2 of the few bands that survived in the 70s 80s and 90s with pretty substantial popularity in all 3 decades. (Yes I know AC/DC is still going and their new album is pretty good, when was the last album Kiss made? I'm not sure)
AC/DC. At least music is what they do. KISS is a show, kabuki theater, costumes, make-up, a spectacle... the last thing they can hang their hat on is their music.
I love AC/DC, and i find their music alot better than KISS. Personally i dont even think it's a hard comparison. dont get me wrong i think KISS was good, but overated
kiss, has a live album come out last year Kiss Alive 35. and they were also on Jigoku-Retsuden in 2008
