But thats it and the original members only had a partial role in these.
Partial as in they wrote and played the main instruments on them you mean?

Just as you find it unbelieveable anyone can actually like this pile of crap, I find it equally amazing that an Alice Cooper fan, who says he has liked many of Alice's past styles changes, doesn`t like this, his best album in many many years.
It's a great shame that when Alice partially does what some people have been screaming for for many years some of these same people slate him for it.

And lastly, I would defy ANYONE here, without already knowing who plays on what songs, to know that the original band play on 'Runaway Train' or 'I'll Bite Your Face Off' (There is a few seconds at the end of 'Hell Comes Home' that sounds ACG-ish I think so I'll give you that one).
I wouldn`t mind betting if you didn`t already know, that you'd be happily slagging them off as well. Luckly for you we'll never know.

I would have easily picked out When Hell Comes Home as a song with an original member on it. Runaway Train is just a good song made better by Vince Gil's smokin lead and IBYFO (for me) is an OK song that seems to be growing on me. The fact that the originals are on these are either just a coincedence or proof that they can make his music better.

Do you have evidence for this? I mean the "entire" part.

Actually he's been doing that since 1970 or so.

Here is a question:

Chuck Garric co-wrote "A Bad Situation", and played bass on "I Gotta Get Outta Here".

How does Chuck Garric feel about having such a minimal role in the making of W2MN, considering all the years he has been part of the Alice Cooper lineup?

Exactly and it would be laughable for anyone to suggest that they did.

Well, they're two different things. However, why don't you ask him and let us know the answer.

How would any of us know how Chuck feels?

Well based on the "evidence" that this is what he's done for 3 decades after the release of a record suggests it.

That and the announced sequel that never came to fruition = lack of consumer recognition or demand.

That doesn't 'suggest' anything.

I'm not denying that. I asked you specifically about the "entire" reference in your statement. Not that you would know, because you're just shooting off your mouth based on assumptions and perceptions, but at the very most, the original intention was add a four our five song segment of songs from "Along Came A Spider" in the "Psycho - Drama" tour, but as we know that didn't happen either. There was never "an entire ACAS stage show planned and scraped".

Since this thread is called "W2MN....Reviewed". We should keep it open for people who have not heard the album, or read the reviews yet.

I think we have put our "2 cents in" long enough...let others talk about their feelings on the album, or submit reviews online.

Here is a review....

and another review....

and yet another review...

>He did..

NOT IN THE EXTRACT I QUOTED. He added that as an exception. That's why I quoted the following part of what he wrote:
"And lastly, I would defy ANYONE here, without already knowing who plays on what songs, to know that the original band play on 'Runaway Train' or 'I'll Bite Your Face Off' ."

I DID NOT REFER to "When Hell Comes Home".

>Can we lock this thread now?

Why? Is it getting a little too hot or something? Also, in your original post, you wrote "When Hell Comes Home is the only track worth saving in my opinion." However, now you're telling us you like three of them.
