KISS (1974) Love Theme from KISS - LOST 70s GEMS
This 2 minute instrumental from Kiss's 1974 debut album features harmonised guitars dancing along in their beautifully duelling wails; ascending in a meticulous series of note pulls while the drums are pounded away in a restrained fashion. The title is a parody of a how 70s movie score were named, its ironic as this album doesn't have many love songs and it is the smoothest track in a heavy set. The bouncy bass note shuffle is great but the slashing power chords with their faux reverb is what I like best while the whole groove is a guilty pleasure. Though there's not much romance, as always there is a strong sensual vibe as the track walks along into a slightly darker passage; ominous Black Sabbath chords and twangy harmonics, it's by far a gem from Kiss's overlooked debut.
