Kiss - Sword and Stone (RE-RECORDED 2021)

[@Gerbear70]

it weas a great song. i do not understand why this song was NOT on Crazy nights. it's awesome!

[@HernanRios]

@@Gerbear70 Nobody understands!

[@Jay-ef2ii]

Comment: Sword and stone should have been on the Crazy Nights album (back in the day). April 14, 2024. USA

[@pjbrown4736]

Yes it fucking should have. Baffled it never got that chance.

[@starchild007]

I just don’t understand KISS never released it in the 80’s. One of the best songs of KISS.

[@erenn6476]

Probably the best KISS song that has never been released by them as a band (imo)

[@azwris]

Paul Dean sang it very well though!

[@joe666b]

It has been released on the Soundtrack to „Shocker“

[@erenn6476]

@@joe666b guess I need to edit my post. I meant (and I'm guessing you may have understood what I meant) that KISS themselves did not officially release it

[@Stanley-x4w]

This song would have been the best one on crazy kights

[@V3ntilator]

To the people who say the vocal is dull. This is the demo version, not final.

[@Octalux]

Beyond excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@josephskuse9115]

Please don’t ever delete this!! I count this as new KISS music 2021 after 2012’s Monster!! It’s just sooo good!

[@jcsousa1437]

the music track is top notch! great job. Paul are limited but we get a glimpse of how spectacular this tune would have been for KISS!

[@HernanRios]

Thank you! That's the idea of the project! Check the other songs!

[@Mika-qt6wq]

This version is tuned down half a step. It sounds better than the original standard tuning version in my opinion!

[@HernanRios]

Yes, I had to do it to match the rest of the covers I have done. From Creatures of the night and during the 80s they started using the standard 440, unlike the 70s. Thanks for watching!

[@CeeDoggz]

100% So good More feeling in it More balls 👍

[@daywalker6785]

One of the Best KISS Songs I have heard \m/ Could have been on Creatures Of The Night

[@HernanRios]

@edwin paasse Actually the writers are Desmond Child, Stanley and Kulick so it could have never been on Creatures.

[@HernanRios]

​@edwin paasse Creatures would have fitted greatly, but I think this catchy hard rock chorus is closer to the Crazy Night era! Cheers!

[@addickkelders2265]

If this song was on Crazy Nights instead of My Way, then it wouldn’t be the worst album in Kisstory.

​@jake6887 Hi! I thought you meant that this was a Bon Fire song! Yes my friend, I have known this version from Bon Fire since I was a kid, it's really great! Back in the day, we did not have a lot of information and didn't know it was not actually a song that belonged them. As a KISS fan it was a great surprise to discover the Kiss demo and realizing it was actually a KISS son that did not make it for Crazy Nights!! One of my favorite KISS songs!

[@GonadTheBarbarian666]

Suggestion for possibly improving the vocals: train RVC or another AI on Paul's voice and then use the original demo vocal as an input guide.

[@HernanRios]

@@GonadTheBarbarian666 I have not found Paul's voice! But that's definitely the best choice!

[@ColtraneTaylor]

Can you officially release this album you have recorded?

[@HernanRios]

You mean legally or if I have the intention to do it? Legally speaking it can be done and of course you can't monetize it. My intention is to release it with videos on KZbin, tomorrow I'll be uploading Creatures of the Night!

[@ColtraneTaylor]

​@@HernanRios I meant both. Like an official release. I mean, it's great even if it's KZbin and unofficial being able to use Paul's voice and your playing. I just wish fans could do official versions.

[@jefizz66]

Sounds great but I think the vocals could be a little louder.

[@HernanRios]

Sure! But don't forget it has been extracted from a demo of the 80s. When you apply a tool to extract the voice it will always in a way destroy it, and when you work with low quality tracks like a demo from 30 years ago it gets harder to keep a good quality. Anyway, the intention of this is to "emulate" the song with the original voice. Thank for your comments!

[@jefizz66]

@@HernanRios I never thought about the age of the track & how the quality could be affected by the mix. Thank you for pointing this out. It’s a great track.

Written by Paul Dean

[@HernanRios]

Hi my friend! I'm afraid that's not accurate, this song was written by Desmond Child, Paul Stanley, Bruce Kulick. It was supposed to be in Crazy Nights but the song has never been released, it was then recorded by Paul Dean and the german band Bonfire a couple of years later.
