Trash is a studio album released by heavy metal singer Alice Cooper in 1989.
The album featured "Poison", Cooper's first top ten hit since his single "You And Me" in 1977. After Alice's return to the music industry in 1986 with the successful tour "The Nightmare Returns", Cooper had sought assistance from Desmond Child to create a comeback album. Trash became one of Cooper's biggest albums, accompanied by music videos for "Poison", "Bed of Nails", "House of Fire", and "Only My Heart Talkin'". A successful year-long worldwide concert tour in support of the album was documented in the home video release Alice Cooper Trashes The World.
The album features many guest performances including Jon Bon Jovi, Steven Tyler, and Kane Roberts, who left the Alice Cooper line-up after the 1987-88 World Tour.
