Kissin’ Dynamite - Money, Sex & Power

Posted on Wednesday, October 24, 2012

Germany’s Kissin’ Dynamite started off as a Power/Traditional Metal band, even having the legendary Udo Dirkschneider from Accept/U.D.O. do a guest appearance on their second album. That was all in the past. At some point, these guys somehow took a wrong turn and ended up driving down Poser Lane and checking into the Butt Rock Motel. Money, Sex & Power has more in common with Guns and Roses, Motley Crue and Poison than Accept or Scorpions. This is Sunset Strip sleaze in all of its spandex-covered glory (if you can call it that). If there’s one redeeming quality that Money, Sex & Power has, it’s that it is fucking hilarious. This album was probably intended to be serious, but this shit outdoes Bad News and Spinal Tap in terms of comedy value. There are plenty of laugh out loud moments on this record. Just listening to “Dinosaurs Are Still Alive” and “Sex Is War” made me laugh so hard I practically coughed up blood. And don’t get me started on the press release that accompanied this album. Seriously, you couldn’t create a parody band this funny or stupid. As good as Pants Noizee was at goofing on ’80s Butt Rock, Kissin’ Dynamite somehow managed to do it better. I gave this one way more points than it deserved because I needed a good laugh and they gave it to me.
