    You just had to be there in the 70's to understand the craze that was known as KISS.
    Everybody in our school talked about them; played their music on portable cassette players in the hallways etc etc

      Me to but deep down I knew it was going to be the beginning of the end for a great band. After this IMO they became just another glam hair metal band. I will always remember the 70's as them being at their best. The music had an "edge" to it back then which was lost when the 80's came around.

      I’m 56 but compared to these giants of rock and roll we’re still young pups. 😄 I can’t believe it’s now been 50 years. I bought my first KISS album when I was eight years old and from the opening riff of Nothin’ To Lose it was love at first listen. The influence these guys have had on the industry cannot be overstated.

      right? When the standard wasn't "build something successful then bleed it dry ". TLC ( or Discovery? i forget ). was once a .gov funded education channel. The history channel used to LOVE history. MTV was about rock.. and pop and alternative.. then even rap .. Music... it seems the Finance MBA sociopaths eventually get hold of everything and reduce it to sleazy profit at all cost operations

    As a little kid I wanted to see their faces. Huge fan. To this day it is one of my favorite KISS moments. Ditch the makeup and prove people like your music and not just the makeup. The mystique was gone on the Reunion Tour. It wasn’t the same as having no idea what they looked like without makeup.

  • @denal0u

  • @leokimvideo
    @leokimvideo Год назад +247

    It was a radical move by Kiss, and what we didn't understand at the time this was the second great era for Kiss. Once that makeup was removed the song writing on the no makeup albums was amazing. It's also the peak vocal period for Paul Stanley. Kiss's live shows in the mid to late 80's had the band performing with a new up tempo sound. Add to that the changing lead guitar until Bruce Kulick stabilized the position. Maybe Gene struggled the most without makeup, he sometimes looked lost stripped of his wings not playing the demon

    • @88kwthomas
      @88kwthomas Год назад +26

      The only reason the KISS name lasted was because they were paid a shitload upfront by polygram/mercury so it was either churn out album after album or be sued by the record company. Lucky for us some of the co-written material turned out awesome and the other 95% you can skip through

    • @Kiss.mwah71
      @Kiss.mwah71 Год назад +32

      Gene really did struggle with no makeup. Because Starchild was just Paul with makeup, Eric and Vinnie barely wore the makeup, but Gene Simmons and The Demon were two separate people. For almost all of the 80's Gene struggled to be the bad boy evil guy without makeup.

    • @johnschindler7883
      @johnschindler7883 Год назад +16

      Yeah, you could see it with Gene in the Lick it Up video. He looked a little out of place, but as time went by he eventually felt more comfortable, especially in Heaven's on Fire.

      And (some of) their vj's!!! Back in the day music was decided by dj's.. and vj's.. introducing us to new music and seeing what we loved .As opposed to now when what we are exposed to is literally decided by MBA's in corporate offices and the mba's they outsource their programming to for $$$

  • @gecko-sb1kp
    @gecko-sb1kp 11 месяцев назад +15

    Eric sounded like an Aussie there when he said 'Magic, mate' after the 'Lick It Up' snippet we never got to seen. The truth is, I was a hardcore kiss fan at the age of 11 in Australia. Dynasty being my first cassette. But I knew what the guys looked like long before they went unmasked in '83. I used to buy tabloid magazines with photos of them proclaiming 'Kiss Unmasked'. And it was all true. My all-time favorite was one of Paul Stanley staring at the camera like a deer caught in headlights...
    The funny thing is, even after being at their very first Australian concert in 1980, I never really followed them forward after the Unmasked album. Instead buying their earlier albums back to their genesis and loving it. But being my first, Dynasty is my favorite. It was like a drug to me and still is...

    G'day! I was 11 years old in 1980 and obsessed with Kiss. Moved to Malaysia that year and was totally cut off due to the cultural reasons and censorship, but still played my cassettes and did the air guitar.
    Moved back to Australia aged 14, and saw non makeup interviews and it blew my mind. I was so shocked as it was just not ever a thing before we moved for a few years.
    It was like one of the biggest mysteries of the world had just been revealed to me.

  • @darania1
    @darania1 10 месяцев назад +6

    Im not American but I had a 15 yr old friend who worshipped KISS & proudly owned all their albums. KISS were still big stars back in 83 so I imagine this public unmasking was a national KISS PR event back then...

    I first saw Kiss live after unmasking. Then again when they remasked! They stayed relevant in the era of "reunion tours" because they gave 110% on stage and earned every penny. The last live show I attended was with the original lineup back together masked. It was almost unbelievable to be there and it completely rocked. Before the internet, most people didn't know about internal conflict among the members. We just enjoyed the show, leaving happy, drunk, and deaf for a day or two.

  • @Phil-pq4ks
    @Phil-pq4ks Год назад +23

    The funny thing is that word is Simmons and Stanley were irritated because it didn't have the shock value they were looking for. Reason was without Ace & Peter at the unveiling Carr and Vincent just didn't matter. 😂

      @roamlikekane Год назад +9

      With that said, they were lucky that "Lick It Up" was actually a good song. They were able to ride the wave of the hit song coupled with taking the make-up off in tandem to keep them from completely going under. Then in 96' that's when the were re-ignited with the reunion! I saw them on that tour for the first time, it was electric!

      THAT was awesome.
      Even though I had NO idea Ace had left the band.😮
      I saw Vinnie and went," who the F*** is THAT" to the guy next to me.🤭🤷‍♂️
      He never really fit IN the band.
      Good writer and player.
      Weird guy.
      I did see the reunion in '96.

    I was just 10 years old in 1983., I only knew of kiss, because my aunt who used to live upstairs in my grandmothers apartment when she got married and moved away I kind of took over her room, and she had a dresser and inside that dresser had a round sticker with kiss on it and I remember saying wow as a young kid it just looks so cool but I have to say I was never much of a kids fan and I do like a lot of 70s and 80s music but their music wasn’t something that I would listen to but I did record that last concert in Madison Square Garden a few nights ago just so I could have it, and I did listen to a few songs that I actually liked. It’s an end of an era. At least they are still alive and kicking so many people from that time or not even around anymore.

    People don't seem to be very fond of this era in KISStory (I see fans trash it often in comments), but I truly enjoy it. Obviously Eric Carr is awesome, and I really dig Vinnie Vincent's style. The 80s was definitely a departure from their 70s stuff, but it works for the era.

    My older sister loves KISS. My parents took her to a concert in the 70s when she was around 12 yrs old. If you knew my parents you’d recognize that was a major cultural/parental sacrifice on their part. They were more the George & Tammy - Tanya Tucker - Statler Brothers type. Apparently the concert was extremely loud. They still talk about how my dad went to the concessions to try to buy himself some earplugs.

      Vinnie was great on creatures but like ace he was going to be toxic to the band with his demands. Look at him now he is a complete mess. Eric on the other hand IMO was a far better drummer than Criss.

      A real pain in the ass to Gene and Paul.

    There were several groups that either had make up on or put random art work on the album cover (Steely Dan being one). Never knew what they really looked like until MTV started showing music videos.

    3 months later as a senior in high school, I went to see them in concert. My first concert, at the Coliseum in Jacksonville, Florida.
    Then I saw them again in 2005. After they had put their makeup back on.
    At the exact same venue, the Coliseum in Jacksonville.😊

    People have to remember there was no social media or computers or cell phones back then so it wasn’t like there was a tons of leaked videos of KISS without their make up this was truly an unmasking at the time.

    I think they realized that different characters in different makeup just wasn't working and they wanted to rebrand.
