ALICE COOPER: Paranormal (earMusic)

BACKED by a solid band, Detroit veteran Alice is still spreading his tales of cannibals (Dead Flies), Cadillacs (Dynamite Road) and creatures of the night (the title track). This CD won’t win many new fans, but lacks nothing in spirit (or spirits) with its power chords and rhythmic bluster enhanced by Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, and U2’s Larry Mullen.
