Its an unhealthy hatred. They are the most gimicky merchandised insult to music in general. It grows with each day. Im a reasonable guy and its hard for me to HATE something, but there is no redeeming factor here. I cannot stand this group. They are so despicable that I cant stand the mention of their name or to hear anything about them. The absolute antithesis of anything "rock" or "creative". I dont know why I couldnt contain myself not to make a whole thread about it, but I cant hold it in and want to know who shares my feelings.
If you like Kiss and want to post here, be ready for my wrath that will be absolutely no-punches-pulled. Definitely the most overrated band of all time. Its one of the few things in life that inspire a rage when I hear of them or any of their songs. I will add to my commentary but first I want to hear anyone who agrees?? Fucking crock of shit merchandised commercial corporate rock. I understand that all of its a business and everyone is in it to make money, but these guys from the word go are unashamedly after the dollar and have no intention of being average musicians or even expressing themselves in a creative manner.
Im under no illusions that everyone else to some extent is the same, but I suppose its the way KISS went about it. Its just a matter of time before it happens to any genre, I know that. Just like a decade ago, rap became a complete mockery of itself and has only gotten worse, but its like I channel all of that frustration into a few select things. KISS is definitely one of them. So I dont want to hear a lecture about how they arent the only ones and how everyone is out for a buck and how there is no nobility anymore in sticking to your principles and all that bullshit. Ive made this thread solely to share my hatred of KISS with the masses and for us to congragate and share thoughts on this topic.
I suppose all of this started because of the continued soul-sucking of classic rock and how its become trendy to like some really awesome bands. Like the commercials for "Rock Band" and seeing all these trendy kids in 200 dollar jeans jumping around with fake guitars. Fucking shame. And how everyone thinks its cool to throw up "I love you" in sign-language instead of the actual "devils horns" sign in pictures. People who have no fucking business doing so seeing as they have no fucking idea what they are doing. And how commercials make it unbearable to listen to songs that I have been loving for decades. Now I cant hear The fucking Who without thinking of these CSI assholes. Im just frustrated that it had to get here. Oh, AND HOW THE FUCK did IGGY POP become the theme song for CLUB MED or ROYAL CRUISES or whatever?? How absolutely at the opposite ends of the spectrum can you get??? The definition of upper class, bloated, self-indulgence taking IGGY fucking POP's song and having it as their theme song.
Thank you for listening to it. Now that Im on the inside of the industry, its just really frsutrating to see whats going on and whats been going on for some time now. It doesnt look like its going to change either. I just had to unload, I dont expect to change things with my rants, so I dont want to hear anyone lecturing me. Thanks.
