KISS has been included in every top 10 countdown of metal bands since the beginning of countdowns, and they also seemed to have phenomenally hot groupies… so technically, wtf why not… but musically, ehhh, i doubt if even Gene would try to argue they were metal… it’s more like hard rock party music or something… Groupie Metal…
KISS wasn’t metal… they just dressed like they were…
Even then, it wasn’t really corpse paint.
They were glamrock at best
exactly, they were the first glamrock band
Poison was glam metal, KISS was close enough to be in shooting distance.
