I like the songs, but am not too crazy about Paul Stanley's vocals. I really like his guitar work though. Gene Simmons may very well be an asshole, but I prefer his vocals. As for the rest of 'em - never "got" the hype about Ace, and both Erics are (/were... RIP) better drummers than Peter.

I´m just the opposite. I like majority of the songs Paul sings. Not too excited of songs that Gene sings. God of Thunder and I Love It Loud excluded. And I prefer the 80´s albums to the stuff they recorded in the 70´s. Although Destroyer is an excellent album. Favourite line-up is the one with Bruce and Eric Carr.

Great thread. Yah. To me Kiss was at it's best with Eric, Bruce, Paul and Gene. Fireworks and costumes don't impress me. Songs do. They wrote songs, toured them, and that's it. None of this condoms, fragrences, coffee shop Kiss.

Kiss lost me as a die hard fan when they started putting other people in make up. That was it for me. That and the lack of new material. I'll respect the music but that's just about it for me, sadly. They've completely tarnished their past.

yeh i agree for once

although bruce is 10 times the player ace will ever be ace to me was always the clown of the band the one who lightened the mood and for that reasonm i think ace was much more a valuble member than bruce

as for gene simmons hes a really nice guy who gets slagged of to hel for being honest, i dont blame him.

paul is a great singer much better than gene, his voice is so unique and he is deffinatley in my top 3 frontmen

peter criss i always thought was a mediocre drummer until i saw the unplugged and then realised he was like the rough diamond of the band. although once again eric carr is technically much better than peter

to be honest im really liking the make up and pyro approach, its unique, was new at the time and makes kiss who they are

although i have to say some of pauls best lyrics came out when the make up came off eg tears are fallin, everytime i look at you etc.

but these days i think that theyre only in it for the money which is sad and i dont think i will ever see thi band perfomr live again

But how can you judge PC's Drumming on the Unplugged show? I mean the only time he was playing drums alone was 2,000 man.

And he ****ed even that up. He was so bad even when Eric was playing with him. And on the Reunion and PC tours he was awful. Much like Ace on guitar.

Agreed. I remember on the Unplugged interviews when Peter made it sound like he was going to be nice guy and give Eric the drum parts and he'd just keep time or whatever. It just seemd so forced, like he knew he could never compare to Eric Singer.

I've never been the biggest fan of his drumming.
