KISS Should Not Reunite Says Anthrax's Scott Ian
. ![]() (Classic Rock) Scott Ian says he doesn't agree with Kiss fans who continue to call for Ace Frehley and Peter Criss to return. The Anthrax guitarist and lifelong Kiss fan says he trusts Kiss mainmen Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons to make the right decisions for the band. Guitarist Frehley was replaced by Tommy Thayer while Eric Singer is in the drum stool formerly occupied by Criss. And though he thinks Frehley could still cut it with Kiss, he is not so sure Criss still has what it takes. Ian tells 99 Rock (via Blabbermouth): "As a fan, I would love to see Ace Frehley play one more time in Kiss. And I'm gonna be completely honest, and this is no knock on Peter, but the last time I saw them with Peter, on the Kiss/Aerosmith run, like 13 years ago, the tempos were terrible. "Everything was just way too slow. So if that's the case, no, I don't wanna see that. I wanna see stuff played at the right tempo. If Peter could play it at the right tempo, then more power to him and I would love to see that. Of course I would. "But it's not my band. It's Gene and Paul's band and those guys know what's right for their band. They've proven it. Stop questioning Gene and Paul." Read more and listen to the full interview here.
