Co-founder, bassist and co-lead singer of the rock band Kiss, known for his stage persona "The Demon" and long career in rock music.

Born Chaim Witz in Haifa, Israel (later known as Gene Simmons). Co-founded Kiss in the early 1970s and has released solo recordings, compilations and media projects. Publicly documented birth name and Israeli birthplace.

DeBaser's review of Gene Simmons' solo album ***hole describes it as inconsistent and more commercial than artistic. The reviewer criticizes its pop-kitsch production and highlights guest appearances (Kulick, Dave Navarro) and a Prodigy cover. The review is written by a self-identified die-hard Kiss fan who nonetheless finds the record disappointing.

For:Kiss fans, classic rock listeners, readers interested in solo releases from legacy artists

 the demon with the long tongue and full of fake blood is back among us, and he tries to keep up with the times by choosing to create an album (that seems more like a session than an album) that pretends to be Hard Rock but in the end is a pop mix with a very kitsch backdrop and guitars smeared with distortions just out of the shop.
