Klassik ‘78 is a sonic trip back to your bedroom circa 1978, with your Kiss records on the turntable cranked up, distorting the cheap speakers ever so slightly in order to shake the walls while your parental units were away.
Episode Description
Steve and Sonny are back with another interview with Klassik ‘78. Steve interviewed K78 mastermind Tom in episode 2; listen to it here. This time around the guys interview Joe, aka the voice of Paul Stanley.
Joe talks about recording the new EP “Side Two” and they go track-by-track through the new tunes. He also discusses how he ended up with K78, along with his role in the band. They also have a little fun talking about Joe’s favorite Kiss albums in a lightning round.
If you are not familiar with Klassik ‘78, the best way to describe them is a band that records completely original music that sounds Exactly like ‘74 – ‘78 era Kiss. Make no mistake about it, this shit is good, from the classic sound of the recording to the way the songs are written and come across to the listener.
To a Kiss Army soldier, this is a musical wet dream.
If you are a Kiss freak and have followed the band over the years, then you are completely aware that time keeps moving and the band’s sound has moved right along with it. But hearing Klassik ‘78 makes it OK to be a kid again and remember why you became a Kiss fan in the first place.
Not only does K78 produce that classic sound from an era long gone by a band loved by so many, but the original songs they are writing and recording are freakin great. Don’t get me wrong, you are not going to see Klassik ‘78 songs at the top of today’s charts, but you weren’t going to see Kiss there back in ‘78 either and their music kicked ass.
