    Throughout, this is the sound of the Alice Cooper band playing with revitalised vigour and tangibly loving soul, riven with the unexpected “left turns” Alice credits to Dunaway and Smith. .... The Alice Cooper band and Ezrin have produced 2025’s most faith-restoring rock’n’roll set, that does their fallen comrade proud. [Aug 2025, p.100]

    Today, with so many artists (and AI platforms!) keen on copying old production motifs, it’s the immediacy of the recording—and the heartbeat underneath—that stand out the most here.

    50 years later, these demented rock & roll outsiders pick right back up as if no time had passed at all, and they have a blast doing it.

    Discount the fillers, which are of high, if throwaway, quality and you've a strong 12-banger cracker of a record. [Aug 2025, p.72]

    The Revenge of Alice Cooper is filled with engaging guitar and blistering solos. Alice sounds in good form. Most of these songs fit in perfectly with his larger catalog.

    The result is a fun mix of over-the-top hard rock, self-reflection and self-aggrandisation. [Aug 2025, p.29]

    Ultimately, this isn’t a classic Alice Cooper record by any means; it has a few good songs here and there, but nothing canonical. But, if the point is to document a bunch of old friends getting together and doing the thing that gave their lives meaning, and sounding like they’re having a blast, then it’s mission accomplished.

    Buxton's posthumous appearance on the raw, Eddie Cochran-esque What Happened To You also shines, but elsewhere things sometimes get formulaic, the horror cod and the guillotine a little blunt. [Aug 2025, p.77]
