Alice Cooper - Along Came A Spider
| Billboard | | Our favorite shock rocker returns to the conceptual realm on his 25th album, with a tale of a serial killer who wraps his victims in silk (that's the color of their eyes, no less) and cuts off one leg to use in creating his own arachnoid appendage.
