Description: Raise Your Fist and Yell by Alice Cooper [CD] Track Listing: 1 Freedom 2 Lock Me Up 3 Give the Radio Back 4 Step on You 5 Not That Kind of Love 6 Prince of Darkness 7 Time to Kill 8 Chop, Chop, Chop 9 Gail 10 Roses on White Lace Alice Cooper mounted a successful comeback in 1986 with his CONSTRICTOR album and tour, which showed that Cooper's extended hiatus from the stage hadn't dulled his shocking theatrics in the slightest. A follow-up album was issued almost exactly one year later, RAISE YOUR FIST AND YELL, which was very similar in sound and approach to its predecessor. Dokken/Stryper producer Michael Wagener lends a pop sheen to Cooper's trademark macabre metal. Muscle-bound guitarist Kane Roberts again collaborates with Alice on all of the tracks, while future Winger leader, Kip Winger, joined the pair in penning the ghostly ballad, "Gail." The album-opening rocker, "Freedom," is a slam against the P.M.R.C. (a group that successfully got warning stickers placed on albums it deemed controversial), while "Roses on White Lace," "Chop, Chop, Chop," and "Prince of Darkness" proved to be standouts as well. --- In the mid-'80s, Alice Cooper was able to crawl out of obscurity and rebuild his cult following. Though 1986's Constrictor and the supporting Nightmare Returns tour hardly commanded mainstream attention, the album and tour were his most successful in years, proving Cooper still had enough life to launch a full-fledged comeback. Not even a year after the release of Constrictor, Cooper released Raise Your Fist and Yell, which is more of a return to his dark thematic role than its predecessor. The album is obviously rushed and suffers similar flaws to Constrictor, most notably its large amount of filler. Nonetheless, Cooper manages to sound energetic and charismatic throughout the record as he sings about his three favorite topics: sex, rebellion, and death. "Lock Me Up," "Step on You," and "Not That Kind of Love" are dripping with traditional Cooper sleaze, while "Chop, Chop, Chop" and "Roses on White Lace" seem reminiscent of Cooper's Welcome to My Nightmare days. With Raise Your Fist and Yell, Cooper embraced his past while still managing to sound fun and exciting. All things considered, it still seems surprising that 1989's Trash completely deserted Cooper's menacing, villainous role. After all, Raise Your Fist and Yell, though far from a highlight, showed Cooper was still able to provide both rock anthems and theatrical experiments -- and do it rather well, for that matter. ~ Barry Weber, AllMusic Shipping^ - Order typically "ships" within a business day after receipt of cleared payment ("Delivery" information provided below)."FREE Shipping" via USPS Media Mail** (Per US Postal Service [USPS] delivery may take up to 3-4 weeks.
