Alice Cooper Goes to Hell

A theatrical descent into a vaudevillian underworld. Alice trades garage grit for lush orchestrations, disco grooves, and surprisingly tender piano ballads.

It's a disco-infused rock opera about Alice Cooper getting kicked out of heaven for being too annoying.

A campy, vaudevillian descent into the afterlife that balances dark humor with moments of genuine vulnerability.

Moments Worth Waiting For

the sudden transition from the heavy riffing of the title track into the unexpected disco-funk groove of track 2

the vulnerable, stripped-back piano opening of I Never Cry that reveals a rare moment of genuine sobriety

the cinematic choral swell during the finale of Going Home as the nightmare cycle finally breaks
