PARANORMAL German Classic Rock Review translated

Came across this German review of "Paranormal"
from German's Classic Rock issue that recently came out
and here's a roughly translated through Google Translation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Nice Guy pays tribute to the golden 70s!


Surprises are on Alice Cooper 27 Studio album PARANORMAL far more than enough. The most important - if not the most sensational - is his consistent return to the (Rock) values ​​of the 70s, when this music experienced its most colorful epoch. As if there had never been bulky and disagreeable releases such as BRUTAL PLANET (2000) or DRAGONTOWN (2000), Cooper continues to devote himself to deep melodic songs without interfering experiments. In the process, he fires psychedelic space rock from the imagination fog machine (Fireball), surprisingly funky (Dead Flies) confesses to his Deep Purple Roots (Paranormal) and ends the new album with a song to which even Pink Floyd was proud in her blood phase (The Sound Of A). Coming to the highpoints already announced in the run - up: Cooper has a lot of well - known guests with Roger Glover (Deep Purple), Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top) and Larry Mullen Jr. (U2), as well as a bonus CD Promised reunion of the original band (feat. Dennis Dunaway, Neal Smith and Michael Bruce). The best thing about PARANORMAL, however, is: There are at least twelve powerful new songs!

Germany's Classic Rock, July/August issue out now!

Alice Cooper graces the cover and includes a feature story of 10 pages
in Germany's Classic Rock July/August issue out now!

To all of Germany's Alice Cooper fans enjoy this issue. I envy you.

It make's me wonder when was the last time Alice was on the cover of
any U.S. publications. I'm not talking free or local magazines.
I'm talking cross country publications.

Muscle of Love album review by Kim Fowley

I found this old review from BOMP! issue on
waitakerewalks blogspot.
Not sure on the date but safe to say it must be 1973
when Muscle Of Love was released. Also the review written by
Kim Fowley who doesn't write kindly of the new Alice Cooper album.

EarMusic has posted the 'Paranoiac Personality' promo and track listings

As you already know Alice's recent label EarMusic released the promo
 'Paranoiac Personality' single. I have to say it's not much of
a video w/ the album cover pasted over the film but
what do expect from a label that put out a poor cover art.
You think w/ a legend like Alice Cooper the label
would put more thought into it.

The single is also available on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon and others for download.




The Single 
1. Paranoiac Personality
2. I’m Eighteen (Live in Dallas. This is w/ the original band at Good Records, October 6, 2016)
