Powerplay 232 August 2020
INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
Deep Purple breeze back into our lives with a ‘Whoosh’. “The BBC would never play anyone like us,” says Roger Glover. “We were much too heavy. We just carried on regardless and it was all about the music, and the fact that we became successful meant that the success was on our terms, and not anyone else’s.” Dee Snider extols the virtues of being a true frontman, Avatar go primal and find their heavy groove, Kamelot join the ranks of the few bands with a must have live album, and we continue our series of rock city explorations with New York. Also this month, we chat to Axel Rudi Pell, Pain Of Salvation, Blues Pills, Heathen, Lionheart, Dukes Of The Orient, Lionville, Savoy Brown, Jim Kirkpatrick, Blind River, Mike Ross, Damnation Angels, Stämpf, Vantage Point, Karobela, White Crone, and Felix Rabin.
