Evan Stanley opens up on KISS

When asked on the X5 podcast about what he thinks of KISS’s music, he replied:

“It’s funny, because I grew up really close to KISS, but not really listening to their music much; to me, it was just my dad’s band, his job.” When I was about 17 years old, I thought, ‘I’m going to try, I’m going to listen to them like a fan or anybody would. ‘So I put KISS Alive! because everyone’s talking about that album. I’ll never be able to listen to them like a true fan would, but I tried and thought, ‘Wow, this is really amazing.’ ‘I started listening to some of the early records and dived myself into discography. All the theatrics aside, which is mind blowing, they are just great songs. If you close your eyes and go to a KISS show, you realize they are exceptional musicians playing incredible songs. I think a lot of times people say, ‘Oh, it’s just a show, it’s not a real band’, but put yourself in your place and do that, good luck. They have amazing, timeless songs. They are great musicians and seeing them live is a mind blowing experience; every show blows your mind. You can’t beat that, they have it all. ”

Following the culmination of The End of the Road Tour in December, KISS began the year with the sale of its name and likeness and plans to live eternally in the digital world. Details are scarce. However, the band has stated that the virtual performance should launch in Las Vegas in 2027. In a conversation with Billboard’s Behind the Setlist podcast, frontman Paul Stanley won’t say exactly how the group will carry its legacy into the future. But in typical KISS fashion, Stanley has ambitious goals.
