Lick It Up is an amazing album. The title track is the weakest link and that alone says something about the songs on that album! A Million To One is one of my all time Kiss faves! Just like many fans, Gene jumped the ship during the 80’s and let Paul steer it alone. Paul was great during that era, a...

Paul turning down the opportunity to produce ”Appetite For Destruction” might have saved Guns ’N’ Roses!

They probably talked about soccer. Finally meeting someone that understands the game!

Two of the coolest bandmembers in legendary bands.
So much mudslinging going on in this business and forums like this but these guys are very seldom targets.

There’s just something with the band that makes them so unlikeable. They seem to despise their fans, they seem to dislike each other (exept that they all like John 5) and they seem to dislike playing music. I used to be a huge fan in the 80’s. Nikki & Tommy were the coolest rockstars on the plan...

I was expecting a money grabbing trainwreck but Gene both sounded great and looked cool onstage in São Paulo this weekend!
I love his bassplaying while he’s singing here:

Backer was hotter and didn't focus so much on bands that were her friends... or had her husband in them. If you just watched HBB Europe, you'd think The Almighty was on Guns/Mötley's level while in real life they were everyone's go-to opening band for a few years. Point being the show was popular n...

He didn’t host the Headbanger’s Ball in Europe, Vanessa Warwick did, and the show was as big over here. It was all about the bands/music at the time. Might be good for you to know ”over there”. If it hadn’t been Riki, someone else would have been the host and presented the videos in MTV’s prime.

And the crowd goes mild…

The band should fire him!

One of very few major bands that still seem to enjoy playing.

Gene & Paul are the winners here. Pophouse is the one with the pressure to earn back the money, and more!
I would not buy stakes in Pophouse today.

Why are they recording new music?

I wonder if Kiss’ avatars will take over the ABBA venue in London once the ABBAtar demand cools off? I actually wonder a lot of things regarding this… As an old Kiss fan I have no interest in this and I can’t imagine the kids will be excited when it finally premieres in three years. Marvel makes coo...

Her starting all live broadcast from Ace’s Facebook accounts by filming herself for a while before turning the camera at Ace tells me she’s in it for other things than ”love”. Why do we even know who she is? She keeps popping up everywhere to promote herself with help from Ace and Steeeve Brown. Thi...

The Abba team behind Pophouse buys the entire Kiss brand & music rights:

Vinnie Vincent/Vince Neil

Typical Eddie Trunk rant… The word ”I” is essential in these…

If this is the strongest track on the album (considering they released it as the first single), the album must be really crappy.
How long have they had the third guitarist & percussion guy in the band? I don’t even care who they are…

There is definitely something wrong in Vinnie Vincent’s head.

priest still keeps putting out good stuff. maiden hasn't put out a decent album since brave new world. saxon has never really had a stinker. bon jovi hasn't done anything good since have a nice day. it's really a mixed bag. i say keep making music if that's your passion not your paycheque. Agreed i...

Doesn’t matter what his name is, nobody is going to call him anyway. Nikki’s got John 5 now.

Who's a paid subscriber for Spotify? Check his streaming numbers and compare them to Jelly Roll. The title song ”10.000 Volts” has 489.000 spins on Spotify. When it comes to physical album sales it has little to do with music, it’s either his autograph people have bought it for or the different col...

Happy Birthday & thanks för keeping the Sludge alive!

Nailed it
Maybe put a sticker with ”Autographed by Ace Frehley” on it as well.

Today it’s more about selling autographs.
Put out a product you can take pre-orders on. People will pre-order before listening to the music because they want the signature. I’d like to know how many of the album buyers actually listen to it…

Is that the way Mitch Lafon makes his ”intetviews” nowdays.

This begs the question of now that Slayer are considered bona fide arena and festival headliners, would they have the clout to insist on being second bill only to Metallica if there was another Big 4 show and therefore relegating Megadeth to third? Slayer was always second billing to Metallica at t...

Not bad.

Wow!
This was actually pretty damn good!
The vocals even sounded like Ace. ”Cherry MediSon” was way too auto tuned.

This makes me sad for some reason Kind of hoped Slayer would show all the other retirement return bands that they were the real deal I respected Slayer. Not so much any more They could've just as easily taken a 5 year break and come back. More respect for that than getting lumped in with kiss, crue...
