(Gibson) Alice Cooper says that his new song, "I'll Bite Your Face Off," was inspired by the early work of The Rolling Stones. The song is the first single from the forthcoming Welcome 2 My Nightmare album.

"This is my tip-of-the-hat to early Rolling StonesNME. "This song was begging to be in the live show. We've done it in four different continents now and no one had ever heard it. By the second chorus, the whole audience is singing 'I'll Bite Your Face Off.' It's the perfect little three-minute hit single.". Like in 1964/65 when their songs were very Chuck Berry-orientated. They just feel so good, in the pocket," he told

Cooper went on to say that he didn't have a problem discussing the inspiration for his music. "I don't mind showing people where I get my songs from," he said. "I can guarantee there were times when major acts took an Alice Cooper song and said, 'We want it to sound like that.' Because I've heard it and recognized it. I see it as a compliment." more on this story
