GENE SIMMONS SAYS “YOUNG FANS” BEAR RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEATH OF ROCK: “YOU KILLED THE THING THAT YOU LOVE”

Gene Simmons of Kiss has added to his numerous comments on what he perceives to be the death of rock music, having now placed blame on “young fans” for killing the genre.

Speaking to the Q104.3 radio station, Simmons was asked to elaborate on his original “rock is dead” comments, which he initially made in 2014 to his son Nick for Esquire, and then doubled down on last month. Q104.3 host Jonathan Clarke asked if Simmons meant rock was dead in terms of radio play or streaming, to which he replied: “In all ways.”
