Alice Cooper has announced a new six-track EP.
'Breadcrumbs' is out on September 13 via earMusic and contains a mix of covers and originals, serving as a tribute to "garage rock heroes" of the legendary shock rocker's hometown, Detroit.
Included are covers of MC5's Sister Anne, Suzi Quatro's Your Mamma Won’t Like Me, and Mitch Ryder and The Detroit Wheels' Devil With a Blue Dress On, while original songs featured are Detroit City 2020, Go Man Go, and East Side Story. Speaking to Billboard earlier this year, Cooper said:
"There's a certain Detroit sound we're looking for. It's indefinable. There's a certain amount of R&B in it. There's a certain amount of Motown in it. But then you add the guitars and you add the attitude and it turns into Detroit rock. I feel like if we mine around with all Detroit players, we're gonna find that sound."
Cooper is currently touring the US with Halestorm and Motionless In White. He'll return to the UK this autumn for an arena tour with the Stranglers and MC50 featuring Wayne Kramer. Head below for dates and ticket details.
