Title: Kiss solo that sounds like WTTJ
Post by: Lineker10 on March 12, 2005, 04:09:05 PM
Has anyone else noticed that the guitar at the very end of the Kiss song "Exciter" off the Lick It Up album sounds exactly like a speeded up version of the WTTJ riff.

No.. But have YOU ever noticed that "Coma" sounds like "War Machine" by Kiss? Well, from what I can remember of "War Machine" anyway..

Shouldn't it be the other way around, WTTJ sounds like Exciter, since the KISS album was released first?   ::)

Yeh - your right - the opening riffs do sound alike.

at the same time "war machine" sounds familiar to STP's sex type thing riff which sounds alot like a danzig riff .. I forget the song name but the word "snake" is in the title.

War Machine was on the Kiss Album "Revenge" which came out in 1991, which predates STP's "Core" album that Sex Type Thing is on if I am correct.  I'm sure you can find similarities in certain sections to a lot of songs.  Both Steven and Duff were Kiss fans, so I wouldn't be suprised if there wasn't some type of influence from Kiss in a GN'R song.

"War Machine" is on "Creatures of the Night" (1982). Also:

-The riff in "Paradise City" sounds like Black Sabbath's "Zero the Hero."
-The end riff in Motley Crue's "Droppin like flies" sounds like GN'R's "Locomotive."

I stand corrected, for some reason I confused war machine with unholy, both heavy songs sang by Gene Simmons.
