Why is it always KISS? People are making the mistake of treating KISS as musicians. They are showmen and good at their job. The music is just the background. I saw them live once and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen.
Also, KISS is enjoyable to listen to. I'm not putting on headphones, taking my choice of medication, and having a transcendental experience.
I'm Shouting Out Loud. I'm Lickin' It Up. I'm Rock n' Rolling All Nite (and Partying Every Day). I'm Detriot Rock City...ing.
To me a lot of hate comes from the showman part. They toured too long. Last time I saw them in 2014 or so, I walked out. It was awful. The music was the music. The show was painful.
