Christmas as an Italian KISS fan

Post by Roland Rockover »

First off, imagine this scene: tinsel everywhere, nonna fussing over the panettone, and me, cranking up "Tears Are Falling" on my Walkman.

Decorating the tree was a total KISS affair. Picture me hanging ornaments while blasting "Heaven's on Fire" from my trusty cassette player. Festive, right? I even managed to sneak in a bit of Gene Simmons tongue action with some mistletoe – blame it on the KISS influence.

Now, when it came to gifts, my stash was like a mini KISS museum. Magazines, posters, and whatever else screamed "rock 'n' roll." I practically tore through the wrapping paper like Paul Stanley tearing through a vocal riff. HM and Metal Shock were the magazines of the day and I still have them all saved.

Oh, and let's talk KISS albums. Asylum and Crazy Nights? Those were the holiday soundtracks, man. I'd be unwrapping presents to the tunes of "Crazy Crazy Nights" and arguing with my uncle about the underrated brilliance of "Girl Gone Bad." It was like KISS was the background music to every festive showdown.

And those awkward moments? Picture explaining the genius of Asylum's album cover to my bewildered cousins. "Why the heck are they wearing lipstick and look like a painting?" they'd ask. Cue my passionate rant about '80s glam rock aesthetics.

Cheers to the KISSmas memories! 🤘
