Powerplay 200 August 2017
INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
The Godfather Of Shock Rock, Alice Cooper delves into the world of the paranormal on his explosive new album and will perform live with his original band exclusively in the UK later this year. The focus is our 200th issue and 20th anniversary celebrations, including our top 100 albums of the last 100 issues, our best live shows, the past present and future of all our favourite rock genres, the lost legends of rock, WTF were they thinking? and much more. Accept’s fourth album since their reunion and Cats In Space’s sophomore release are the big news this month, along with the cool new offering from Paradise Lost, the surprising debut solo album from former Pantera bassist Rex Brown and the delightfully upbeat new record from Walter Trout. We also interview Udo Dirkschneider, Quiet Riot, Power Trip, Masterplan, The Tangent, Triggerfinger, Jonny Lang, Dead Lord, Simo, Mind Enemies and Jake Samuel’s Kryptonite.
