Alice Cooper turns 75 years old today and Powerwolf is celebrating with a massive cover of "Poison." The cover sticks to the original's hooks while adding in loads of their own orchestral flourishes, making for an excellent rendition of the classic hard rock track.

“Over the years we have released several cover songs to pay tribute to artists / bands that we personally hold in high regard," said Powerwolf. "With 'Poison,' Alice Cooper has created a timeless classic and we could not miss the opportunity to celebrate his 75th birthday (on February 4) with our own version."
