BTW, all of you guys that never heard KISS or this original,...
Guernica & Bob's cover of "Parasite" is much different than the original.
The original just hits and drives like any KISS song from the early era, with hard rock drums and guitars, all the way, pedal to the metal.
The COVER really lays into a GROOVE, with a modern beat that's totally different than the original. The original buzzsaw guitars and stellar guitar solos are replaced in the COVER by a thick, solid modern compressed rythm guitar, that's very basic in a sense, as compared to the original,... and the original screamin guitar solo is replaced by a very tasteful, screamin sax solo, which,... again,... is quite different from the original solo. That's probably indicative of Bob's not having heard the KISS original, and just working off Guernica's basic groove.
The COVER presented here is much different than the ORIGINAL, but it definitely defines a space of it's own, and I still think this COVER is worthy of actual radio airplay.
Hey, Van Halen broke with a modern cover of a KINKS song, and this type of thing happens often, so it could possibly happen to you. [Guernica/Bob]

Hey guys,
Mkg- Thanks for the Zappa comparison and the nice words. Yea, give some old X a listen, you might just like it
...I know that i do!
W.I.S.C.- Thanks for the kind words.
A Reel Person- ........Yea, this is definitely a remake, not a cover. I take nothing away from the original in all of its glory. .......like I said, I am a fan. Thanks for the listen, and the kind words.
......I want to thank everyone for taking the time to listen to this. Its kinda gettin embarassing shamelessly bumping this with responses all of the time, so im gonna let it retire. Thanks again .......G

I mean what I say, and I'll bump this thread as much as I want,... thank you!
I'm also a fan of "X". What I like best about them is the energy and the unhinged vocal harmonies.
My wife used to scream at me all the time, which is another story, but I once asked her to try to put that much feeling into some Exene-style harmonies on an X COVER. There's something that's powerful and yet droning about X harmonies, that goes beyond description. You just have to hear it.

I have it around somewhere .... for got we'd done that ..... knowing you're a KISS fanatic ...... not sure what you're gonna think of the saxes on it but it doesn't sound all jazzy like you're probably fearing.
