Trouble Shooter - Nothing against you, but you obviously don't know anything about the man.
For everyone else: Cooper gave details on his radio show (Nights With Alice Cooper) of the album's storyline and that the theme of the album revolves around a “cool, calm and collected” [1]serial killer named Spider, and the eight victims he needs to kill in order to live; police are baffled by the bodies of Spider’s victims, who are cocooned in a silk web, and are each missing a leg. Spider’s task is to collect eight legs in order to complete the construction of his own spider, however, things get complicated when he falls in love with his eighth victim.
The album had originally been earmarked for release in 2007, but problems with producer scheduling and a busy touring schedule caused it to be delayed a year. A number of songs and demos for the album were prepared and short listed during 2007, and further recording and writing work took place on the album in February 2008. In an interview with Billboard Alice stated that the album was 75% done as of April 18th 2008, and tentatively gave August as a release date.[2]
I gotta get that one when it comes out, and I ain't about to miss him either. Edited at: Tuesday, June 24, 2008 7:23:19 PM
