In interview, the shock-rock legend Alice Cooper talked by Greta Van Fleet success. He says that the band proves that rock and roll is not dead.
He said:
“Guitar rock, no matter where rock goes – it will go to punk, it will go to grunge, it will go to disco, it will go to this, that and this, but the one music that never dies is that sort of modern Chuck Berry hard rock that The Stones do, that Guns N’ Roses do, that Aerosmith does, that Alice Cooper does.
“That’s the kind of music that will just not die. There are bands right now – look at Greta Van Fleet. There’s a band who said, ‘It’s been a long time since Led Zeppelin was around; let’s be Led Zeppelin.’
“People are ready for a new Led Zeppelin, so guitar rock, once again, is going to take the forefront.”
