Munich (dpa) - From the point of view of old master Alice Cooper (73, "Poison"), today's rock bands are back where they belong: "Today's rock bands are outlaws again," he said in an interview with the German press agency.
“I think that's exactly how they should be.
These young people should really try something dangerous, so I would want to play something dangerous if I were in their place. "
Cooper became known as a shock rocker.
His bloody stage shows, in which a guillotine plays an important role, are legendary.
"Our band was once very dangerous, but I know that I can't shock anyone today," he told the dpa.
"The times we live in are more shocking than anything I could do."

On Friday, Cooper, whose real name is Vincent Damon Furnier, but claims to have only been called Vincent by his mother and Keith Richards, will release his new album.
He dedicated it to the city of his birth and named it “Detroit Stories”.
