ALICE COOPER PARANORMAL Release Date: 28th June 2017

It's been six years since Alice Cooper released a new studio album and his 27th, Paranormal, will hit the shops on 28th July. Fans have grown to expect the dark from Cooper, but don't let the Paranormal title deceive you as “it's not really a scary record.” The singer mentioned the title means “other than normal,” which is a testament to the nature of this new collection of songs.

The first release under a new deal with EARMUSIC, Paranormal will be available in three editions: double-disc Digipak, two-lp limited-edition box and via digital download.
