The most authentic comeback of 2025: Alice Cooper returns with new video and album

A legendary lineup reunites—and proves real rock never fades

Half a century after their last studio album as a full original lineup, Alice Cooper, Michael Bruce, Dennis Dunaway, and Neal Smith are back. Their new record, The Revenge of Alice Cooper, drops July 25, and the lead single is already setting the tone: loud, raw, and gloriously rebellious.

“Wild Ones” – A rebel anthem for the ages

The debut single “Wild Ones” isn’t just a song—it’s a throwback to untamed freedom. Drawing inspiration from the 1953 film The Wild One starring Marlon Brando, the track hits like a clenched fist and rides like a leather-clad motorcycle down an endless highway. The music video blends road-charged imagery—roaring bikes and open skies—with gritty studio cuts that capture the band’s vintage chemistry in full force.

“Yeah, we’re the wild ones, we live in every town / We own the city streets, we rule the underground…”
Alice Cooper’s voice remains as snarling and sinister as ever—proof that age hasn’t dulled his edge.

A bridge between eras

The Revenge of Alice Cooper will feature 14 tracks, including a deeply poignant moment: a posthumous appearance from original guitarist Glen Buxton, who passed away in 1997. The track “What Happened to You” uses archival recordings of Buxton’s playing—adding a ghostly and emotional dimension to the album.

The deluxe box set will also include newly mixed classics like “Return of the Spiders” (1970), reworked by longtime producer Bob Ezrin, and “Titanic Overunderture”, a hybrid of vintage takes and fresh studio energy.

Fall tour with Judas Priest: Rock reignites

This fall, Alice Cooper will join forces with Judas Priest for a co-headlining North American tour spanning 22 cities. But this isn’t just a nostalgia trip. It’s a revival—proof that when it comes to pure, unfiltered rock & roll, the originals still lead the pack.
