Paul Stanley Proud KISS Is Considered A Vintage Rock Act
Paul Stanley says that he feels no shame in Kiss being lumped in with other vintage, or classic rock acts -- in fact, the band is thrilled with the fact that they're now spanning there different generations with their music and bombastic live shows.
Stanley, who's out on the road with Kiss in support of their first album in a decade, called Sonic Boom, told blabbermouth.net, "I'm proud to be in the category of classic rock bands -- what's better than the word 'classic?' Are you kidding? If you want to call LED ZEPPELIN a classic rock band and then you want to call us a classic rock band, I'm not fighting. If I'm going to be lumped in with anybody, let me be lumped in with my heroes. That doesn't preclude you from being current. It means that you have a solid history and a foundation, which most bands will never achieve because they won't survive that long."
