Kiss is more than just a band but a brand and a business empire. Most of that success it’s thank to the seemingly greedy attitude of Gene Simmons towards everything he’s involved in and, in fact, who can blame him? When you know you can squeeze every penny from those who’ve been following Kiss’ career for decades, it would be foolish to not make that move. Gene Simmons is the perfect man to show that same mentality and that alone has made his worth go to $300 million! Have you seen his house? you can put your entire block in it and he would still have room for all his Kiss’ memorabilia. You can’t do that without earning those numbers.

Black Metal enthusiast from Los Angeles who thought was a good idea to grab a camera and shoot underground shows for the hell of it. Pseudo-writer with little to no expectations of ever winning a Pulitzer but totally down to write about your unknown band if it's good to my ears. I enjoy long walks on the beach, deep conversation, holding hands and attending Satanic music shows every now and then.
