I know I'm in the minority, but I liked this one better that Brutal Planet. It's Much Too Late, I Just Wanna Be God, such great songs.

A very,very good effort by rock legend, Alice Cooper. I don't think Alice has sounded this good in years. Most of the tracks are hard driving and I like Alice's style on Dragontown. Definitely one of the three or four best discs I heard in 2001. Cooper's career is on the upswing again.

I have always had a great respect for Alice Cooper. The man is a legend and some of his 70's work is unbelievable. While he was always a "little out there" for some of the mainstream, the man is a legend with his trademark theatrics,vocal style, etc. However, that was a long time ago. I knew that Alice had continued recording and still toured annually. However, I have been snakebitten before. Many great acts form the 70's and 80's are now mere shells of themselves. I figured Alice was much older now and knew that he was now an avid golfer and businessman. That just had to mean he had lost his chops, right? I decided to take a chance on the Dragontown album. I had heard his last CD from last year called Brutal Planet. I was surprised at how good BP was, but I still wasn't sure Alice still had it. Well after about two or three listens of Dragontown, I am hear to tell you that Cooper is the exception to the rule. This thing is as good as his classic stuff. I can't believe how powerful Alice still is, and fans of the louder side of rock would be advised to buy this masterpiece. Hope you are around for a few more Alice, because you still have got it!

Bought this CD, the day it came out and was floored by how good it was. Nobody is better than Alice at clever lyrics. This is one of the few CD's from 2001 that never leaves my CD player. The song, "Fantasy Man," is the catchiest Alice song in years. I can't fathom why Spitfire Records did not release it as a single.

Despite Cooper's age, this guy consistently puts out some of the best albums in hard rock/metal. Alice's vocals sound great on this. I really liked last year's Brutal Planet CD but Dragontown is even better. It maintains the heaviness of BP, but the songs are more diverse. It has elements of his modern stuff, along with the classic 70's material and even the 80's stuff. This is a nearly flawless Cooper album. Bands such as Zombie,Slipknot, and others acknowledge this guy as the king of shock rock. Give Alice a chance and you will be blown away. This guy is still one of the best performers in hard rock/metal.
