Radical Face, “Holy Branches”

Cooper chose the name Radical Face upon seeing it on a flyer. He later found out it was a plastic surgery flyer saying ‘Radical Face-Lift’ with the word ‘lift’ ripped off. One of his singles “Welcome Home” was played at the beginning of the first episode for the T.V. series “The Returned”.On November 16, 2010, Cooper released a six-track EP titled Touch The Sky, which serves as an appetizer for an announced trilogy of albums called Family Tree.

Leading up to the release of The Roots, The Bastards: Volume One EP was released track by track. The first album, titled The Roots, was released on October 4, 2011. In August The Roots was accidentally released to users outside of the US on iTunes. The Roots will be followed by The Branches and The Leaves. Clone, an album by Ben Cooper and Richard Colado, was announced to be released through Bear Machine Records and available by fall of 2012. After many delays, the first track of Clone, The Laboratory, was released on September 23, 2014.

The album was released in acts, Cooper adding one act per week to release the album. Each track has a full explanation of the act available at projectclone.com. ‘Laser-engraved crystal thumb drives’ were designed as an alternative medium for the album.
