Damn right! I think the 80s stuff is underrated, and particularly "Revenge" from 92 is way underrated. Thats a damn good hard rock/metal record.
The follow up to Revenge (the name escapes me right now) was really good too. They had re-united and were touring in makeup again by the time it came out, so it pretty much got no promo and seemed to be just put out there to clear the books of the Kulick/Singer material, but I dug it.

With a couple of the arrangements I was thinking it's almost like he could feel punk starting to rise, but wasn't willing to get rid of his "theatrics" (for lack of a better word)

^ I thought that was an interesting question, and I found this http://www.coversproject.com/artist/kiss/
Although I know it's not complete because they're on the Ramones Tribute album doing "Do You Remember Rock And Roll Radio" for sure.
I can't believe I had no idea God Gave Rock and Roll to You was a cover until I just saw it on that website.
Edit: Another website that seems pretty cool after 2 minutes of looking on similiar subject matter http://www.secondhandsongs.com/artist/1533#t3

Some friends and I were talking on Saturday that Andy Belfluer might be some kind of supernatural being. He's more than once been the only one around not under Maryann's control. This episode just made me wonder even more.
Holy shit God almighty. I never ever thought of that. Good call! I'll keep that one under my hat in case he turns out to be more.
As far as the "spoiler" goes, I was just made that my room mate had read ahead about certain things and threw it out there knowing people didn't want to know.
But I'd love it if you're on to something about Andy.
I can't take credit for it, a buddy of mine said it, and I reacted pretty much like you just did.

Not to mention that the version of "Suspicious Minds" is probably the best he ever did.
I was a bit interested already, then you went and said that.
So, if you don't mind...
#479 Re: The Sunset Strip » KISS Sonic Boom » 899 weeks ago
Axl are you SEEING THIS?
$11.99 for a new album, remixed hits, and a concert DVD. Foreigner is doing the same.
Do it better next time, jesus.
Yeah, I'd have never picked up just a new Kiss album. I'll probably get this at least after a while with that much at that price point.
#480 Re: The Sunset Strip » And the winner is........... » 899 weeks ago
Agree with Buzz. Oasis is okay, but not near the groundbreaking band they are made out to be. Neither is Radiohead.
As for Unplugged, that Nirvana one is amazing, and chilling in retrospect, it ended up being Kurt's swan song. BUT, in fairness, I think the Alice In Chains one is better, and in a sense, it ended up being Layne's swan song too.
The reason I think the Nirvana one is so good is that they screwed with arrangements, and instrumentation and such.
Alice In Chains had a ton of songs tailor made for the format.
I don't take anything away from the AIC performance, because it's great, but I think the Nirvana one is one of the best because of how they approached it.
I'm also in the boat with a few other people who said the don't really care for Nirvana otherwise.
