There's not much to say here. Aliens are using women in their breeding ground to make more aliens. It's sexist, vulgar, and offensive... but outlandishly so. Grab some beers, lower your expectations, and have a blast.

Proceed with Caution!
This is "Dice" just before he reached his peak (with two sold out shows at Madison Square Garden). Everything you've come to love/hate about him is here. His dirty poems, his chain smoking, his ability to tear apart the audience and all aspects of his beyond-foul mouth. If you can put up with sheer filth, and can see "Dice" as the anti-acceptor of the sexual revolution of the late '80s, then this is for you. Proceed carefully, lower your guard, and prepare to laugh.

Micheal Bruce - Alice Cooper = Not Bad
I was surpised to find that this album was never officially released in the US. It's not perfect, but it's not worthy of an eternal shelf. When not ordinary, some of these songs are pretty good. For me, "Lucky Break" is the highlight. If Elton John or Billy Joel performed the same song, it probably would have been a hit. Instead, we get Michael Bruce, a major talent behind the original Alice Cooper group, debuting his solo-self to an audience that never came. Bummer. There's a lot here worth remembering.
