What kind of influence did KISS have? What can be attributed to them? Glam Rock? That is something to be proud of

Nirvana >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> KISS

I shouldnt have to explain it, but i will if you want, KISS makes dumb music for dumb people who like to get drunk at partys and strip naked and screw anything that walks.

While Nirvana not only spent time on writing actual music rather than being more concerned with how many women they were going to sleep with but they also had great lyrics, some very beautiful melodies and and they could write songs that really stuck a chord with people...Hell, i'll even go out on a limb and say they are more skilled musicians, though that isnt saying much.

KISS took things these bands were doing and magnified it and made way more money doing it.

over 30 years later, they win.

Fat Chance.

Glam rock was around long before KISS....David Bowie, Alice Cooper, T. Rex, Iggy Pop & The Stooges, etc, you name it.

They are a big influence on glam metal however, thats right, if it werent for KISS, we would never have had....



Thank god for KISS and all the amazing bands they influenced.

Dude, you are so arrgogant. KISS was not some kind of band with a deep lasting impact. They made mindless music to get drunk to. They were more popular for their performances than for the actual music.
