Summary

Kuarantine’s PJ Farley and Charlie Parra along with drummer Joey Cassata return for the KISS Classic Album Clash, and this time it’s Lick It Up vs. Asylum! They break down two of KISS’ most iconic non-makeup records track by track… and no song, solo, drum fill, or album cover is safe! They’re diving into the post-apocalyptic Lick It Up reveal, the neon madness of Asylum, Gene’s “checked-out” 80s narrative (and why it may be dead wrong), and the songs that nearly saved (or sank) the band. Hear how Rick Derringer ended up shredding on “Exciter,” why Eric Carr secretly wrote the riff to “All Hell’s Breakin’ Loose,” how “Who Wants To Be Lonely” became a surprising fan favorite, and why Joey once sprinted through a mall just to see KISS without makeup for the first time. And of course, they each reveal their final vote for which album comes out on top when all is said and done!
