How fucking great is this? KISS' lame-ass cover only proves the original's excellence.

I can't tell if the shambolic quality is the band or the recording, but I dig it. The delay is a little distracting, but it's easy to see how these guys challenged the Beatles' supremacy in America for a bit.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑27 Apr 2018, 7:50pmHow fucking great is this?

I think the fuzz is intentional as other recordings are cleaner sounding. It's pretty much archetypal garage rock.Kory wrote: ↑27 Apr 2018, 8:11pmI can't tell if the shambolic quality is the band or the recording, but I dig it.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Does this mean the members of KISS have shrunken testicles and severe acne on their backs?

Good lord but that bass sound/line is immense. It could solve any five problems and cause six more.

Re: The Mighty Musical Observations Thread
Between people being upset about the Thermals breaking up and the man from Frightened Rabbit dying, two bands I have without exaggeration never heard of, I feel like I've had some kind of stroke. I guess this is what getting older is.
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

Yup. That kind of ignorance has less and less effect on one's life, tho. All kinds of entertainment/leisure-related stuff that used to seem vital in terms of identity and connection to others gets more and more ephemeral.
