Hello everybody,
I've recently become quite interested in KISS, and I would like to start a discussion about the band. This isn't a comparison between KISS and Queen, I'm not interested in that. What I'm interested in is how you feel about the band; do you like them or hate them? Thanks for taking the time to read my post and I look forward to your replys. Thank you.
Take care...
Steve
I used to be scared to death of Gene and Co.when I was a kid,but looking at later years I can see why people admire him and the other members that have came and went over the years.
They look cooler with the makeup on and the only album I have is their concept album THE ELDER,which I like a lot.
His new show Family Jewels is pretty funny and the man himself has certainly a way with words in conversations.
I'm glad Paul has finally released a new solo album as well,can't wait to see what Peter and Ace have in store from what I heard.
Anyways,that's all I can think of to say of KISS. They're pretty good,but I love QUEEN and other bands lots more.
My first big exposure to KiSS was when a friend of mine (who, given 14 years of hindsight, shares pretty much NO common interests with me, but he was the only one who stuck by me during High School!) brought over a video with pretty much all their music videos on it.
I was all for it during the 70's stuff, I began to recoil in horror during the filmclips where they weren't wearing their makeup anymore. Not only did they look worse-than-daggy, but the music was just too offensive (in an 80's way) for me to handle.
Having said that, I'm sure we all know that miming "God Gave Rock And Roll To You" is the solution to war, famine and poverty.
I like them without the make-up, like in the MTV Unplugged sessions. The change was nice, it should be done once in a while. I really like "Rock and Roll All Night"...
