@scpaistechina just listened to anthrax version and I think there is almost no difference. They sped it up a bit but thats about it. To say that version is better is a stretch in my oppinion.
@surf4food No offense friend,...but just how is that a good thin? I believed this asshole cared about his fans. They said so.... in every magazine I read...which was anything with kiss in it. The truth is, we made him his millions,...but he would as soon spit in our face as look at us.
@thankfullyhere I suppose what I meant was that his ego and arrogance is what drove Kiss to have the success that they did and have the rather spectacular show that they had. The way he is played a large part in making Kiss.
@surf4food Well in that sense you are probably right. I guess the guy who I use to idolize as a kid turned out to be the kind of person I despise as an adult. There is nothing wrong with being driven to reach the top. I will never be the '"Rock God" he is,...but if I had, I would like to think that I could keep my own ego in check. Come back down to earth Gene! Outer space is the teritory of the trully tallented one in the band!...The great Ace Frehley!
i am a KISS fan, & the guys kick ass! the one cd i i have is a tribute to KISS. so help me figure this out: did kiss do the song I Want You, or did someone else do that one?
KISS,ES UNA GRAN BANDA,MUESTRA ES ESTA CANCION Y ESTE VIDEO DE *PARASITE*,ESTAN LOS 4,GENE SIMMONS,PAUL STANLEY,ACE FREHLEY,Y EL GRAN PETER CRISS.SON GRANDES,ENTRE LOS GRANDES,SOY KISS DE CORAZON,ESPERO ALGUNA CHICA SEA FANATICA DE ESTA GRAN BANDA,Y PODAMOS INTERCAMBIAR OPINIONES,ATTE .....ADOLFO
0:50 Spitting image of Gene's Mother 0:55 YEAH HEH HEH!!! WOH HOOH HOOH!!! YES, YES, YES!!! You don't appreciate how awesome KISS was without live footage like this.
All things have their moment in time and these where the best years for Kiss.I still listen to the early stuff and can't really comment on their various incarnations since then because,for me anyway,they aren't relevant.The 70's......
hey 6spit..yes of course metalica replaced their bass player, van halen had three lead singers, the extreme singer tried to sound exactly like sammy hagar,and now bass player is eddies kid. (and his ex wife finally got a job..LOL) thru that in for free.) ac dc replaced their dead singer with a guy that was exactly the same in everyway voice and all!
@baretta369 " ac dc replaced their dead singer with a guy that was exactly the same in everyway voice and all"
You really think so?!? I don't see much of a comparison between Bon Scott and Brian Johnson. Their voices are completely different, and where Bon lead the excessive rock star life the hilt (which eventually cost him his life), Brian has never been about excess. I think that's what's cool about AC/DC - they moved on, but didn't try to "replicate" Bon.
Enjoy what music? "Sonic Boom"?!?! Like everything else KISS has done since the 70's, it sucks balls! If you weren't so retarded and actually read my original post, you'd note that I was giving this version of KISS props for being a great band. However, by comparison it must be pointed out how much KISS today blows! Next time I want to hear from an asshole, I'll fart! Now fuck off!
@cyberoverloaded Sure, dick lick! Because your opinion is just so much more valid than anyone else's right? "Troll" is the lamest comeback ever! Translation: "I'm too stupid to respond to your post, so I'll just call you a 'troll'. Next, you'll probably throw out the "move out of your parent's basement" comment. Like KISS today, you're unoriginal, boring and lame! So drop down and strap me a header, fucktard!
@TheRevengeOfMoth Hahahahah .....lame ass fucker...if only you could tell me that right in the eyes...you sure are a dead motherfucker :) Live & Well :)
@cyberoverloaded Anytime, asswipe! Typical limp-dicked comeback from a useless tool! Again you prove yourself an idiot. A word of advise: never get into a battle of wits when you have no amo.
original KISS is dead , present KISS sucks , Gene Simmons is greedy .... bla bla bla ... your such fuckin retarded comment isn't gonna cost em any thing ... so just shut up and enjoy music
the original KISS 1975 AWESOME!...ace came up with the title of the song when he thought about gene! gene will keep kiss alive even when hes a 100 yrs old and is that a good idea? i dont think so they been doing a farewell tour for over 11 years now you dont see other bands (acdc,metallica,zeppelin,van halen) do that replacing original members with fake imposters who must act and play like the original members now do you? (ace & peter r brilliant in this clip they rock!)
@6Spit6Fire6 Right with ya! This was KISS when they were a really cool, hard-rocking band! Before the greed set in; before the endless merchandising; before the 6-year-old fans; before the movie "career(s)"; before the unmasking, remasking; before the "farewell" tour, follow-up tour, and re-tour; before the reality tv crap; before the "I think I'm Pablo Picasso" Starchild; before the scab line-up that includes a former coffee-fetch boy pretenting to be Ace. KISS actually mattered here!
Bullshit. Kiss is whoever Gene an dPaul says it is. You don't get a vote and your opinion is worthless. Only Gene and Paul's opinion matters. Without the reunion, Peter and Ace would be bankrupt. Gene and Paul would still be touring. Tommy Thayer plays the solos correctly and isn't drunken has been.
@forevertj Thanks for your input. It's clear that you're one of the mindless KISS-sheep who don't have the IQ to formulate your own opinion, so you go along with whatever Gene and Paul say. That's pretty much what makes today's KISS fan the laughing stock of the music business. Any asshole could copy Ace's solos and stage moves night in and night out. And since I paid into the original KISS for many years, I DO get a vote and my opinion DOES matter. So kindly fuck off, moronic KISS-sheep!
Peter sings better than Paul and Gene. My opinion best of the group. Gene Worst, Ace and Paul Tie. I haven't listened much to kiss after the mid 80's, I loved them in the 70's with this lineup. I was psyched when they all got back together but it fizzled out-- the bridge show in 96 was awesome.
guys, rock buisness need some daredevil guys like gene. Admit that he was the boldest and most active form of the young kiss and promoted it in many programs and he has most original behavior on stage
For all of you that hate the "new KISS" Don't go. That leaves better seats for me. Who cares if they're not the originals. They still put on an incredibly entertaining show, and thats what I want for my money.
I wrote a song (If you're going my way let's go) that has two parts: Purple Haze influence, and Parasite influence. I start the second half off with the Parasite guitar riff before Ace tears into his awesome solo. In my opinion, the solo bridge riff is one of the hardest hitting riffs of ALL-TIME!!!
Kiss at it's best! There is no REAL Kiss without Peter and Ace. The raw power and garage aspect of this is awesome. Gene and Paul have something bad against Peter and Ace because anyone with half a brain can see how magical it was with the original four and how pitiful it is with any of the replacements. Gene and Paul don't really care a thing about music, but they used to, this video is evidence of that.
Our "Gene Hatred" is because of the band members he stepped on in order to to enjoy the success he has now. Ace and Peter were the only talented musicians in the band to begin with. If you were a true Kiss fan you would hate all the fill-in members wearing the old makeup too. I guess we see where you stand.
@DukeStarbuckle I'm a guitar player so Ace is God! I will never go see Kiss with Tommy Thayer. I hate when you wanna get a t-shirt it's got his face on it. I was lucky enough to catch them on the farewell tour, 11years ago!
it's been 30yrs WTH!? there were issues in the group, Peter said himself that he left cause just didn't feel it any more, Ace obviously had some problems,I remember theTom Shnyder show,he was F*ck'd up on somthing!! Eric did a lot of good music with them after Peter, But all this who did who what ever way or who was the better member is Bull, it's suppose 2B about the music!! can't argue with sold out arenas some kiss is better than no kiss. B about the music please!!!!
I don't care what anyone says, this is one of the best songs in the history of rock 'n' roll. Hard to top parasite. Gene is a geneious. There are few songs in the last 20 years that can top this one for guts and growl.
Love they way they don't bang their heads from front to back but they swing their heads from side to side like a dog shakin' off the water........KISS!
I watch videos like this from 1975 and think what people were thinking back then, "Make up and blood and fire? This will never work", and here it is 2011, Simmons is 62 and Paul is like 59, and they are still rock stars, still packing stadiums, still full of energy. They don't have the energy and drive as when they were 25, they are not starving anymore, they are friggin old man, but they still rock for their age. Still the best show on the planet!
Bottom line is people keep coming to the shows and buying records. I have been a fan since 77 and have seen a lot of changes. My first show was the 79 Dynasty tour. I saw them without makeup in 88, and three times since they put it back on in 96. I have not seen the current lineup, although from what I have seen on you tube an other places, they are playing very tight. I always loved Ace & Peter but if they sluff off or become lazy, the show must go on...it is a business. Thats suck but true.
kiss didnt sell out assholes. they capitalized on their success and made money off of it. if u dont like it dont listen lol makes sense, or at least it should
@TCOA7 I agree, they havnt changed their music at all. They are still the same musically. Thats all that matters. also, Gene's money grubbing is just a show he puts on. Hes not really THAT into it, you can tell by how he is with his family that he just tries to act cool and tough. KISS is the same as it's always been, the people who complain now remind me of the people who complained about Beth and I Was Made For Lovin You in the 70s. KISS is one of the few bands left that is for the fans.
As i read this comments about Gene... I have to laugh.... How Gene uses Tommy and Eric to make money..... LOL.... Tommy and Eric are in it for easy street... without Gene and KISS they would be broke. So who is using who.... Gen knows how to make money, you dont and that pisses you off... LOL
@nhlosthighway I agree. Gene and Paul nowadays talk crap about how both Erics are better drummers, which as far as technical ability they are, but if you had taken most of the songs from the first 3 albums to them, they wouldn't have been able to do them justice. I mean I love Creatures of the Night and Revenge, but nothing tops the first three albums, they were hungry and Ace and Pete were the best musicians for the material.
@loafochangeo Um actually, I did not state that they didn't change their logo. I stated that they didn't change their logo to KIZZ with Z's, but KISS with backwards Z's. Gotta keep your eyes peeled.
I am a hard core KISS fan, I know that. And I know what the German Killers album cover looks like from before.
KISS has never called themselves KIZZ. Google it...
@loafochangeo My good sir, sorry to disappoint you, but they never changed their logo to "KIZZ". I wondered who the guy was talking about because he called them KIZZ. That's not their name. They are called KISS. Simple as that.
They did, however, change the S's in their logo to look more like an S and not the lightning shaped S they usually use.
NEVER have they called themselves KIZZ.
But you are correct about the Schutzstaffel thing. The two S's looked too much like the logo for Schutzstaffel
It may be one of their best songs, but the costumes were so rudimentary early that I don't think that their costumes and make-up really came into its own until Destroyer came along. In my opinion, that was their best album - next to Sonic Boom and Rock And Roll Over
@jennmeto What exactly do you mean "Manowar songs?" This song was written by Ace Frehley (for KISS) in 1974! This is a KISS song- not a fu@kin' Manowar song!!! 'Am not ripping on Manowar, it's just not "their" song!
"Best thing of the best thing." Is correct. This is the best band in the world! The band is right on track then and it amazes me it is still going strong today! It will be interesting to see where KISS takes us into the future.
I was VERY fortunate to have a BROTHER who loved ME ! and bought me a ticket to their show in VANCOUVER BRITISH COLUMBIA! it was one of their last shows with their make on ! never forget it still one of the BEST live shows EVER !
They were still hungry to make it at this point. They hadnt made their million dollers yet. Thats why the raw energy and power and hunger to be the best, shows in this clip.
Here again Peter is tremendous. When people say Kiss were not good musicians their really talking out their asses. Nobody`s talking technical players but total musical. Time signature changes in the solo and melodic yet kick ass riffage.Awesome!
I love that this is shot in black & white. It just adds to the rawness of the music.

@TCOA7 I agree, they havnt changed their music at all. They are still the same musically. Thats all that matters. also, Gene's money grubbing is just a show he puts on. Hes not really THAT into it, you can tell by how he is with his family that he just tries to act cool and tough. KISS is the same as it's always been, the people who complain now remind me of the people who complained about Beth and I Was Made For Lovin You in the 70s. KISS is one of the few bands left that is for the fans.

nhlosthighway 11 months ago 38
@nhlosthighway I agree. Gene and Paul nowadays talk crap about how both Erics are better drummers, which as far as technical ability they are, but if you had taken most of the songs from the first 3 albums to them, they wouldn't have been able to do them justice. I mean I love Creatures of the Night and Revenge, but nothing tops the first three albums, they were hungry and Ace and Pete were the best musicians for the material.

@loafochangeo You said it yourself:
"Oh, but you did state that they never changed their logo:
"My good sir, sorry to disappoint you, but they never changed their logo to 'KIZZ' "
I clearly see that i wrote "KIZZ" in there, hence, I never stated that they never modified/changed their logo.
If there's no way to type the backwards Z, then don't do it. Just call them KISS!
I really don't think the person would write KIZZ just because of the rules and restrictions in Germany.
BoyleTonight 1 year ago
@loafochangeo Um actually, I did not state that they didn't change their logo. I stated that they didn't change their logo to KIZZ with Z's, but KISS with backwards Z's. Gotta keep your eyes peeled.
I am a hard core KISS fan, I know that. And I know what the German Killers album cover looks like from before.
KISS has never called themselves KIZZ. Google it...
BoyleTonight 1 year ago
@loafochangeo My good sir, sorry to disappoint you, but they never changed their logo to "KIZZ". I wondered who the guy was talking about because he called them KIZZ. That's not their name. They are called KISS. Simple as that.
They did, however, change the S's in their logo to look more like an S and not the lightning shaped S they usually use.
NEVER have they called themselves KIZZ.
But you are correct about the Schutzstaffel thing. The two S's looked too much like the logo for Schutzstaffel

It may be one of their best songs, but the costumes were so rudimentary early that I don't think that their costumes and make-up really came into its own until Destroyer came along. In my opinion, that was their best album - next to Sonic Boom and Rock And Roll Over

@jennmeto What exactly do you mean "Manowar songs?" This song was written by Ace Frehley (for KISS) in 1974! This is a KISS song- not a fu@kin' Manowar song!!! 'Am not ripping on Manowar, it's just not "their" song!

Here again Peter is tremendous. When people say Kiss were not good musicians their really talking out their asses. Nobody`s talking technical players but total musical. Time signature changes in the solo and melodic yet kick ass riffage.Awesome!
