Reviews (page 3 of 8)
Sounds fresh and new - not like 1973. The production quality is excellent. Didn’t expect to enjoy this album but it’s good.
Some highlights , but about as expected. Not that good
Not at all what I was expecting for Alice Cooper. Meh? It’s ok. Basic 70’s rock. Had to skip several songs because they just didn’t do it for me, especially towards the end. Torn between 2 & 3 rating, bumping to a 3 because of No More Mr Nice Guy. (3)
A bit too Rock for me
Ágætis rokk og Alice er flottur. Frægasta lagið áberandi best. Soldið sull inn á milli en gaman af því.
Good roadtrip rock. Really liked it and I might even bump up the score on a relisten.
I've always thought of Alice Cooper as a novelty act. The music comes across as just a vehicle for absurdist performance art. Unfortunately, they aren't terribly clever. So the novelty, such as it is, wears off pretty quickly, and there isn't much of artistic substance to take hold of one's attention/imagination. Everything about this production is pretentious. And the juxtaposition between the cheap and tawdry themes and the overwrought theatricality of the arrangements sounds more juvenile and silly than ironic. That said, No More Mr. Nice Guy is a legit tune.
Solid middle of the road rock.
The Svenghoulie of music.
Appropriately this is my 666th album, and I thought I knew what Alice Cooper was, and maybe the benefit of a few decades seems to mellow him out, but it was not at all what I expected
This probably set the base of the rock of the 80's as a record. Theres a lot of influence in this. My favourite it's "No More Mr. Nice Guy"
🫤 standard 70’s whatever
Surprising how solid it was. Fell apart a little at the end.
This is another album I enjoyed more as a "connecting the dots of music history" than the album itself. I hear the influence on The Stooges, Bowie and surprisingly the Beatles, and I hear how it influenced the likes of Green Day and Soundgarden. Much more camp than I was expecting. I spent most of the album thinking "I thought Alice Cooper was darker than this"...then came to the final track and there it was.
This kind of cartoonish, overwrought, shock-for-shock’s-sake kind of thing has never been my taste. But I acknowledge this is a great example of the style
A lot of it felt middling. High 2.
High 2 (might deserve better) but I got bored
Starts strong but ends disappointingly. Elected is the highlight.
The fact that Alice Cooper’s music is not for me is no reflection on his ambition or talent. He is there to entertain listeners with an amusing, flamboyant, glam form of hard rock. It is my dislike of hard rock that makes it hard for me to fully get onboard with what he is doing, but I have to admit there were multiple points across the tracklist where he made me smile and I was impressed at just how elaborate the performance was.
It’s scraping a low 2, it got my foot tapping and some of it has decent melodies and fun bombast, but i do hate most of it
This album was disappointing. I thought Alice Cooper was a more hard/metal figure, but this just sounded like The Beatles but rude. This is not meant as a compliment. Still, it was okay.
I’ve only ever heard the hits and now I know why. This was not that great, it was an ok glam rock album. It’s weird, Coopers look/act does not match the music. This is straight up glam à la New York Dolls. This is so tame, and not that memorable. The songs are pretty boring.
I had never put on Alice Cooper end to end like this. This album is great. Maybe it just surpassed my expectations but I like the backing tracks and I like his singing style. There's some classics on here
Enjoying this so far. The first three tracks were pretty good! I liked the horns in Elected. Gave it an oomph that some of the others didn’t have. The title track was fun enough. The Bond-esq guitar in Unfinished Sweet was pretty great. No more Mr nice guy was a bop. Slightly changing it up with Sick Things was very welcome. The piano in Mary Ann was good and I love the Dead ended it alright! Overall, there were a good few enjoyable moments in this album, but it didn’t really hit for me. 3/5 ⭐️ 80/1089
A peculiar but fairly pleasant glam-rock sound. I can't find much to criticise, other than the songs being in an uncanny valley between ultra-wacky (think Aladdin Sane-era Bowie) and catchy. It's a valley Bowie himself often falls into, along with the likes of Brian Eno, Iggy Pop, and T Rex. Now, let's be honest: the singing isn't great. In fact, I daresay it's bad. But considering how much worse it gets in the 70s, I'm willing to give Cooper a pass. Why there's a track called "Raped and Freezin'", I have no idea. Cooper's belting out an excited, upbeat tune recounting how he was chased naked through the Mexican desert by a prostitute. I want to fault it, but dang it, the rock sound is so good. And Elected continues with much the same energy, this time prematurely celebrating an election win in the good ol' U.S. of A. And this time, the instruments are arranged and performed so darn well that I have to love it. Great bassline during the main horn hook that can easily be missed if you're playing this in the background. Billion Dollar Babies, too, is deserving of a large amount of praise. That shredding on the guitar, together with the low, powerful second guitar holding down the excellent riff... the vocal improv throughout the piece... Undeniably great. No idea what's going on in the proggy Unfinished Sweet; it's somewhere between espionage plot and UK national anthem knock-off. The first track on side 2, No More Mr. Nice Guy, stands out as the obvious pick for lead single. Heavily harmonised lead vocals in a chorus which is itself repetitive yet exceptionally catchy? I don't even need to look at the number of streams. (It's still a good song, though.) Generation Landslide makes the album's political messaging crystal-clear (if it wasn't already), and also takes a Sympathy For The Devil approach to texture-building – though it could just be the understated-yet-hasty drumming that gives that impression. Also, I-VIIb-IV progressions are always a win. No idea what to think of the loudly unsettling Sick Things, but it's kind of good, I guess. The weakest so far, though. Great piano line in Mary Ann, but nothing that constitutes particularly great songwriting. I Love The Dead is a hilarious tune to end the album, but it isn't particularly strong. It just has a chorus that's going to cause me to bang my head against a concrete wall in a couple days. 4/5 Key tracks: Elected, Billion Dollar Babies, Generation Landslide
Well yes Unfinished sweet reminds me of club penguin, it's like a mix between the detective theme and surfing theme We started off strong, but it just got a bit weird towards the end
This album completely ripped apart my pre-conceived notions of Alice Cooper. I’d classified him as a novelty artist in my mind having only heard some of his hits. I always enjoyed them mind you, but they felt an oddity even still. This album gives many Bowie albums a run for their money. How’s that for a review? It’s pure glam rock and it’s awesome It’s hard for me to rate any album 5/5. I’m doing it here for the exceeded expectations alone. I often think a 10 point scale would be better.
Better than expected
Entirely forgettable.
Fine
Too bad the only song I liked musically on this album talks about necrophilia…
I am catching up on some albuns I left behind as I am on a break from the project, and, this was surprising. The instrumental is really good and easy listening rock which is quite contrasting with the dark content of the lyrics. 3/5
enjoyable!
Don’t mind but I don’t get what all the fuss is about.
Although considered more of a novelty act now I was a big fan of Alice when I started listening to music. Couple throw away tunes here but mostly good rockers
I don't think I've ever actually listened to Alice Cooper before. I didn't realize they were established so early, I always thought of them as more of a late 70s glam rock kind of band. Like other early "hard" rock, the sound isn't as hard as their reputation.
At 13, Alice Cooper was one of my gateway artists into the proper world of rock music. He introduced, to me, shocking concepts in a song, the idea of being provocative and "edgy", which to an impressionable young man like myself, was alluring for both the right and the wrong reasons. Billion Dollar Babies was one of the records I latched onto for a period of time, and yet it's been nearly 10 years since I last heard a single track off this record. I've always been more of a "solo Alice" fan - Welcome to My Nightmare and Goes To Hell come to mind - but this is a record that shines and sparks in the wake of the post-Ziggy glam explosion. It's a fine line between cringe and confident in this genre but this one steers towards the confident. I will say that it's lost all of the shock for me a decade later, but as a document of time in my life where songs like "I Love The Dead" sent a genuine chill down my spine, I look back on it somewhat fondly. If only that level of innocence were still so common.
Meh
I throughly enjoyed this fun and energetic rock album from Cooper! The thing about Cooper is he doesn’t have the best voice but he is such a showman and each of his songs are very theatrical that it works for me. Overall, I enjoyed this album listen and I look forward to listening to more Cooper in the future!
Not really a fan.
What an odd album
I’ve known of Alice Cooper but hasn’t given him a chance other than his big hits. Wasn’t expecting this album from him, at least not this style, given what I knew. Probably not a 4, more high 3.
Brought out the teen boy in me. Lyrics amused me, and musically mixed it up more than I expected.
Totally enjoyable, but probably a “you had to be there” album. Live, it’s probably a riot. On its own, it plays like the cast recording of a very weird musical.
This was super fun. I need to dig into the catalog more. Felt like a cross between T Rex & Thin Lizzy
So much respect for creating what he did. And for his legendary cameo in Wayne’s World. The music doesn’t grab me though.
Rock!
ENERGY Fun title track!
Not my thing, but honestly, I liked it.
I love his voice but was meh on the album
me espero algo onda kiss, algo glam, mas con el nombre que tiene que suena a re glam rock y con lo que escuché de alice cooper no fue tan glam, es mas, no fue glam en absoluto. por momentos me hizo acordar a pink floyd, pero con toques de rock pesado y mas comercial, definitivamente es un buen album y lo volveria a escuchar completo
2.5
For me, this is the ultimate Alice Cooper album. There are loads of classic albums that get praised because people think they should praise them. This one deserves it. It is catchy, weird, clever and properly memorable. No filler, no drop in quality, no sense of just padding things out. Just a great band at their peak making an album that still sounds fresh and full of personality.
For some reason always a surprise when I listen to Alice Cooper. Great 70s rock album
I don't like Alice Cooper and this album maybe moved the needle 1% towards appreciating him now.
Classic Alice. Hard outter layer, just an old softie in the center.
Netter gitarrenlastiger Rock-Metal aus den 70ern. Kann man gut hören, richtige Highlights habe ich für mich nicht gefunden. 3/5
It’s nowhere near the worst boomer rock thing from the 70s, which is more of a compliment than it may seem.
ну таке остання пісня це про шо..
1970's rock. Some questionable topics and takes. Only 1 standout song. This isn't a standout album. Pitchfork: n/a Rolling Stone: n/a Best Songs No More Mr. Nice Guy
Oh I really enjoyed this. How have I not heard this before? Fun, theatrical, musically interesting... all good ingredients. Plus proper track to track albums that feel like one whole piece of work rather than a collection of songs is always high scoring for me. The opener 'Hello Hooray' lays out the stall of the show to come. I smiled and giggled through the tongue in cheek storytelling that doesn't take itself too seriously, but the music is accomplished and tight - some delicious chord progressions, use of orchestration to create a really big sound. Brill. Having been warmed up by the opening track I'm not that bothered about 'Raped and Freezin', despite the fun outro. Elected brings it back home with a fab back half of the song, grand chord progression and some triumphant brass. Into the title track 'Billion Dollar Babies' is great too. Middle part of the album less memorable on the few listens I've given this disk, but Sick Things grabs my attention again. Love its pace. A bit silly, dark, deep bass, toms, brass, satisfying chord progressions. Yeah. Dead Thing is shock rock hilarity. Bit sick, but funny. Would definitely listen again. Close to a 5* album for me. Might just hit that final star today. Number tracks 10 Fave track: 8: Sick Things Others: Noted above. 3/3/26
I kinda think "School's Out" is a more interesting album than this one, honestly. I wouldn't choose to listen to this album again.
Really good album, last track was a real disappointment though
It’s okay. I haven’t listened to much Alice Cooper, but I was a bit surprised by how tame it was. Definitely not what I expected compared to his look. 2.5/5 Probably won’t listen again
I had low low low expectations, but it was actually really fun.
Let’s be honest: Alice Cooper in 1973 was less of a rock star and more of a theatrical menace with a budget. Billion Dollar Babies is the peak of that "more is more" philosophy. From the moment the title track kicks in with that iconic drum fill, you know exactly what you’re in for, a lavish, slightly oily cocktail of vaudeville, hard rock, and the kind of macabre humor that makes your parents want to call a priest. It’s peak Alice Cooper Group, and they sound like they’re having almost too much fun spending the money they’re singing about. That said, while the highs are sky-high (I will defend "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and the sleazy charm of "Elected" until my dying breath), the album does suffer from a bit of "look at me!" syndrome. Some of the experimental flourishes feel like they’re trying to hide the fact that the songwriting is occasionally spread a little thin. It’s a spectacular circus, sure, but sometimes the clowns overstay their welcome just by a hair. It’s theatrical, it’s campy, and at times, it’s just a little bit exhausting. 7/10
3.0
Not too bad. Solid rock album.
A pretty good rock album that is refreshing in its lack of self-seriousness. Cooper has a classic, rough-and-ready voice and the songs are fine. Nothing that blew me away. “No More Mr. Nice Guy” has the strongest hook and would be the obvious hit even if I hadn’t heard it hundreds of times on classic rock radio.
Shock rock is seminal for a lot of acts I enjoy today, but other than "Mr. Nice Guy" that's not a lot here to love. There's plenty to like, though.
Day776 - not as shocking as it used to be but i really enjoyed it. no more mr nice guy is a rock staple
I think most listeners would kind of have to know what Alice Cooper was all about and know his schtick to enjoy this album. There's some twisted stuff on here! I like the (dark) sense of humor, I don't think they ever meant to be taken too seriously. This brings me back to high school days hanging out in my parents basement. 3.5/5
I still don’t k ow why this was so influential. It’s not bad but also not very interesting.
Pretty solid, 3 stars
This was a lot more calm and diverse of an album than I expected, based on his earlier work with the Stooges. Not half bad, though I think it's a little aged. Faves: Hello Hooray, Raped and Freezin', I Love the Dead
ok

It sounds like the band figured out what their shtick was over the course of this album. And that is what it is: shtick. One of the shtickiest bands of all time. I knew that going into this. But, the first half of this album actually surprised me. It was fun, catchy, well performed, and the themes weren’t quite as creepy-coded as I thought they’d be. It seemed like a surprise 4-star power pop gem. But then the shtick kicked in, and the final few songs were as eyerollingly macabre as I’d gone in expecting from Alice Cooper. Look, it’s fun, it’s kitschy, it doesn’t take itself too seriously, but it’s a bit too goofy for my taste. So, a surprise 4-star first half, and an expected 2-star second half. It averages out to 3.
Artiste connu de nom, jamais écouté. Rock plutôt standard, pas très dynamique, mais avec quelques chorus de guitare réussis et des riffs accrocheurs ('Billion Dollar Babies'). J'ai apprécié aussi la batterie et l'harmonica dans 'Generation Landslide', morceau un peu différent de cet album. Pas suffisant pour une seconde écoute. =>2/5
Was never a fan of Cooper, but the work is solid and definitely light years ahead of most of this list. Listening to all the crap makes this better. Plus one for new appreciation of old classics.
I’d heard “no more Mr nice guy”. I liked “Elected”. Decent album. Maybe relisten
Middle of the road American Rock Bullshit
It's ok
At first I liked it more than I thought I would. It wasn't "clown music" as another reviewer noted. Sick Things seemed to last 80 minutes, had to skip. I read that this is a masterpiece. That is not the word I would have chosen. When I think of weird I think of Mr. Bungle, this just seemed pretty tame and maybe a little aspirationally odd. Didn't scratch the weird itch nor the rock one. I was introduced to AC with Poison, and I liked it when I was 14 because MTV told me to. Now I'm closing with Love The Dead and pretty glad this is ending. Sorry if this means I don't understand music history but this wasn't enjoyable.
I fucking hate this so god damn much
Esta ok seguramente sea pionero de este genero pero me pareció que ya escuche lo mismo y me aburre sinceramente
It was ok
Pretty basic rock. Nothing special about the vocals. Instrumentals were weak in the first half, but there were some good tunes in the second half.
This album isn't all bad. I liked the piano in "Mary Ann," but unfortunately that's it. Alice Cooper sucks.
Coming into this album, I know a handful of Alice Cooper songs already, including this album's No More Mr. Nice Guy, and I like each of those songs a lot, so I'm looking forward to listening to some more. • Hello Hooray kicks the album off with a bit of a different sound to what I expected, with a heavy piano focus, and it almost feels reminiscient of the Rocky Horror soundtrack. • I can't help but notice the similarity between Elected and I Wanna Be Sedated • I like that Billion Dollar Babies is a duet, the second vocalist adds a lot to the song and makes it stand out. I also really like the bass in this song, especially the glissando that happens a couple of times • Unfinished Sweet is very trippy. I love how the music ties into the lyrics here, it gets really weird when he's under anesthetics and comes back as the drugs wear off. • I've realised that I only really know the chorus of No More Mr. Nice Guy, the verses aren't familiar to me at all. It's a very good song though. • The acoustic guitar and harmonica on Generation Landslide is such a different sound to the rest of the album, and I'm happy to hear something a little different. • Sick Things has another really distinct sound, and it leads very smoothly into the equally unique Mary Ann • I Love The Dead is really eclectic, and the way it starts to fall into pandemonium before landing back on its slower chorus works well. The completely different outro is a bit jarring, and the sudden stop makes for a memorable end to the album A really enjoyable album. I don't think this album has my favourite Alice Cooper song on it, as none of the tracks clicked with me the way Poison or Schools Out do, but it's a very consistent album with a lot of solid songs on it. Favourite song: No More Mr. Nice Guy
I was never a big fan of Alice Cooper tbh, except for a select few songs. Some really unique songs here. Fav song is ‘No More Mr. Nice Guy’.
this was ok
Alis kuper
Didn't really enjoy this one. It had none of the energy or verve that I like from good hard rock, and the second-last song was genuinely ass.
This was probably more revolutionary in 1973 but since it is over 50 years later, it’s just kinda fine. I did like the production though. His voice could’ve easily gotten grating but I thought it was mixed well with the music.
Perfect listen for the local boomer bar, but outside of the slightly nostalgic No More Mr Nice Guy there's very little I actively enjoyed. I will say that this level of glam surprised me out of a 1973 album; it feels way closer to an 80s sound to me. Standouts: Unfinished Sweet • No More Mr. Nice Guy
Unfortunately this album doesn't live up to the experience of seeing Alice Cooper live, and i was disappointed by the seeming difference in energy between that and this. However, I did enjoy the really crisp production and the use of instruments and sound effects. Wasn't totally on board with what they were doing but they accomplished their goal of making a dark but funny and theatrical album.
Look/reputation: great Music: soft and mostly rubbish
Yeah he's rubbish. In the Napster days I used to have his greatest hits and it was dreadful. Poison is alright. School's Out is cheesy AF and overplayed and... that's about all I can remember. All fart no shite
Me gustó la composición, pero no es el tipo de música que suelo escuchar
I like Alice Cooper. This album is not my favorite one, but Billion Dollar Babies and No More Mr. Nice Guy are the masterpieces! 'Hello, Hooray', 'Elected', 'Sick Things' and 'I Love The Dead' are perfect.
Holy SHIT this was boring. I thought Alice Cooper was supposed to be some sort of demonic weirdo? The album was fine, but in no way do I understand why the hell this man courted any controversy whatsoever. He's absolutely harmless!
I’m glad this sort of glam rock has been left in the past
This is my first time listening to a full Alice Cooper album. I had only previously heard a couple of Cooper tunes, including "School's Out". "Billion Dollar Babies" seems to be a paint-by-the-numbers 70s album. Just average glam rock stuff. The darker songs like "I Love the Dead" sound cheerful, compared to their subject matter. 3 stars for "Billion Dollar Babies"
weird and not interesting
Ooh, I loved this. Less musical theatre than their last offering on here. Some good tunes, interesting lyrics and great musicianship on display. Unexpected high 4 for this one
Generally don’t like the whole performance rock but this was fairly well done and I even liked and knew a couple of songs
A 3 hour train journey yesterday and the 42 minutes of listening to this was not ideal
Always wondered who Alice Cooper was. I now I know.
I did enjoy the James Bond music
This surprised me. I'm not quite sure what I was expecting but it wasn't what I got. A name I recognised of course, but I don't think I could tell you the name of an Alice Cooper track or pick it out of a lineup before today. I'm actually still not sure I can. Not a bad experience but just a quite, quite odd album. There's some really good music here; glam rock with excellent guitar work and plenty of hooks. But it also sits alongside some bits that I think might be gothic comedy prog?! On repeated listens, the weird stuff has just amused me more and the more straightforwardly enjoyable stuff has stood out more, which can only be a good thing.
1.9/5 I really liked No More Mr Nice Guy but that's about it.
The only thing I find shocking about this is that people listen to it on purpose.
My only frame for Alice Cooper was the 90s Metal iteration. He was way more inventive in the early 70s. Recommend the 50th anniversary edition of this album as it contains quite a bit of live tracks and frankly sounds like Alice put on a helluva live show back in the day.
Alice Cooper's been around for longer than I have, which is saying something, though this album's marginally younger than me, and personally I think it's one of his better ones. Quite a few of the tracks have stood the test of time, and there are rockers out there today who are still trying to do what Cooper was doing back in the early 70s. Yeah, maybe I'm biased, but this one gets a full five stars.
start was good, but second half is mid, after 6th song everything went bad
I enjoyed it. Like the theme of the album a lot and they did a good job with it. Definitely some highlights.
Alice Cooper, a pioneer in being obnoxiously "transgressive" for shock value and making incredibly mediocre music for white guys to feel edgy about listening to.
Not an album I found especially interesting. There was the odd song like ‘Elected’ that was more compelling, but most songs just seemed to meander to nowhere in particular. Maybe this seemed more subversive in the early ‘70s, it sounded like trying too hard in 2026.
I'm a fan of the early-70s heavy rock sound, so I enjoyed this well enough musically. That said, with the exception of ‘No More Mr Nice Guy’ which I liked a lot, the songs are mostly just decent (no particular outliers either positive or negative). The title track, ‘Unfinished Sweet’ and ‘Generation Landslide’ were probably the best of the rest. The band’s tongue-in-cheek, horror-styled shock-rock lyrics might have been transgressive at the time, but today they seem very tame, even a bit quaint. Certainly they're schlocky and gimmicky, which does limit their appeal. Still, there’s enough to merit 3 stars.
Rather hoped it would be harder hitting than it was. All in all a bit of a disappointment
Paul McCartney would not have "sung this better", John
Straightforward rock with some dramatic flair thrown in. Mr. Cooper knows how to entertain. Rises a cut above standard classic rock. 3.5 stars.
Subversive heavy rock, pretty fun. Worthy of Uber regarded classic

Ezrin polished up the Alice Cooper band and ended up with a great rock album with some really catchy singles. Haven't played for a while but still sounds good 53 years later!
Surprised me. Quite a good album through and through, a lot of depths for the early throws of this genre.
Not as bad as I thought after reading about the album’s subject matter. Still nothing interesting here that’ll keep me coming back.
Jeg kan like litt theatralsk rock og tittelsporet er en klassiker, men det er sjeldent så theatralsk som det burde være. Ulikt hva jeg pleier å gjøre, lot jeg albumet fortsette å gå etter det var ferdig, og det som kommer er masse live-versjoner. Synes faktisk dette er bedre. Ikke nok til at det swinger en hel karakter i noen retning, men det gjør meg sikrere i at det fortjener 3ern.
Sjekker Last.fm og ser at Billion Dollar Babies er mitt 93. mest spilte album (jeg har scrobblet siden 2008). Det var nesten tilfeldig at jeg oppdaget det, fordi jeg kjøpte det på CD fordi jeg visste at Donovan sang på tittelsporet. For Donovan var jeg stor fan av, og er vel fortsatt. Jeg tror Alice Cooper, som på dette tidspunktet fortsatt var et band og ikke soloartist, ofte blir satt litt i samme bås som en del glam-rockere. Men glamrock er jo en såpass vag sjanger når man tenker at den skal romme både Cooper, T. Rex, Elton John og New York Dolls. Av alle ligner kanskje Cooper mest på Ziggy-perioden til Bowie. Og det er jo bra! Musikalsk er det det mest interessante albumet til Cooper. Selv om de var mer psych på de første platene, så er de langt mer gjennomtenkte her. Åpningssporet er ment å være cabaret møter hardrock, og det funker overraskende bra. Du har riffrockeren «No More Mr. Nice Guy», mens på «Generation Landslide» høres det ut som en spirituell arvtaker til «Bob Dylans 115th Dream» og flere av låtene hans fra samme tid. Ja og avslutte med nekrofili-allsang. Det er smått genialt at alt henger sammen så bra som det gjør. Tekstene er subtilt drøye, og smart skrevet. Ting man egentlig ikke syns er gøy blir plutselig uimotståelig morsomt, og det føles bare feil og pirrende. Så skammer man seg kanskje litt over alt det mørke i deg Alice Cooper klarer å lyse opp med det ubehagelige lyset sitt. Plata er kognitiv dissonans, at det skal ikke være mulig eller lov å lage lystig musikk om overgrep eller nekrofili. Men de klarer det uten å fremstå som edgelords. Jeg hører ikke på plata så mye som jeg pleide å gjøre, men da jeg hørte den igjen så var den til og med litt bedre enn jeg husket.
Herregud, dette starter jo dritkult. Ikke hva jeg hadde forventet av Alice Cooper i det hele tatt. Håper dette holder hele skiva! Nå har jeg hørt hele og det holder seg! Veldig positivt overraska. Før jeg hørte dette trodde jeg Alice Cooper var et shitty ballerock band alla Jon Bovi. Så feil kan man ta.
2a från både mig och pappa. Lite tråkig rock. Pappa tyckte inte ens att det var speciellt rockigt, bara tråkigt.
Diggade det ändå till en början, uppfriskande med rockig rock utan hämningar. Men höll inte intresset uppe hela vägen in i mål tyvärr!
Rock!!! Kände länge inte att det gjorde speciellt mycket med mig, men No More Mr. Nice Guy är ju en banger. Sen hände det ändå lite kul grejer under avslutningen. Stark tvåa!
Mer experimentell än jag minns den. Riktigt riktigt bra rockskiva. Stark och tydlig 4a!
Mycket bättre än förväntat, aldrig lyssnat förutom Poison och School's Out (förvisso bangers).
Ouff tror fan jag ger det en femma, det är sånt jävla drag. Måste också tillkännage att jag är ganska biased. Inte lyssnat på Alice Cooper mycket alls, men just den här skivan brukade ändå spelas hemma med jämna mellanrum, när man var basic junior. Njöt varje gång.
En feg trea i brist på tid. Underskattat band?
I was not expecting to like this so much. The variety of instruments was awesome and really kept me on my toes. Generation landslide and Mary Ann were my favorites. I just appreciated the diversity of the music and how they were all done so well.
It has it's moments. It has many moments. Lots of cool changes. The songwriting is pretty creative but it doesn't really click for me into songs that I want to listen to.
This felt forced. Definitely not interested in Alice beyond a few key songs.
I didn’t expect a song about necrophilia to be the biggest earworm of this album, but so it goes. I love that you never know what you’re going to get with Alice Cooper. He keeps you on your toes! This was a super fun album, with a lot of cool variety and instrumentation that kept me engaged and enjoying the ride.
Mooi album maar je moet er wel echr voor gaan zitten om het in te kunnen nemen.
Please stop
Sounded better than School’s Out but still....this shock rock is shockingly crock
Meh
I was going in to this expecting to hate it but I was pleasantly surprised, not bad for a classic rock album
not great
Wayne Campbell: So, do you come to Milwaukee often? Alice Cooper: Well, I'm a regular visitor here, but Milwaukee has certainly had its share of visitors. The French missionaries and explorers were coming here as early as the late 1600s to trade with the Native Americans. Pete: In fact, isn't "Milwaukee" an Indian name? Alice Cooper: Yes, Pete, it is. Actually, it's pronounced "mill-e-wah-que" which is Algonquin for "the good land." Wayne Campbell: I was not aware of that Alice Cooper: Stick around. Hang out with us. Garth Algar: Cool! Yeah, we'll stay and hang around with youse - with Alice Cooper. Wayne Campbell, Garth Algar: We're not worthy! We're not worthy! We're not worthy! We're scum! We suck! (Alice has his hand straight as Wayne & Garth bow down on the knees.) I'm referencing this infamous scene due to how unexpected this album is. The Milwaukee quote plays on the unexpected intelligence that one wouldn't expect from a Shock Rocker like Alice Cooper. And of course Wayne & Garth not being WORTHY to be in his presence. I was expecting it to be heavier but each song sounded different. Even a ballad in Mary Ann. An Unexpected Harmonica in Generation Landslide. He was always Schlocky even back then. Although it is a little uneven at times. 4
Good ole 70’s rock! Some experimental things I haven’t heard before, with classic guitar riffs.
I quite like it but didnt make a huge impression
La canción del dentista estuvo buena Otras canciones cuestionables Instrumentalmente hablando estuvo bien
Neither hate nor love this album.
isn't this guy like a piece of trash? Would I listen again: No Deserves to be on this list: No 2.1
I was expecting a complete cheesefest, but this was a trashy rock record that's very self aware with how schlocky the whole thing is. Some elements do veer into the goofy territory, such as the dual vocals on the title track and some of the lyrics will have you rolling your eyes The shock factor may have worn off in the past five decades, but that doesn't stop it from being a fun listen. 'Unfinished Sweet' has a neat extended instrumental outro that shows off the band's technical chops and that there is talent behind the shock antics. This is worth your time if you are in the mood for some silly yet theatrical glam rock.
Probably scary as hell in 72, nowadays just fun goofy rock.
for 73 this was ahead of its time. early emo early hair metal early punk
I continue to be impressed with Alice Cooper. I never listened to him much until finding this website. This is the second album by him I’ve gotten, and I love it just as much as the first (School’s Out). He plays with the rock genre in a way seldom seen. Metal, folk, synth, punk; he nails it all! He mixes and swirls them together to make a musical goulash that works despite the fact that it seems like it shouldn’t. He gets very avant garde at times on this album, which usually turns me away. For some reason, it works from him. Maybe because there’s just something very Broadway about his albums that it just feels like a story with individual characters; each represented by a distinct style and arrangement. I truly enjoyed this one and hope you did as well!
Sounded a lot like Bowie. 3/5
I’d say that as I get older I have more trouble relating to music, but that’s not true and Alice copper is way older than me and I still think it sucks all these years later. Whew…
Never got into Alice- seemed too manufactured for me. Although the use of no more Mr nice guy on dead and confused is genius. So for that I’ll go 2.5.
The Mothers sang about him ... Alice Cooper, baby... woaaahhhhh, Well it gets me so hot I can scream Alice Cooper, Alice Cooper ... waaaahhhhowwwww ... Alice Cooper Alice Cooper. If Frank sings about him then you know he is up there with the best. 'Nuff said.
Way more fun to listen to than I thought it would be!
Did not particularly enjoy.
I've already listened to his album (46).
Alice Cooper very extravagantness ideas come to musicality in this album. Just was not my cup of ☕️
- Lowkey gave up after track 3. I get that its supposed to be camp, out-there, shocking, etc, but the sound isn’t anything new. I’ve literally heard 127 songs that sound exactly the same as the ones on the album. This isn’t as “groundbreaking” as the reviews are saying, it just feels like they ate copious amounts of shrooms and b-lined to the studio. Mid imo, I wouldn’t turn it off if it came on but im not exactly searching for this again on spotify anytime soon. I liked 3/10 songs so 2 stars
This is mostly noise for me - I like two of the songs and those are not memorable
I found this interesting. I was surprised.
Alice Cooper proving again that controversy sells. Despite the macabre subject matter, I was apathetic towards the album. Favorite song was the duet with Donovan (Billion Dollar Babies) ...what a strange mix of artists.
It's OK, but I don't really enjoy Alice's exploration of distasteful themes.
Never was a fan but I liked parts of it.
I like it - love it - like it .... oh, that's another album, but I like this one too!
A funny one. Classic rock with some lovely guitar but some of the songs were a bit on the odd side - deliberately so I’m sure. I’m sure I Love The Dead went down well with the broadsheets in the early 1970s.. Overall a bit of fun and enough of interest but nothing special. Compares poorly (but many would) to Black Sabbath.
Annoyingly I wrote a long detailed review on this and lost it all. Anyway bit like going to a jumble sale you never know what you are going to get. Its really excellent music but it flips back and forth and dips into themes and theatre I am not interested in. You even hear Elton John at times especially when the piano comes in. Dont think as a package it all works but certainly some excellent tracks in there.
This album swings from great to average, with a little more emphasis on average. There are some great moments of classic rock with meaty riffs and great drumming. 'Billion Dollar Babies' is a great track, if the whole album was in this style it would be a big winner. Unfortunately, a lot of the rest of the album somehow manages to fall a bit flat. It sounds like the potential for something great is there, but it hasn't quite managed to execute outside of one killer track.
I was very pleasantly surprised to really enjoy this album! From the song titles, I wasn’t sure, but I thought it was a fun time!
This is Alice Cooper? I thought all the songs (except the few hits) would be like the final song but I was so pleasantly surprised. (Aside from the last song) this album was great with songs that I could see listening to many times. I guess that I bought into the persona but only in a negative way! I’m glad that I found out how wrong I was.
Förväntade mig riktigt hård rock och vissa låtar var åt de hållet men generellt var de rätt trevlig bakgrundsmusik!
I get why it’s a classic rock album and on this list. Some great songs but not my favorite album/band.
Another one of those “I guess you just had to be there” albums.
Rock 😴 and nothing that really grabbed my attention.
Had only heard "No More Mister Nice Guy" going in, and after listening its still far and away my favorite on the album. Album was all over the place lol. I was expecting a lot more songs like "I Love the Dead", but was really pleasantly surprised by numbers like "Hello Hurray" which I could see having a place on the indie charts today.
rock album. solid 5/5.
Only reason this isn't getting the highest score is I don't want to have to defend a song called Raped and Freezin as a banger. It is though. 4 Stars.
Perfectly pleasant rock made for the radio. Well put together and easy to listen to, if hard to get excited about.
Alice Cooper is a weird dude.
Alice Cooper looks like a skinny Ozzy Osbourne but sings like he’s got a megaphone attached to his face. I’m not sure where the energy comes from, but he delivers on every track. There’s a lot more talking/screaming versus actual singing but I have a feeling that’s what his fans would prefer. The background music is serviceable with nothing more than flashes of cool riffs. Many of the lyrics have a dark undertone that matches Cooper’s appearance. I could stand to listen to this a couple of times and then would need to move on.
I’ve always found it hard to take Alice Cooper seriously. The whole image is so much schtick and always felt juvenile. Now, having listened to an album in full, I can confirm that the lyrics are basic and painfully obvious and the simplistic, sophomoric musical compositions are not performed by anyone that could be called a virtuoso on their instrument. Like a bad night at a high school Battle of the Bands.
From the first track you know you are in for a show, break out the popcorn and settle in. Billion Dollar Babies is worth every penny you paid for this ticket. I knew two song going in, I like both songs and was expecting more of that type of song, but this album threw me for a loop. Nearly as many styles as songs on this album, it's all over the place, but tied together nicely. This is a band of very talented musicians firing on all cylinders, their 6th album together and they are flying. Every track is a performance and tells a story. Some are pretty strange, one a bit cringey, but none the less they are all interesting and fun. I can help but think of the influence this album has had, this is like watching an old horror movie like Psycho. Classics that have very clear and direct influence on future pieces. There is no Marilyn Manson without Alice Cooper. This more than theatrics, they are making great music,just with a bit of a twist.
Never been a big Alice Cooper fan so it was better than I thought it was going to be.
2/3. This guy was a weird motherfucker, but the creepy horror rock vibe is pretty cool. Some solid playing, good vocals, and real entertaining degenerate shit.
4.8
Quite cool experience to listen to such album! Really well produced and catchy, reminds me a lot of later Beatles stuff/ Pet Sounds and even a tiny bit of Stone Roses. Great discovery!
It's hard rock from the 70s that stood the test of time, what more do you want?
3/5 - Classic rock quite catchy quite good - not obsessed
rlly not great
I've always liked Alice Cooper - this has got done great things on but not quite a 5 for me.
Taki klasyczny rock starych ludzi. Przyjemny wokal i szanuję prezencję sceniczną, ale no dość przeciętna ta płyta. Chyba cały rock zaczyna mi brzmieć tak samo. 6/10
ive seen alice cooper live and i was bored then too
Ehhh
Eh, it's okay. Like im not gonna tell my buddy that shit is a banger, but I'm also not gonna be like yo, dude, wtf is this. Right in the okay zone.
classic
I thought Alice Cooper would sound very differently. In the end, what he actually sounded like wasn't much better. Album just kind of happened, didn't find much of interest. I love the dead was ok.
24
sympa mais je dois réécouter
I really didn’t enjoy School’s Out when I got that a while ago but this is dramatically better. It tails off towards the end but before that it’s a really enjoyable rock album.
Actually charming and comforting somehow
i loved this a lot. never listened to anything like it before.
The first track had an interesting rock opera vibe, that most of the other songs didn't emulate. A couple of the later songs had disappointing fade-outs that seemed to show a lack of imagination.
I like that Alice Cooper isn't afraid to get a poppy while still being a " hard rock" artist. For the most part, he pulls it off without getting to cheesy and shit, but I can understand why this alienates those who would consider themselves fans of the genre.
Just the right side of schlock in this rock - earnest, grand and powerful music counterbalanced by silly, fun lyrics but with enough sincere social satire to make you suspend your gag reflex (that makes Queen unpalatable for example). Some great music that was/is underrated and much referenced throughout the 80s
We are on the fence with this one. Some of the songs were decent and the others were lackluster. It can be said that you dont know what youre going to get with Alice Cooper
I actually thought I would like this album more. The sound didn’t pass the test of time and last few songs are pretty boring.
Not bad, but not remarkable either...
More familiar with Alice Cooper’s solo career than of the band, even as an Arizona native. This album was an interesting listen, but admittedly I didn’t take time to dig much further.
Actually enjoyed this way more than I expected and added "elected" to my singles playlist.
Not too bad. I didn’t like it as much as Back in Black.
I am so happy Alice is in the world, doing his particular thing I cherish quite a few of his albums, but in 2025, most I dont play too often For this album, I would recommend the Deluxe Reissue version, for the extra outtakes, which I really enjoyed hearing again
Alice Cooper’s edge seems to have aged much like the hardcore rappers of the 90s. It was probably shocking then but just seems a little goofy now. Guitar solos were on point and No More Mr. Nice Guy will always be a bop but it just feels so performative.
Enjoyable to listen to, nothing I didn't expect but fun to hear some deeper cuts
3/5 - pretty cool, not at all what I expected, I think I mixed up Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne
Shock rock? The only thing shocking about this is how bland it is /s. In all honesty it is fine, bit nothing I would really listen to again. It sounds like if your neighbor was doing 70's David Bowie karaoke. Mid 3.
Big, loud and fun, exactly what I’d expect from Mr Cooper
Not even my favorite Alice Cooper Group album (that would be Love it to Death), but fucking hell if this isn't awesome.
OVERRASKENDE bra! Har aldri egentlig hørt på alice cooper, men dette var mye mere bluesete / 70 talls aktig enn jeg trodde! Dette var virkelig bra og gøy. Minner om bowie en slags..
I don’t really know what to think. There are a few good songs on here, like No More Mr. Nice Guy, Generation Landslide and I Love the Dead Inspired by The Who and inspiring Guns N Roses?
Boring shock rock with a few good tracks
Well, it looks as though I'm back to getting albums from repeat artists semi-frequently again. That's fine. I mean, when said repeat artists are as good as Alice Cooper, it's hard to be mad. Compared to getting a second Ryan Adams album a few days ago, having 2 Alice Cooper albums on here is a lot more justifiable. For one, Alice Cooper was on the Muppet Show and Ryan Adams was not, so Alice Cooper is better by default. I kid... or do I? For real, I do think that Alice Cooper having 2 albums on this list is somewhat justifiable, though I can't say for sure whether it's truly necessary or not. If I had to cut one of the two though, it wouldn't be Billion Dollar Babies, as I think this is a little bit better than School's Out. Pretty much all of the praise that I gave that album applies here too. The energy is strong. The band does a great job with the music. Between the two that I've heard now, Alice Cooper's albums have shown themselves to be a lot more versatile than one would expect. There's some fun experiments on here and I love it. The writing is pretty interesting. There's a reason as to why Alice Cooper is considered a pioneer of shock rock. Songs like "I Love the Dead" and "Sick Things" are playfully sinister in a way that you didn't really hear in music at the time. By this point, Cooper had already made a name for himself, which shows through the showmanship on a track like the ever-iconic "No More Mr. Nice Guy." Great song. Overall, Billion Dollar Babies is an enjoyable album. It's engaging, fun, a little spooky, and generally quite good. It's probably the better of the two Alice Cooper albums on the list, but it's a fairly close call. Great stuff. 4/5.
why did it kinda eat…
3.5
It was alright. Didn't feel like anything special. No real desire to revisit.
Det här är trivsamt, skivan rullar på och helt plötsligt är jag på låt tre igen.
Otippat. Jag trodde jag skulle gilla Billion Dollar Babies mer än jag gjorde. Missförstå mig rätt. det är en bra skiva. Det händer mycket. Det är varierat och Alice Cooper har ett välbekant röst ID som jag gillar. Men jag tycker inte att låtarna i sig är särskilt spännande. Det är ingen låt som riktigt fångar min uppmärksamhet. Jag är själv förvånad över att säga att gårdagens AC/DC platta gick hem mer hos mig. Det trodde jag aldrig.
Wait a second, Alice Cooper is good? Not “good” like the olde doods who think everything from the 70s was good… Like, legitimately good?!
Pretty fine. Props to Alice Cooper for writing something a bit more complex than the rest of the glam-rock scene surrounding him. Points taken for writing something not half as good as the classic rock scene around him. Fave tracks: - Billion Dollar Babies - Unfinished Sweet - No More Mr. Nice Guy - Generation Landslide
It’s a 3 from me
I like Alice Cooper
just listened to a couple songs
Pleasantly surprised by how much fun listening to this album was.
Man this was so much better than I thought it would be!!
Alice Cooper has a theatrical bent that reminds me a little of Meatloaf. But the music is pretty good. My favorite song is Billion Dollar Babies. I also knew No More Mr Nice Guy -- that one's OK. Some songs are a little too out there for me, like I Love the Dead.
Was going to give thisb2 stars after the first couple of songs just because of how sonically conventional it was, but the later half mixes it up a bit more. Not bad, more just underwhelming.
For whatever reason (the eyeliner?) I've had Alice Cooper pegged in my head as metal - but this album (along with the 1 other we've had) is so much more glam and theatrical than I expected. While there are some body horror and political lyrics that give the slightest punk/metal vibes, it mostly feels like Rocky Horror Picture than other hard/metal contemporaries. Either way, ultimately not my thing.
Definitely silly and also really great. There was some sort of weird magic between this band and Bob Ezrin.
This album was alright, there was one song that I knew, but the rest were alright playing in the background. Overall, it's okay but I know that it was pretty cool when it came out.
Well done
Better than I expected, but still pretty meh
It was OK I preferred the other Alice cooper album
Favorite Track: No More Mr. Nice Guy
Genere: Hard Rock Anno: 1973 Curiosità: Copper said “The whole idea behind this albums was exploiting the idea that people do have sick perversions.” Infatti per quel tempo per Alice Cooper era l’album all’apice della sua carriera
Adults who listen to Alice Cooper (or KISS) were the first Juggalos.
Nice
3.5 stars. Catchy 70’s rock album but not sure I’d ever re-spin it. Was an enjoyable listen though.
More fun than I was expecting. Its theatric but musically sound and great drum and bass riffs.
a bit boring to be honest. feels a bit dated.
This one lands squarely in the “glad it exists, don’t need to evangelize it” zone for me. Billion Dollar Babies is undeniably well-made, and it’s impossible not to respect the ambition behind Alice Cooper’s glam-horror pageantry. You can hear the money, the polish, and the full commitment to the bit. But even with all that, I didn’t find myself falling in love with the record. “Elected” is a highlight—a sharp, swaggering satire that still works—and “No More Mr. Nice Guy” earns its long-term spot in the classic-rock rotation. The band is tight, the production is crisp, and the theatricality, for better or worse, is fully dialed in. The rest of the album, though, sits in a space where I appreciate the craft more than the content. It’s not weak enough to drop it to a two, but it never gives me the emotional or musical punch that would push it to a four. It’s a solid, competent, culturally important rock record that I’m glad to have heard… and I’m equally glad I don’t have to pretend it changed my life.
Love this album, it's sort of a peak for the band great singles taken from the album. The production is in full swing here, some great songs including generation landslide. Cracking album
No private session used for Spotify. Alice Cooper is someone who associated more with his gimmick than his music. I know a few songs from him, but despite how long he has been making music, it's odd I only know a few of his songs. After listening to a whole album I can tell it's a lot of theater and somewhat bland music.
148/1001 :: Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies Heard before? ❌ Would I revisit? ❌ Rating: 6 Listen before you die: Yes This whole album felt very classic rock radio. Which, could be worse but also didn’t feel special either. I listened to these songs and thought; “wow Alice Cooper is a professional song writer”. A lot of these songs are very well constructed they just feel like they’re missing something special, and I guess that’s where the horror act comes in…
Det va litt kjedelig?
when i think of Alice Cooper i think pretty hardcore - mostly just because of his presentation. i don’t know much of his stuff. but this wasn’t super hard. it probably was for 1973 though which makes it very cool. because this is the hardest they could even conceive of back then (generalization but whatever). and it works really well to this day because we don’t have music that sounds like this anymore. because it doesn’t have to!
I was definitely already a huge fan of Alice Cooper before listening to this album to review it. But I thought it’d be like most of his albums where it’s good but it’s carried by the one or two massive radio hits. This album is not like that, it’s very well balanced. Not perfect, but very very good. There were a few forgettable songs, like sick things, and I actually HATED Unfinished Sweet. It should be illegal to use the sound of dentist drills in music without a trigger warning!! No joking aside, I actually did get repulsed by this song because of the drill noises. But aside from that, it’s a stellar hard rock album that holds up very well. I’d even go as far to say this is probably his best album, it’s definitely the most well rounded.
Ehhh...I don't know, it was okay, kinda more bland than I thought Alice Cooper was but it was better than the last two efforts I just suffered through so it gets a middling score
6/10
Fun album. Don’t think I would listen again but I like the concept and some songs.
Alice Cooper is a weird dude. This album was pretty much what I expected.
Good old time fun.
3.5
Bit expensive innit
With a driving rhythm section, strange lyrical topics and a screeching lead singer, this album is certainly interesting. It's not bad by any stretch, and has some memorable melodies, even if the sound does get a bit repetitive at times. But it is energetic, and relatively catchy, and I can see it's appeal to 70s hard rock enjoyers. Would I actively listen to it? No. But I wouldn't turn it off if it came on the radio.
An Alice Cooper Album. 3/10
vier bis fünf No more mr nice guy hello hooray I love the dead
Kind of overrated. Definitely feels like it was carried by the big hit.
Hitti biisit oli tutut. I Love The Deadja Mary Ann jäi mieleen myös hyvinä biiseinä.
It's fine. Nothing special, I expected more from such a big name.
it was ok but gave me a dark scary vibe..."raped and freezing" ? i'm good...
3.5 stars.
Never listened to a full Alice Cooper album but I was familiar with the hits. This was a fun album! Quirky at times, catchy at others. Looking forward to any other of his albums on this list.
Maybe I could appreciate it more if it were a live show - or a musical. But as an LP it‘s mostly silly (and musically quite tame)
I dig some Alice records, but not necessarily this one.
Quite good glamrock album, quite far removed from the Poison and Trash Alice Cooper I grew up with. I loved the title track and No More Mr Nice Guy, but none of the other tracks made a solid impression on me
Alice Cooper is such a fun performer. Songs are great if you don't take yourself too seriously.
The singing isn't very good.
Only skip is Sick Things. Amazing album all around. British Invasion type music.
An album that captures a moment of eclosis: the glam butterfly emerging from the chrysalsis of garage. An album that asks: what if Ziggy Stardust was a SICKO and TWISTED?! It's basic rock and roll played for high drama, leaning into the HORROR persona and SHOCKING SICKENING REPULSIVE content that would come to define the band. Even if the spectactle of the band was something DEMONIC, these are still 60s guys at heart who can't away from the damn harmonica and white boy blues rock rhythms and so musically this is pretty boring stuff. Wish it was half as SATANIC and SCARY as the pearl-clutchers feared...
Really can't stand how this album is mixed, I didn't like it at all to the point it affected my listening experience. Some lyrics are a lil too much. Enjoyed 'Generation Landslide' especially that lil harmonica break in the middle, was super fun. Wouldn't go out of my way to listen to this album again. 3/5 because of Gen Landslide, otherwise 2.
I enjoy it though don't have much of an opinion to share here.
I've heard of Cooper, nothing on this album except Mr Nice Guy. Immediately strong meh. I guess one thing about this whole task is the preceding album can have a big effect. Two mediocre glam rock albums in a row = ugh 2.5 rounded up Heard before? 1 track Owned: No: 27/104 (25%) Will I get? No
Yes!
Only ever heard No More Mr Nice Guy from this. But I kinda liked this whole album more than most of the popular stuff Alice Cooper has put out.
Decent slab of traditional rock/glam but it is dated.
NO MORE,.MR NCIE GUY NO MORE, MR YEE HEE HEE HEEE
Like it 3/5
Not a fan. Consistent song quality, but quite boring, stilted, and kind of cartoonish. It seems like when it came out in 1973, the instrumentation would have been really new and influential, and maybe the daft attitude and style wouldn't have been seen as so silly, but without any nostalgia attached to the songs, they mostly kind of suck. No More Mr. Nice Guy is decent, Sick Things really, realllly sucks
It was mediocre at best. Some catchy tunes.
1. hello -0 2. raped -0 3. elected - 1 4. dollar -1.5 5. zuueet - 1.5 6. guy - 1.5 7. Landslide -1.5 8. Sick -1 9. Mary - 0 10. Dead - 1
The title song was great. There were some other highlight, but overall just an ok album.
Good album of 70s rock classics
Theatrical concept album that’s both pure 70s and pure Alice Cooper. Couple of standout tracks with the biggest being ‘No More Mr Nice Guy’
