Alice Cooper has announced a new EP called Breadcrumbs, which serves as a tribute to the garage rock heroes from his hometown Detroit. It is slated for a September 13 release. It also features six new songs and will be available on a limited, 10″ vinyl, with only 20,000 numbered copies being released. Check out the full tracklist below.
Cooper is currently on the road with Hollywood Vampires, with tour stops in Portland, ME, Gilford, NH, Bristow, VA and Holmdel, NJ before concluding Aug.16 at the BB&T Pavillion in Camden, NJ. Hollywood Vampire also includes Cooper alongside Aerosmith’s Joe Perry and Johnny Depp. The band released their album Rise in June, which included singles “The Boogieman Surprise” and “Who’s Laughing Now,” showcasing Depp and Cooper’s vocal abilities. Cooper stated that “Rise is not only a totally different animal than the first Vampires album, it is unique to anything I’ve ever been a part of.” He continued to say I think that with this album, we are establishing what the Vampires’ sound really is, whereas, with the first album, we were more tipping our hats to our fallen rock ‘n’ roll brothers.”
