This really is a modern Cooper classic !!
The opening track Sideshow starts with a great accoustic intro before bursting into a great guitar riff that drives the song ahead. Bad Place Alone, Lost in America are classic Alice rockers that really deliver pulse pounding riffs. Stolen Prayer is a really great song, heart rending desperate lyrics coupled with fantastic backing vocals from Chris Cornell and great accoustic guitar work make this a fine song. It's Me has to be one of Alice's best ever ballad's and is sung with real feeling.
The only low point for me is Unholy War but the album fully merits five stars. If you are not a Cooper fan, check this album out it is very accesible and musically very tight.

With The Last Temptation Alice Cooper has possibly, if not definitely, created the best album of his solo career. From the opening 'Sideshow' with a guitar riff that simply reeks of classic rock, to the almost desparate cry of 'Stolen Prayer' to the best in freaked out music with 'Cleansed by fire', The Last Temptation picks you up and doesn't let go-ever! The concept of the 'Alice Cooper House of fun and horrors' will scare and thrill you. You cannot call yourself a Cooper fan without this album!

This Alice Cooper masterpiece begins with the party and sick humour of Sideshow which fades into the perfectly pretentious and haunting Nothing's Free before rocking through the comical throat-slasher Lost In America. Keeping this musical freight train alive is the witty and sinister Bad Place Alone. You're My Temptation drops the pace despite keeping the weak-hearted gasping for breath with its' spooky ending before the ballad of of decpetion and cruelty Stolen Prayer touches anyone who has ever felt cheated. The album fades a little after this despite the wonderful ballad Its' Me but picks up again to end the album in a gloriously creepy burst of energy just when you thought it was all over.

Weirdly, this is a better Alice Cooper album while not being as good as Hey Stoopid which was not a very good Alice album (?). Read more

Fantastic
Not all of Alice's fans remember his 'glory years' of the early seventies. Some of us weren't born then. Read more

Step right up, for the ride of your life.
The blisteringly visceral rock music on four Alice Cooper albums - 'Love it to Death' to 'Billion $ Babies' - accompanied me though many a formative bungle. Read more

really good - got me into Alice Cooper
I was totally surprised by this record - I'd heard a couple of his previous tracks (notably Poison) and thought I'd get this just by chance really. Yep, it rocks! Read more
