VARIANT: 50th Anniversary Edition Vinyl LP
Capitalizing on the breakthrough success of Love it to Death’s “I’m Eighteen,” 1971’s Killer cemented Alice Cooper’s rep as the U.S.’ most dangerous long-haired rock and roll band. Produced by then-rising studio wiz Bob Ezrin (Kiss, Lou Reed), the act’s fourth album is an edgy release full of screamin’-demon excess (“Under My Wheels”), ghoulish sincerity (“Halo of Flies”) and glammy shock-rock (“Dead Babies”). Presented in a gatefold sleeve and slabbed on 180-gram wax, you’d better take this 50th anniversary pressing of Killer home.
