Roadie Ray is out again with a business thing. But the Kousins would have loved to have heard his thoughts on this week’s album… Psycho Circus. It was reviewed by the Kousins in December 2020.

A lot of hard rock music, and especially KISS, featured the “s**k me, f**k me” mindset when it comes to lyrical content. But, when challenged, the Kousins found out their favorite band could actually write love songs. Not songs about hooking up, but songs about love. Yeah, we said it. Jim From Alabama and Nick … Top 10 “Love” Songs
