Alice Cooper has a new EP coming.
The artist announced that a six-track EP titled Breadcrumbs will be released later this year. Per the label, the forthcoming album will pay tribute to Detroit City, touting the EP as a “tribute to the garage rock heroes from his hometown.”
According to Billboard, Breadcrumbs will feature covers of Bob Seger’s “East Side Story,” the MC5’s “Sister Anne,” Suzi Quatro’s “Your Mama Won’t Like Me” and Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels’ “Devil With a Blue Dress On,” a re-work of “Detroit City” from Cooper’s album Detroit City 2020, and a new song co-written with Wayne Kramer, “Go Man Go.”
Cooper started recording the songs in Detroit during March and wrapped up recording in Los Angeles. He told the outlet earlier this year of the album’s sound, “There’s a certain Detroit sound we’re looking for. It’s indefinable. There’s a certain amount of R&B in it. There’s a certain amount of Motown in it. But then you add the guitars and you add the attitude and it turns into Detroit rock. I feel like if we mine around with all Detroit players, we’re gonna find that sound.”
Breadcrumbs will also be available in 20,000 numbered 10-inch vinyl versions worldwide.
