Alice Cooper reissues two classic albums

Alice Cooper will reissue two classic albums from his extensive discography.

The iconic rocker has expanded 2008’s “Along Came A Spider” and 2011’s “Welcome 2 My Nightmare.”

“Along Came A Spider” features Slash on "Vengeance Is Mine", while "Wake the Dead" carries the weight of Ozzy Osbourne behind the scenes.

This remastered reissue lands in two formats, including a Jewelcase CD and a 2LP Gatefold (45 RPM) vinyl edition. Both come packed with three bonus tracks, giving fans a little extra to dig into.

Then there's “Welcome 2 My Nightmare.” The return to Steven's story. The sequel fans waited decades for, it delivers threads from the original 1975 album and twists them into something new. Familiar, but not stuck in the past.

The guest list reads like the invitation list to a very exclusive nightmare. Desmond Child brings his hitmaking touch, while Ke$ha adds a surprising edge. Even better, original band members Michael Bruce, Dennis Dunaway, and Neal Smith step back in, reconnecting the sound to its roots.

This reissue comes as a newly mastered 2CD digipak and a 3LP Gatefold (45 RPM) vinyl set, built for serious listening. Seven bonus tracks are included, among them live cuts of "Poison" and "No More Mr. Nice Guy" recorded at Download Festival.

The reissues of “Along Came A Spider” and “Welcome 2 My Nightmare” are available across all major platforms and in multiple physical formats.
