Description: | KILLER (DELUXE EDITION) introduces a newly remastered version of the original release, which peaked at #21 on the Billboard albums chart. Along with the singles ??Under My Wheels? and ??Be My Lover,? the record also includes ??Yeah, Yeah, Yeah,? ??Desperado,? and the prog-rock-inspired epic ??Halo Of Flies.? The bonus material features alternate takes for ??You Drive Me Nervous,? ??Under My Wheels,? and ??Dead Babies.?
The collection also gives fans an unreleased live recording of the band??s performance at Mar Y Sol Pop Festival in Puerto Rico on April 2, 1972. Recorded a few months before the band returned to the studio to make School??s Out, the show previews ??Public Animal #9? from the upcoming album. The band played most of Killer during the concert, including ??You Drive Me Nervous,? ??Under My Wheels,? and ??Halo Of Flies.? They also tapped the group??s 1971 album, Love It to Death, for live versions of ??Is It My Body?,? ??Long Way To Go,? and the smash hit ??I??m Eighteen.? - .. ANNIVERSARY / 180GR.Killer certainly takes it's title to heart. This is an album that bursts forth with energy, danger, and a razor-sharp edge. Too much ain't enough. Yes, Alice Cooper's second release is all that and more, a 1971 set that both followed up on the breakthrough success of Love It To Death and solidified he and his band's position as rock's most notorious, shocking, violent, sleazy, and theatrical unit. And then some. Killer finds the group further honing it's heavy rock sound while hinting at the more complex song structures that would appear on subsequent releases. The proof is in songs such as the unrelenting "Desperado," the commanding "Be My Lover," and the direct "Under My Wheels," all Coop staples. 50th Anniversary gatefold 180g vinyl LP reissue from Friday Music, mastered by Joe Reagoso at Friday Music Studios and Capitol Records in Hollywood. |
