For some reason this album is missing the Palaces Of Montezuma (Cenzo Remix), which I actually kind of like better than the original.

And Nick Cave didn't even write that one.

Yeah, I was 3 or 4.  I've been a fan ever since.

Dragontown is all about Hell.  Elvis in Hell, nuns who have sex in Hell, the characters from Brutal Planet in Hell…  It's nearly disturbing.  He gave up on the theme for a couple of albums so he could try to cash in on the garage rock revival of The Hives and The Vines and bands like that, but Welcome 2 My Nightmare…

You might recommend staying away from most of his stuff from the late '90s to the present.  Alice has become the Jack Chick of rock - Evangelical Christian albums gleefully describing the torments of sinners in Hell (like YOU if you don't change your ways!).  It's really off-putting.

Thank God there are still 100% genuine artists that are exactly what they appear to be out there, like Alice Cooper and Gillian Welch and KISS.

This Lana Del Rey backlash is the epitome of hipster snobbishness:
