1. Kiss Kiss, an inactive American indie rock / art rock band
2. KiSS KiSS, a Japanese girl group formed by WACK, spun-off from GANG PARADE
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.
Shits in Suits
Kiss Kiss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A Body in The Rain
A Rotting Corpse Found in the Gallows
I Want To Take you Home
I Want to Play Dress Up
I Want to Show you Off!
I Tried Some Puppeting I Used some Rope and String
Nothing Could Make you Dance Like
How You Used To
I Admit I Flipped out
I Tossed your Bones About
How your Soul Came Down
You Taught me, You Told me Secrets
How we're Fed Chemicals
By Diabolicals
Tiny Little Shits in Suits
Who Do not Give a Fuck
And When Our Bodies Fail
Guess Who Will have Pills to Sell
Those Tiny Little Shits in Suits
Who Do Not Give a Fuck
The lyrics to "Shits in Suits" by Kiss Kiss offers an interesting insight into the corrupt world we live in. The opening lines, "My Mother Said you Were a Body in The Rain, A Rotting Corpse Found in the Gallows," tell the story of a dead man who is still present among the living. This is a metaphor for how the things we create always outlive us, for better or worse. The singer of the song states, "I Want To Take you Home, I Want to Play Dress Up, I Want to Show you Off!" which is symbolic of the way we try to manipulate and control our creations, whether that be through art or technology.
The next verse of the song speaks to the frustration the singer feels when trying to manipulate their creation. "I Tried Some Puppeting, I Used some Rope and String, Nothing Could Make you Dance Like How You Used To" represents the way we try to control the art we create but fail to capture the initial magic that made it great. The lines "How we're Fed Chemicals, By Diabolicals, Tiny Little Shits in Suits Who Do not Give a Fuck" suggests that the creativity and unique expression of our art is being stifled and limited by those in positions of power who only care about their own gain. Finally, the line "And When Our Bodies Fail, Guess Who Will have Pills to Sell, Those Tiny Little Shits in Suits Who Do Not Give a Fuck" shows that the suits in charge only care about what they can gain, even if it means exploiting the health and suffering of others.
