Happy 30th Anniversary to the Alice Cooper album Constrictor. The album was Cooper's comeback album after a three year layoff due to his addictions to alcohol and his marriage nearly falling apart. Though this was Cooper's first album since 1983's Dada, it's the first in nearly a decade that sounded like an Alice Cooper album with his albums between 1978-1983 being experimental. The album introduced Cooper to a newer generation and began his heavy metal period. This was also the first album to feature the awesome Rambo-like guitarist Kane Roberts and Kip Winger. The songs "Teenage Frankenstein" and "He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask)" appeared in the movie Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives while "The Great American Success Story" was rumored to be for the Rodney Dangerfield movie Back To School.
