Why can you compare KISS to the Who, Zep, Stones, Eagles, etc? Look at the numbers m’fer. 26 albums…all but 4 went to at least gold, and a good share of those went multiplat.
That’s really enough to be said…more albums sold than the who, stones, etc. So…22 albums with a gold or higher rating.

Also their influence…I cant even begin to name the bands who have cited KISS as their main or near main influence (most of 80s hair metal, a good portion of 90s grunge)…just like the Stones, Zep and the Who.

The fact that they still play to big crowds…after 30+ years…just like the Stones, Zep and the Who. Headlined a show of 500K in Brazil. Who else has played shows like that? Zep…The Who? Pink Floyd? Hmm…

However I am realistic, Gene is a money hoarding jew. However, an album produced by Paul, its very intriguing. Its also a big sign that Gene might be letting up.

If you dont like KISS, that’s fine, but dont discredit them as a washed up 70’s band like BOC or Cheap Trick. Because their numbers and their fan base dictates otherwise.

No Ace Frehley, no interest.</p> Remember their last album, 1998 (not 88)’s Psycho Circus? Wasn’t that atrocious?

Paul Stanley compares KISS to The Who, The Stones and Zepplin? That's like Kanye West comparing himself to someone who can sing in tune or write an original tune, or Britney comparing herself to someone who can sing - period. What's wrong with Paul Stanley comparing KISS to these other bands? Oh, a little thing called reality. And Gene! Gene whines about not getting paid! That's a reality check waiting to be cashed. I hope they both return to the back of the garage that birthed them, so they can find comfort in the mothballs of which they so richly reek (and deserve). Spare the world, guys, and spare yourselves the embarrassment. Stay in your coffins, you greedy, bubblegum zombies.</P> Hmmm… Paul Stanley compares KISS to The Who, The Stones and Zepplin?
