Alice Cooper Goes to Hell is an album by Alice Cooper, released in 1976. It was the sequel to his previous album Welcome to My Nightmare. Written almost exclusively by Alice with guitar player Dick Wagner and producer Bob Ezrin, this comically chilling concept album continued Cooper's legend of perverse, provocative brilliance.^[1]

With the success of "Only Women Bleed" from his first solo effort, Alice continued with the rock ballads on this album. "I Never Cry" was written about the matter of Alice's drinking situation, which would in one year send the performer into re-hab. As quoted by Cooper, the song was "an alcoholic confession".

As recently as 2005 the first track Go to Hell was featured as the theme song to the 6th episode of Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil titled Human Sacrifice.
