Very Stonesy, and a good example of why they shouldn't be written off as cock-rockers.
KISS just sound like a pale imitatation of everything.

Curfews have been curbing

Its complete bullshit that KISS sells everything. Ill belive it once KISS sells cars. After all...they owe it to the fans.

KISS Song of the Day...

Pretty much blows the bitty Stones version out of the water. I really like Ace's laconic voice, better than Stanley's mewling and Simmons' over the top guttural tones.

For Kiss, it's not bad. Better than I remembered, anyway.

It even has a poll!
I assume that this poll allows for multiple contradictory votes and has several categories that overlap?

Are you suggesting that Heston works for the CBC? (That would explain all the contraception stories in the food section of the site …)

Pop, certainly, but I don't hear anything Beatlesesque about it.

Not even in the call and response vocals? Or the three part harmonies?

The melody doesn't strike me as Beatlesesque.

That's because the steroids nullified the melodic content.
