Comments on: The Buzz Declares War on KISS http://clodsofsodom.com/?p=296 A blog exploring the nature and wonder of skull-bursting, brain-melting, face-pummeling mÖtherfücking METAL Sun, 20 Sep 2009 02:18:55 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Scott http://clodsofsodom.com/?p=296&cpage=1#comment-1184 Scott Mon, 14 Sep 2009 20:03:29 +0000 http://clodsofsodom.com/?p=296#comment-1184 Sadly everything KISS does, especially these days is a scam. Don't believe me, take a look at those two impostors trying to play like and imitate Ace and Peter, that's as low as you can go. The fact that Gene/KISS promotes one thing and does another like not playing in the city that cast the most votes doesn't surprise me one bit. Gene has made a career out of pretending to be "all about the fans", a real rock n roller, and someone who's all about telling it like it is. To bad he's none of the things he pretends to be. I don't just blame Gene or KISS however as I would ask this. Who's worse here? KISS or the fans who continue to support them no matter who they imitate, who they mimic, what current band they try to sound like, produce albums sold as KISS but really feature very little playing from certain members of the band, etc. People keep supporting the "Gene and Paul" project perhaps out of nostalgia or perhaps they're just willing to accept anything with the name KISS on it. Peronally I'd prefer to go see a good KISS tribute band, at least we know those guys are imitation artists and they're not being sold as KISS.
