Kissin’ Dynamite: Raging Rock and Roll Explosion
Interview by Ken Morton Photo Credit: Holger Fichtner & Patrick Schneiderwind Kissin’ Dynamite is back and ready to bring the party rock and roll to music fans all across the world. Their brand new album is entitled Not The End Of The Road, available via Napalm Records, and jam-pakced with raging stadium rock style anthems. Highwire Daze recently interviewed guitarist Jim Müller to find out more about their amazing Not The End Of The Road magnum opus, working with the legendary Udo Dirkschneider on a previous album entitled Addicted To Metal, their thoughts about playing here in the States, and whether or not they agree with the KISS proclamation that “Rock Is Dead.” Read on... So let’s talk about the new album, Not the End of the Road. What is the idea for the title of that album? Yeah. It was just like the perfect putting it all in a nutshell for the whole feeling of the album. It’s all about empower34
ing people to not give up, to spread love, especially in these dark times where you really need to be psychologically stable. Just not to give up. And that’s what it’s all about, because this is definitely not the end of the road and there’s a lot of bigger problems we have. The pandemic is fucked up definitely and it is shitty, but it’s definitely not the end of the road and not the end of the world - yet. Well, for me personally, it’s also a good title to piss off KISS because you know, they say “Rock Is Dead” all the time and shit like that. But you know, I would say the same if the last good song I wrote was in 1985. That’s a good one. Right? (Laughs) That is a good one. And that’ll be all over Blabbermouth too. I hope so. I hope so. (Laughter) So, you’ve done some label jumping from AFM to Metal Blade, and now the Napalm. How did you wind up deJanuary/February 2022
