Product Description

While Alice Cooper's late-'80s comeback was a success largely on the strength of his ever-popular stage show, his albums of the era, 1986's CONSTRICTOR and 1987's RAISE YOUR FIST AND YELL, failed to reap mass commercial success. All of this changed with 1989's TRASH, his first platinum-certified album in nearly 15 years. The album's top-10 single "Poison" made fans of '80s glam-metal fully embrace Cooper, a man who had almost single-handedly created the genre.
As he did on his past couple of releases, Alice worked with one of the day's top producers, Desmond Child, who was known primarily for his songwriting talents (including hits for Aerosmith, Kiss, Cher, and others). Also, TRASH included several guest appearances from some of rock's top names--Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi play on "Hell Is Living Without You", while four of Aerosmith's five members appear at variouspoints throughout. Other album highlights include "Bed of Nails", "House on Fire", and the title track.

Amazing
Trash is such an amazing album...this is one of the best shock rock albums you could ever want to hear, the album contain my favourite and his most memorable song of all time POISON which is the reason I brought the album in the first place then to my discovery being blown away by the rest of the songs just being kick-ass and fantastic.
This is one for all Cooper fans worldwide...if yourjust getting into Alice then I would start by getting this one first as like I said it contain POISON the song that changed alot of people including me the first time I heard it.

A Rock Masterpiece!
I really find it hard to believe that a reviewer rated this album only one star! "Trash" was my first Alice Cooper album and one which I still play constantly. It is a superb album which you will find yourself playing over and over again and it really did deserve every bit of it's outstanding success.
Stand out tracks for me have to be "Poison", "House Of Fire", "Spark In The Dark" and "This Maniac's In Love With You" but there isn't a dud in the whole track listing, it's just great rock!
Do yourself a favour, ignore any bad reviews, buy this album, turn up the volume and enjoy it over and over again..

Trash Alice Cooper
The title of the album says it all really!! after the magnificent Raise your fist and yell, i was expecting another killer (no pun intended!) album. what i got was Bon jovi in an Alice cooper sleeve!! a different direction was an understatement! gone was the make up and so to was the Alice attitude, this much dilluted collection of songs ranges from balled to soft rock with chorous ridden cheese! I can appreciate Alice wanting to explore new horizons but this is not what you would expect from Alice.
