Breadcrumbs - EP

Alice Cooper


He’s back! He’s the man behind the mask,
and he’s out... with a new EP paying tribute
to the garage rock of the city where he grew
up, Detroit. For this six-track release, Cooper
has recruited numerous Detroit musicians,
including drummer Johnny “Bee” Badanjek,
and covered material from Suzi Quatro, MC5
and Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels.


FIVE FACTS:



  1. The physical release of Breadcrumbs has
    been limited globally to just 20,000 copies
    on 10-inch vinyl.

  2. Cooper has reflected that for this EP, he
    and his collaborators were striving for a
    “certain Detroit sound” that is “indefinable”
    but influenced by R&B, Motown and guitars.

  3. The glam-rock legend added: “I feel if we
    mine around with all Detroit players, we’re
    gonna find that sound”, referring to what he
    calls “Detroit rock”.

  4. The covers on Breadcrumbs include
    Quatro’s “Your Mama Won’t Like Me”, Mitch
    Ryder & The Detroit Wheels’ “Devil with a
    Blue Dress on” and MC5’s “Sister Anne”.

  5. Cooper’s last full-length studio album was
    2017’s Paranormal, but a new full-length
    release is lined up for 2020.
