1. Kiss Kiss was an indie rock band that emerged from Milton's SUNY Purchase. The group was formed by Joshua Benash (guitar, synth, and vocals) and Jared Karns (drums) after the members had participated in various college bands. The name Kiss Kiss is derived from a series of short stories by Roald Dahl. Although their music is primarily rock in style, it also includes an electric violin that adds an orchestral sound to many songs. The contrasts within Kiss Kiss' songwriting and vocals have also been described as extremely frantic at times, yet melodic and soothing at others. This unusual variety of styles has helped the band's music to appeal to a wide audience.
The band's first release was a self-titled EP--initially released independently in 2004, it would be re-released on Eyeball Records with new artwork on October 11th, 2005. Their debut album, Reality vs. the Optimist, was officially released on February 6, 2007.
The band's second album, The Meek Shall Inherit What's Left, was released on July 7th, 2009.
2. On March 25, 2023, at the conclusion of WACK Audition Camp 2023 the formation of Kiss Kiss was announced. The group consists of six members of Gang Parade. Their first digital single, "Kisses", was released on April 17. On June 21, they released their debut album, First Album.
Killing the Son
Kiss Kiss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To Organize the Peace
When Everyone Raised their Arms
To Kill The Son
It was Hard
To be Transparent like Trees
With Feet and Hands Bound to Limbs The Worst of Sin To Be
The lyrics to Kiss Kiss's song "Killing the Son" depict the difficulty in achieving peace when there is a pervasive culture of violence and unrest. The lines "It was hard to organize the peace when everyone raised their arms to kill the son" suggests that the quest for peace is hindered by those who are actively seeking to cause harm, perhaps due to a cycle of revenge and retaliation.
The next lines, "It was hard to be transparent like trees with feet and hands bound to limbs" indicates the feeling of being trapped or constrained, unable to express oneself fully. The "worst of sin" mentioned in the final line of the verse refers to the inability to escape this cycle of violence, and the way that it can consume a society.
Overall, the lyrics seem to be a commentary on the difficulty of breaking free from entrenched patterns of violence and seeking a path towards peace. It highlights the need for transparency and honesty, even when it may be difficult, and the importance of working towards reconciliation rather than perpetuating cycles of harm.
