| | Alice Cooper's Brutal Planet @ NSO |
 | | Though there were a few subtle references to Christ, like in “Brutal Planet,” Cooper’s show was, this time, more about pointing out the weakness, seduction and futility of evil, than it was about offering an alternative. |
 | | Brutal Planet, his latest release, is also very good, but much harsher. |
 | | As you might expect, some of Brutal Planet's lyrics are heavy, and Cooper expects some flak, particularly when it comes to Wicked Young Man, in which the protagonist talks about having 'a pocketful of bullets and a blueprint of the school.' |
