For criminal actions, violence on the stage, for being a brat refusing to act your age, for all of the citizens you enraged, you can go to hell! And this begins the followup to Alice's masterpiece "Welcome to my Nightmare". After the awesome Go To Hell track, the album really peters into soft mulch with some embarrasing compositions that Alice thankfully never returned to in the live set.

Never has an artist fallen so far from grace. This album is a turkey with only one decent song. There are some woeful tracks on here that are cringeworthy, namely the appalling You Gotta Dance and the plainly idiotic I'm the Coolest that will feature in the 'what were they thinking' hall of fame for years to come.

The mediocre soppy ballad I Never Cry is passable I guess, but songs like Give the Kid a Break are corny beyond belief. I'm Always Chasing Rainbows is equally sickening. 2 stars for the one brilliant song. What a mess.

not as bad as you think, still a weak effort; Alice Cooper had worse albums than this one - Special forces and Zipper catches Skin are far, far worse than this one. Flush the fashion is not that good either. Worse than this one anyway.
