Their magnificent "Money, Sex & Power" (2012) was a real revelation for me, this album was really convincing (ranking n°9 at the final top), but I think that this fourth delivery is even stronger. They've kept their hypersonic signature sound but they updated it and improved with Modern elements and a few industrial tricks. Each song contains its little experimentations but the core of the music is still Melodic Metal with obvious references to the 80's trends and their dinosaurs. Weirdly, it's quite difficult to define with words, as their specific mix is finally quite genuine, untamed, and original.
The choruses are rich with many infectious hooks in the American tradition ("Ticket to Paradise") and are conceived with a constant array of Germanic anthemic parts ("Deadly") and a furious dose of Sleazy colors to Scandinaviaze the whole!

The obvious thing is that KISSIN' DYNAMITE holds a savage spirit even in their most glamorous stuff ("Firefly" or "The Final Dance"), sounding more dangerous than the Sleazy cohorts and even more mean than most of the new wave of Thrash Metal bands. They also have a true Rock'n'Roll edge plus an undeniable nasty and cranky attitude ("DNA").

The young vocalist Hannes Braun, despite looking like a dead ringer for King Joffrey Baratheon (with more hair of course), is obviously the main asset for KISSIN' DYNAMITE. He displays an amazing range and a real density in the interpretation, an incarnating different vocal style ("Legion of the Legendary") with an incredible ease and a juvenile dexterity, from a particulary gifted dynamic diction, a perfect flow under a declaming mode to high pitched screams ("VIP in Hell" ), and to grumpy instant and subtle growls. And then switching to insane crooning ("Maniac Ball") and most of all a truly impressive confidence, the complete package set to succeed in a really eccentric method ("God in You")! Wonderful!

The musicians seems to reach a new level in excellency, notably the bass/drums couple who works amazingly, lead guitar spots were also much uplifted, with some short but well written, well calibrated little piece of soloing!

KISSIN DYNAMITE has earned a European recognition with the release of "Money, Sex & Power", and with the upcoming "Megalomania", everything is set to uplift them to the highest rank of the worldwide stages...Only the sky is limit!<
