Even the return of Dick Wagner couldn't save 'Zipper Catches Skin' for many people. But in fact it's arguable that this is a much better release then the preceeding 'Special Forces'. Certainly 'Zorro's Ascent' is a great track and 'I Am The Future' (from the b-movie horror 'Class Of 1984') has a lot of atmosphere. In fact once you get into it there really isn't a bad track on the album, it's just not what most fans want to hear from Alice Cooper. |
