It has been nine years since we've seen a new KISS album. Any plans to get back into the studio?
The record industry is in such a mess. I called for what it was when college kids first started download music for free -- that they were crooks. I told every record label I spoke with that they just lit the fuse to their own bomb that was going to explode from under them and put them on the street.
There is nothing in me that wants to go in there and do new music. How are you going to deliver it? How are you going to get paid for it if people can just get it for free? I will be putting out a Gene Simmons box set called "Monster" -- a collection of 150 unreleased songs. KISS will have another box set of unreleased music in the next year.
The record industry doesn't have a f*cking clue how to make money. It's only their fault for letting foxes get into the henhouse and then wondering why there's no eggs or chickens. Every little college kid, every freshly-scrubbed little kid's face should have been sued off the face of the earth. They should have taken their houses and cars and nipped it right there in the beginning. Those kids are putting 100,000 to a million people out of work. How can you pick on them? They've got freckles. That's a crook. He may as well be wearing a bandit's mask.
Doesn't affect me. But imagine being a new band with dreams of getting on stage and putting out your own record. Forget it.

Because they want to be able to steal music.
Duh....
For some reason the younger generation seems to think theft is ok.....disturbingly it seems as if that thought process is growing stronger with each passing year.

I guess it depends on your definition of theft. If I ask to borrow a friend's CD to listen to it am I stealing it? Its considered theft because some asshats with a lot of money and political clout decided it was.

Because the older generation wasn't taping and distributing movies, TV programs, and music before? The only reason why people are making a fuss now is because of the ease of distribution.
