Dragontown (2001)
Dragontown is the 22nd studio album by Alice Cooper. It was released in 2001 on Spitfire Records. Like Brutal Planet, the album displays a heavier metal style than many of his previous releases. It peaked on Billboard's "Top Independent Albums" Chart at #12, and the Billboard 200 at #197, his lowest album chart performance since 1983 s DaDa, which did not chart at all. -Wikipedia
Critic Reviews
Show All-
Metal Storm
If you like Alice Cooper, you'll enjoy this album, if you don't like him, then you won't. Simple as that.

All Music
From the blitz that is "Triggerman," which opens the album, to the crunching conclusion, this album is so good that it appears Alice has already landed the job. Listener beware.
-
Rolling Stone
2001 - Dragontown is quasi-tasty stuff — sometimes exciting, other times a little ponderous — from an old pro with plenty of miles still left on the odometer
-
Pop Matters
2001 - Dragontown suffers from wallowing in the kind of concept album mush that only diehard fans could possibly care for
-
Drowned in Sound
2001 - there are enough gems contained within to make it a worthy addition to your ‘must buy’ list
-
Angelic Warlord
After Dragontown opens with its six best songs, the album goes downhill from there in that the rest of its material does not always hold up under repeated play

Metal Reviews
awful ... What a shame, because first song Triggerman is a killer, actually one of the best song of Mr. Cooper since a long time.

Daily Vault
2001 - an engrossing album from start to finish that contains a depth rarely seen in rock these days
-
Ear of Newt
2017 - brainless, boring pseudometal
-
Metal Temple
2002 - I can safely say that all songs on offer here are top notch, with not a single disappointment
-
Metal Storm
Dragontown follows Brutal Planet to resounding success: thunderous, hellish, disturbing, and bent on sonic torment. These songs writhe with devilish fury and bleak grimness /5

Rough Edge
DragonTown is one of those CDs that continues to grow on you the more you listen to it.

Don Ignacio
a great nu-metal album
-
Only Solitaire
one more fun ride through everybody's favourite twisted mind
-
Mark's Record Reviews
one of the best albums he's ever made
-
Metal Temple
2002 - it's hard not to be enthusiastic about an album such as this really
-
Feo Amante's Music
a fun CD
-
Cross Rythms
2002 - I feel the lyrics are very poignant and considering he is not a CCM artist, the lyrics put a lot of woolly CCM wordsmiths to shame.
