| Alice Cooper is a true Cult Classic of Shock Rock." Like Black Sabbath, Cooper's first album was released in 1969, the same year that The Satanic Bible by Anton LaVey was published by Avon Books. The son of a minister and a golf enthusiast, Alice Cooper has been linked to the diabolical from the very beginning, stating that he changed his name from Vincent Furnier based upon an experience with a Ouija board. Infamous for his stage antics ranging from mock beheadings, electricutions, and hangings, this snake handler set the standard for the likes of King Diamond and Gwar. |
