hello Paul, great job with the new kiss album, much better than the production for psycho circus. The song writing didn't feel as controlled, it sounded like there was more freedom to incorporate some of the older, more classic rock 'n roll styles that you and Gene used in the mid to early 70's, which i always thought was a good part of your sound. Kiss wouldn't be the same without songs like "nothin' to lose" and even "let me know (sunday driver." Those rhythm styles may seem dated to many out there, but look at the many bands that have come out in the last 10 years that incorporate that classic sound in a retro way. That's what made kiss fun back then, the differences in your albums like say, "dressed to kill, "destroyer" and then "rock and roll over," new sounds and rock styles being experimented with, but still returning to the "rock and roll" style also. Heavy Metal can become boring, but rock (rock and roll" doesn't. Gene's singing sounded less gravely.. his singing sounded closer to the voice he used on your first and second album, which I found interesting. I have a lot more to say, but simply stated; great job Paul for a great Kiss album. Jim
