Raise Your Fist and Yell was the 1987 release by Alice Cooper. It features the track "Prince of Darkness", which is featured very briefly in the John Carpenter film of the same name, in which Cooper has a cameo as a murderous vagrant. The song can be heard on the walkman of one of his victims. A musicvideo were made for "Freedom" which also became the albums hit single.

The album continues the splatter film trend created by Cooper's previous album "Constrictor". The track "Lock Me Up" features a guest appearance from Robert Englund, who portrayed Freddy Krueger in the A Nightmare On Elm Street series. Kane Roberts returns as the musical driving force of Alice's return to the music industry.
