I put another dollar in the respect for Alice Cooper with, "...we were capitalists!" and "We made the hippies mad, we made the tough guys mad, we made the gays mad; we made everybody mad, and went, whadda you gonna do about it?" That's real rebellion in the age of hippie, free-love bullshit.

Pretty much every band is capitalist they just gaslight themselves into thinking they are anti establishment

The Godfather of Shock Rock Alice Cooper getting his Metal Mythos is so well deserved.

I will never forget the day Alice walked into my dad's jewelry store and asked if he could fix the clasp on his watch. After 5 days he came back to get it and asked my dad I'd he wanted to go golfing with him, to which he obviously said yes. After that he came back about a year and a half later with a signed poster for me and told me to keep my room clean. That was probably the coolest thing to happen in my youth.

Alice was my first concert...on the Raise Your Fist And Yell tour in early 88..with Kip on bass and Kane on guitar. I still have a Kane Roberts personalized pick he threw in my direction and I retrieved. My dad took me to the concert, got right up to the front, and formed a human barricade around me so I wouldnt get squashed. I only knew the words to "Eighteen" at the time, but Alice put the mic in front of my face so I could sing the chorus (more like the word Eighteen) when it came around. His show blew my mind...all of the beheadings, hangings, and gore you would expect. At the end of the show, the band released a bunch of big balloons into the crowd...when the crowd predictably popped them, confetti, glitter, and fake blood rained over the front rows (as if we werent already spattered from the blood-pumping headless corpses etc). Since my dad and I were from over an hour away from town and were in the big city, we had to grab groceries before we went home to the sticks. Once our eyes adjusted to the bright lights of the supermarket, we noticed we looked like we had been in an auto accident in a clown car with few survivors...and people stared at the man and child covered in blood and glitter who were talking to each other like both were half-deaf. A night I'll never forget...I was 11.

Where Wayne and Garth go back stage to meet Alice Cooper and instead of being a typical, rock persona of drugs, sex, and horror, he's a grounded, level-headed, and smart person underneath the imagery. It's a joke and compliment.

This video completely changed my perception of AC’s music. Other than “school’s out” I’ve never really engaged with it, and my assumptions about him and his catalogue were clearly way out of line with reality. Metal Mythos is such a great series.

My dad used to work as a landscaper at an upscale suburban strip mall in Northern California. One day he was tending to the flowers on the property and heard a familiar voice behind him; he turned around and it was none other than the legend Alice himself. They proceeded to have a conversation about flowers for the next fifteen minutes. One of the absolute coolest figures in rock history, and happy to see he finally gets his own Mythos.

I'm just gonna say it. The Muppet Show starring Alice Cooper was one of the single greatest 22 minutes of television in the late 70s. It was the first time 5 year old me had even heard of Alice, and by the end of School's Out, I was ready to rock.

He wasn’t that bad with KISS he did destroyer and revenge.The elder is on Paul and gene.

I met Alice at Gameworks in Tempe Az. between 97 and 98. He came in in blue jeans and flannels wearing a hat. He blended right in with everybody. Never acted like a rockstar. He generally just wanted to make sure his son was having a good time. Most importantly he treated employees with respect. I don't know about how he acted at home or what his kids think of him. ON that day I didn't see a celebrity. I saw a damn nice guy doing the kind of stuff dads should do. Half the time you would go into gameworks you would see dads in the bar and kids doing shit alone. Alice was actually paying attention to his kid.

“Ask all five pieces of Duane Allman.” I know he died, but I’m dying.

I just wanted to say thanks, because for the past two months I've been listening to Kane Roberts first two albums NONSTOP. *Kane Roberts: He melts faces, **_AND hearts._* He's such a meathead goofball, but if you listen to his first two albums, there's a lot of tracks that are *really sentimental.* Shredding the guitar, as always, but His vocals are *strong, clear, and he's hitting some **_cleeean_* vocal riffs with surprizing range. It's like the class clown jock who secretly writes _poetry,_ but he'll knock your lights out if you tell anyone.

I love that interview for Brutal Planet. “Well, the cat was in a tree..” it reminds me so much of the He-Man clip where Skeletor is leading two kids to safety for Christmas. “Don’t call me nice! I don’t want to be nice! I want to be evil!!” And then Wicked Young Man drops and solidifies that. “Well, yes, he’s a false king sitting on my throne, but he’s being wrongfully accused of mass shootings!”

Killer is such a special record in the pantheon of hard rock. I remember picking it up on vinyl and tossing it on the turntable for the first time. Once needle hit wax and the raucous cacophonous symphony of toms and wailing lead guitars hit my virginal ear drums, I knew my life would never be the same.

Alice has influenced me both musically and spiritually. His story has blown my mind and continually inspires me to pursue Christ. He is truly one of a kind.

I can confirm I’ve seen Alice Cooper this year, and at 75 years old he’s still got it. Alice Cooper is what every rockstar should be.

Metal Mythos has become one of my favorite shows of all time! I hope it continues for a long time!

Alcohol addiction to destroy his liver, Cocaine addiction to destroy his mind, and finally Golf addiction to destroy his bank account.

Just saw Alice Cooper in Phoenix with Rob Zombie recently. The man is a hell of a performer.

Salvador Dali, Vincent Price, Mae West, Frank Sinatra, Fred Astaire, Groucho Marx, Jim Henson, Christopher Lee… having a cup of coffee with Alice’s fans would be the world’s greatest conversation.

Started watching this last night and couldn’t stop. What a story. Didn’t realise till I got near the end how long it was. Was gripped though. Have had Alice on my playlist all day now. Great work,great subject and great music. Thanks for making me aware of a load of stuff I missed over the years.

Apparently he golfs frequently at the club I just got hired at. I was told he has banquets here so hopefully I will get to cook for him!

Simply wonderful. Love EVERY entry into the Metal Mythos! Interesting side note, my father worked in churches in SoCal in the 70;s as a choir director. The pastor of the church he worked for? Sheryl Goddard's dad. She actually babysat me and brother while living in southern California. Mountains can be moved. Thanks for your great video, friend!

The long awaited Mythos ... Thank you Razorfist for this, been asking for this one for a while

Cheers Razor for another Mythos. You've previously expanded my love of Queen, W.A.S.P and Motorhead, and now you've done the same for Alice Cooper.

the secret of Alice's success is that he has a sense of humor and doesn't take himself too seriously. For a big a rock star as he is he always seems very humble in interviews and down to earth. Dont think I've ever heard or read a bad thing about him.

I saw Alice Cooper live two months ago for the first time. I'm so glad to have attended that concert!!! 54 years in the music industry and he still rocks!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

My favorite for all time. Alice found me on my way to Detroit in 1987 when I was eleven. My friends dad was driving us to The Eastern Market. “Go To Hell” was playing on the radio, WRIF. I became completely immersed in the music from that day on. I cannot imagine life without it. The original band was particularly amazing. I love it all though! 🤘🏼

Fun Fact: the character "Steven" is also mentioned at the end of the _Hey Stoopid_ album, in the fade of _Wind Up Toy_

I became an Alice fan when I saw his quote about how he wouldn't deem to tell another person what to think as that would imply they can't figure it out for themselves and would be the height of hubris and vanity. That is the most based take ever and one that's completely in opposition to the usual Hollywood actor take of trying to tell us what we should think. PS: 20:15 Ooof, shot across the bow 😂

My dear bro, Alice was my idol as a child 3rd grade I got Killers album for Christmas from my older sister, and just listened to over and over and never stopped loving him. Thank you for your kick ass work as usual!!!😊❤

Holy crap. That's epic

Thank you for this. I think I asked about this years ago from you lol. Alice Cooper is really special to me, my dad introduced me to him when I was a kid back in like 1980 on a repeat of the Muppet Show, he said "this is who your uncle Steve and I listened to before I met your mom" (Steve was his best friend) and since then he's been the one thing (other than the STL Cardinals) we really bond over. Honestly I think the time my dad was the most proud was during karaoke and I did a perfect imitation of some of Alice's songs. One thing about Hey Stoopid is I love how he kind of reintroduces the Steven mythology in "Wind Up Toy". My favorite of all his albums is honestly "From the Inside", having spent a couple of stints in a physical rehab that was almost like a drug rehab center, it hits hard.

Alice Cooper/ Nita Strauss fun fact: Nita got the job, after Kip Winger recommended her to Alice. And if you ask yourselves: "How did that happen?" , well Kip Winger was Alice Cooper´s bass player back in the early 80´s and knew Nita from the Iron Maidens tribute band.

I've never explored Alice's music, I will now. Thank you!

Killer is absolutely an album of its time. I won't use all the dumb cliches of saying it was "ahead of its time" or whatever, but goddamn. It was that pitch perfect and iconic response to the hangover coming out of the late 60's. Like waking up from a night of drinking a handle of whiskey and then proceeding to blast your own head off with an 8ball for breakfast.

From the fist Metal Mythos I saw (Gorgoroth) , through the Mythos dome on my all time favorite band (W. A. S. P), I have been a loyal follower. Doing a legend like Alice Cooper has made me an eternal follower. Your rants are just the icing on a fucking high cake. I agree to disagree at time but fucking hell your Metal Mythos' are stuff of legends. Thanks so much for putting these in together.

You understandably hesitated in calling the Queen episode a Metal Mythos; well, the extent of what you covered proved that this could have been a Music Mythos! Thank you so much for this incredible work. Alice's Brutal Planet (and the accompanying live show) had a profound positive impact on my musical journey but, but had a terribly negative impact on my fashion sense, as did most of the industrial wave of the 2000's. I'm glad we are now past that dark period in time as a species. The fact that you shouted out Missing Persons, one of my absolute favorite New Wave bands, as a reference point for Alice's work in his blackout period made me seek out these albums faster than the speed of light and you are absolutely correct in stating that not everything is a loss. As an avid enjoyed of 80's non metal cheese I am delighted. Finally, I think Along Came A Spider might be unique in that I rarely ever listen to songs from it without letting the rest of the album play; the concept informs everything on the album and even if it's not all top shelf material, I think it works better if you let it all spin sequentially, letting the lyrical and musical callbacks and build-up strengthen the adequate arrangements. I can't think of many concept albums that live up to their concepts so perfectly. Again, thanks for this incredible work, I'm just a bit saddened by the abandon of your previous "best track/worst track" structure for album review; but I understand how constraining it can be.

Man it took forwver to finish this video. I kept stopping to go listen to alice cooper

I waited for this Metal Mythos for years. Well worth the wait. Fantastic work Razorfist.

More Metal Mythos please.

Alice Cooper is probably one of the most underrated artists in the history of Metal. People think he made a few catchy singles and it was all about the live show.

Nice! Some new metal content!!! There's a new band I'm listening to a ton - Helm's Deep, their album is 'Treacherous Ways' and it's got John Gallagher of Raven playing bass. I have been hoping you'll come across it! It fukken RIPS!!!! I saw Alice open for Maiden at Jones Beach, the audience wasn't really full for Alice. I thought that kinda sucked that people didn't show up for him - he's one of the greats. A legend. I was just as happy to see him as Maiden. I had seen Maiden a bunch of times at that point, but never Alice.

I've never listened to alice cooper short of his biggest mainstream hits but he's always intrigued me, also seems as laidback, eloquent and intelligent as hes made out to look in his Waynes World cameo. Impressive for a pensioner in full face makeup, good job with this video Razor!

It’s one of only a few Alice albums I own physically and it’s haunting one.

Well, Razorfist you did it again. I'm here watching this for the third time. Your Metal Mythos videos are all killer no filler.

Great job on Alice Cooper, Raz0r! I saw him in 2019 in NH (of all places) and he kicked ass! Even wore a Red Sox uniform with the number 18 on the back for the encore I'm Eighteen (should have worn a Bruins jersey with the same number but who am I to say what Alice wears on stage). Keep up the great work and GOD-FUCKING-SPEED!

As a 46 year old that was raised on rock & metal Alice has always been on my radar as a legendary rocker. I really loved his 80s comeback from watching the MTV Halloween show, He's Back, Constrictor, & one of me &.my wife's favorites Poison. As someone who also took a very destructive path (minus the fame & wealth), is alive today only because I found salvation in Jesus Christ at 19, back in '97. Shortly thereafter I heard Alice's testimony which gave me a greater appreciation for him, & what he has done since coming to faith in Christ. Needless to say my favorite albums are Brutal Planet & Dragontown as they were raw, & gave a vivid look at the grimdark world of spiritual warfare we indeed live in. This is my first Metal Mythos & this is extraordinary! It will not be my last, I just sure hope there is or will be one on Iron Maided. Up the irons!

I've seen one of his show like 15 years ago and god, it was something. I don't regret at all. It was more than a concert it was a full experience. This dude knows how to be a showman

I loved the early lineup and one of his best albums, "Killer".... "Alice" is a great front man and dude... God bless him... 🔥🎸🔥

I had the biggest smile when Raise Your Fist and Yell came up. Billion Dollar Babies is my favorite Alice album, but that one would be a very close second.

Raise Your Fist and Yell is so good!

Alice soundtracked the end of my high school years. Diego and I out on Washoe Vista, down by the river listening to Alice, those days weren’t to last.

A long came a spider was my first Alice Cooper album. It had a huge impact on me as a young musician. I was instantly a Alice Cooper fan and I wanted to be like him.

Great video! Haven't listened to him yet, but on your recommendation I think I'll check out Killer tomorrow!

​@@TheRageaholic I ended up listening to both Love It to Death and Killer. Who was hiding two of the best hard rock albums of all time from me? I demand they be punished. I swear each Metal Mythos is better than the last. Keep it up Razor!

I've seen Alice twice and I can't highly recommend him enough. One of the greatest performers I have ever seen!

I've always dug that roses on white lace song

I had tickets to see Alice back in April...of 2020. Suffice to say, I thought I missed my only chance to see him live before he hangs it up. I am glad to say I caught him just a couple months ago. A short, 80 minute set, but excellent.

Alice is classic. Quirky and uneven catalog, but a lot of great gems scattered throughout his career. Saw him a couple of years ago live, and they did a great set.

Hmm, I didn't know "Unholy War” and “Stolen Prayer" were written by Chris Cornell. Apparently they were written for Ozzy Osbourne but he turned them down and they went to Alice Cooper for The Last Temptation

I was blessed to see Alice Cooper at the Hard Rock in Atlantic City in 2009. I was born in 69 and I remember as a kid when my mom was gone putting on her Alice Cooper album and acting out the songs like I was Vince himself. I couldn't believe I was seeing one of the few people I admired as a young man in such a personal setting. What a great show. It is the last rock show I have attended. If I could break bread with any seven people in the world Vince is a top three invite. I will never forget that show.

I was wondering when you’d make another one of these videos. All hail razorfist
