I like it but I always felt like it was just meant to be a placeholder between Killer and Billion Dollar Babies. It's a good album just nowhere near the level of those two.

So that's just the one with the big hit which is why it's well known?

Blue Turk is another great song off of it, I just heard it the other night! School's Out is a great album. Killer and Billion Dollar Babies are just a step above even that.

Pretty much. The title track sounds nothing like the rest of the album which is very experimental with its sound. If you're only familiar with the hits then you may not know that Cooper can be very versatile and experimental with a lot of his material. Especially back in the 70s. While there are albums where the experimentation works great, there's other times where it doesn't work as well and School's Out is one of those kind of albums for me. They seem to be doing odd stuff just for the hell of it without any rhyme or reason.

I think School's Out attempted to double down on Alice's theatrical side more than anything. There are days it doesn't work for me, but when it does it works like my favorite Queen albums or slap-stick cartoons and musical theater. I guess you have to have some kind of taste for that for it to hit, and even then it may not. I stand by Blue Turk though, great song through and through.

What are the good heavy metal Alice albums?

 

Earl I thought of you last night when I was watching the UFC main event from Vegas, Poirier vs Hooker. I thought wow let's throw Earl Ramer into one of these UFC fights, he's bound to be entertaining for a while! It's your future Earl don't fight it, just FIGHT! :D-13:

 

Hahaha! You are funny. I'm 52. I'm in good shape and walking 5-6 miles a day. UFC fights? I would be knocked out on the first punch.

 

I prefer Hawaiian Punch. Wait I don't drink that crap. Hoping to watch the whales in Maui next early spring. "HEY STOOPID!" I'm not that fuckking stoopid to get in the ring with a pro fighter.

There's drugs you can take that can keep you in the fight, just pop a few pills and you can take about a million punches! You'd be fine in there Earl!

 

Do you like the METAL-era of Alice?

Absolutely Lorraine. Even the art work and packaging is the best!!!

 

I know J2112 thinks I'm a poser, but I am sure you all know that the original cover of "Love It To Death" has Alice's thumb hanging out looking like his penis. Classic.

 

Hmmmmmmm...... Best Alice Metal albums?

I'm looking to get most if not all the albums, probably not the early 80's ones though.

Brutal Planet is an amazing album musically and lyrically.

 

It does have "tinges" of industrial, but I wouldn't say it is a full on industrial metal album.

 

Earl, I encourage you to revisit that album...I think you'll appreciate how great it really is.
