “Wild Ones” was filmed by Banger Films, known for their in-depth rock documentaries—hinting that a new film might be in the works, following their 2014 production Super Duper Alice Cooper.

The iconic shock rock band’s return with its original lineup comes at a time when the legacy of classic rock is reclaiming the spotlight. The group is set to release the album and plans to tour internationally, with select dates in North America and Europe—though official details are yet to be confirmed. The Revenge of Alice Cooper is now available for pre-order in multiple formats.
