Alice Cooper has revealed that his side project Hollywood Vampires is currently working on a new album. The band features actor Johnny Depp and Aerosmith’s Joe Perry. Cooper opened up about their progress as well as plans to hit the road in the spring. “From what I understand, the VAMPIRES are going out in June, so we’re going to have to get in the studio probably in February/March. All the guys are writing right now. Johnny did five movies this year, just so we could free up time for next year. Joe is finishing up with AEROSMITH; I’m finishing up with Alice Cooper for a while so that we can all get together and go back out on tour again. That’s a fun band to be in,” he said in a recent interview. He also offered some advice for up and coming bands: “I feel it’s time right now where a lot of young bands are so introspective . . . and young rock bands seem to lack a sense of outlaw. Rock bands should always be outlaws. That was the whole idea behind being in a rock band, was being the outlaw, not fitting in, whereas I see a lot of young bands trying their hardest to fit in. It’s either in you or not in you to have that rebellion in you, to be a rebel. Your music should have a certain amount of anti-establishment in it. It should be clever; it should be hard rock; and you’ve got to walk on stage with swagger.” Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
