Potentially, it could be hurting you. It doesn't happen often, But these trypes of things CAN lead to banning or deleted topics. Believe me, I wasn't trying to fight with you.

Aerosmith totally

Aerosmith...

In terms of song craftmanship, lyrics, sex-appeal, etc... it goes to Aerosmith

however, you have to give it to kiss, they were marketing geniuses and made money on really basic rock and roll, with generic song structures, and a lot of makeup.

Dan-

I understand... if Richard wants to move it, he will..

Forum members love these type of polls, and the large number of replies in a very short period of time proves this.

If posting this question gets me banned, then I don't need to be here anyway :)

Cheers!

Aerosmith by far

KISS are now a joke and Aerosmith are a pop band now. Aerosmith died in 2001 after that Super Bowl gig with B*tchney Sneers, N' Stink, Mary J Crackhead Blige and Smelly Nelly!

Aerosmith, Quite simply the best American Band that lasted past 10 years
Kiss was about the $$$, They advertise more then a Hooker on 5th street.
MY GOD spell it write.

I don't LOVE Aerosmith, but I like a few of their songs. And still I have some respect for this group.
BUT I DEEPLY, DEEPLY HATE KISS
I hate their concept - "ok guys, lets put some make up on and silver boots and cosmos costumes, and show our tongues and spit blood and fire and pretend we're still hot.
Oh yeah, and let's release an album called "Lick it up" "
Um, yeah, that sure helps building yourself a credibility.
Not only that, but as someone said it before, all KISS songs sound the same, and I personally think they're way overrated. They're not as original as people say... Lyrically, "I was made for loving you" could have had been written by my seven year old cousin (whose first language is French BTW!). And musically, Kiss songs are still hopelessly ordinary.

And finally - KISS means Kings In Service of Satan. "OK dude, let's have this name for our band, so hopefully we can scare a few..." How pathetic. It only makes me laugh. And damage the little of credibility they're trying to build themselves.
yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be...

Aerosmith... No any particular reason why, I just have heard more of their songs!

Aerosmith is definitely WAY BETTER!!

Keep in mind that Aerosmith did something that no other band has ever done. They reached superstardom and were a very successful band, but later on differences lead them to a partial break-up, and the band hit the bottom to a point where they couldn't even sell out a fuckin' night club. Eventually the band came back together and became even bigger than they were ever before.

Although I like some KISS songs they're still way too overcommercialized.

Now Aerosmith are a joke. Especially after they did that power ballad I Don't Want to Miss a Thing. Then, the 2001 Super Bowl appearance with N' Sync and Britney forever tarnished my image of them. I know Brian and Roger did a UK Pepsi commercial with Britney, Beyonce and Pink but John(bless him that he retired) was nowhere to be found as he has retired to family life.
