KISS Is Rocking And Loving It The Sun
The self-proclaimed hottest band in the world, the painted, stacked boot-sporting heroes who got your reviewer into the world of rock n' roll aged 12, are back.
No, seriously, they're REALLY back. 35 years young, the band have miraculously recaptured the spirit, heart, and sound of classic KISS. Guitarist Tommy Thayer sounds more like predecessor Ace Frehley in his heyday than, well, Ace Frehley does.
Demon Gene Simmons, as well as trademark sleazy vocals, produces his best bass work in years while Starchild Paul Stanley still has the voice and the pen for a massive chorus.
Sonic Boom is the classic sound of a legendary band rocking out and loving it. Who expected that from KISS 2009?
