In the early 1970 s, ALICE COOPER S unique brand of SHOCK ROCK complete with elaborate, satirical and highly controversial live performances were the sensation of the day. The cross-dressing, part punk, part rock, part glam confusion of the NEW YORK DOLLS pushed the genre. KISS took over SHOCK ROCK and gave it a shot of adrenaline, fire, makeup and blood.
