From Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame drummer, song writer and founding Alice Cooper band member, Neal Smith, comes his latest killer album. The third in his solo KillSmith series. This conceptual metal adventure will undoubtedly be the last rock opera, destined to become a movie!

The story of a poor boy who grows up in the jungles of South America, then becomes Diablos the Emerald King, the most ruthless and powerful drug lord in the world. As a young boy he makes a discovery of an ancient secret that has been hidden for thousands of years in pre-Columbian jungle ruins. The secret he discovers is an ancient sacrificial drug called GreenFire. As GreenFire’s deadly addiction spreads like wildfire around the globe, it reaches a country called Blue Soul Land. The havoc it creates in Blue Soul Land will unleash the rage of KillSmith with grave consequences. “GreenFire Born Of Poison” is the first single off of the album.
