Yeah KISS are has-beens and were really never that talented as musicans. But that is missing the point, these guys were and are about getting copious amounts of split-tail and generally liveing decandent -sex fueled life. And I would say they were successful.
@... Teutonic Logic – 10 Internets for you for getting the point!
Besides, without the Kiss branch on the rock-n-roll tree we wouldn’t have Slipknot, Marilyn Manson or ICP.
They also look better than a lot of pictures I’ve seen from the 70’s…
@...macio: fail; some one would have come up with it eventually, if they never took off some one else would have so thus i can say i enjoy slipknot manson ect and hate kiss

I dont know if you can really safely say that. I am not a kiss fan, they are not talented at all, but they influenced a lot of people and they are one link in the chain. If they werent there the branch could have gone in different directions. But even though I dont think you can take KISS out of the equation you can still hate them even though you love their offsping. I hate, I mean really hate Husker Du, but they spawned the pixies who I love so much.
Not talented? Depends on how you measure talent. Is it by their technical ability? Then your sort of right (Ace Frehley had some rippin solos)
I would measure talent by how good the songs are, not how technical or difficult to play they are. And I happen to love KISS’s music. Obviously they are money grabbing whatnots, but damn they have some nice songs and put on one hell of a show!
What a bunch of cocksmokers.
with a lot more money than you’ll ever see

i was alive when this picture was taken
Possibly the ultimate failband.
I still don’t get why one is painted up as a pussy cat.
I should have known it when you dressed up like Peter Criss. Nobody wants to be Peter Criss, not even Peter Criss!

I want to rock roll all night “and have a really good time”
