JAKARTA - Gene Simmons, a former KISS personnel also responded pros and cons against Linkin Park's new vocalist, Emily Armstrong. Some rejected Emily for her involvement with Scienceology.

To Forbes, Gene said he had monitored Emily's presence as a front player. He was quite impressed by the vocalist's ability to have a career with the Dead Sara band.

"Keren, saya melihat beberapa video mereka. Vokalis perempuan baru mereka, hebat. Ia cocok di sana. Sebaik untuk mereka. Hidup ini singakt, jadi lakukan dan jalani, urusnya," ujar Gene Simmons dilansir dari NME, 16 September.

Furthermore, Simmons also responded to comments by Linkin Park fans who disagreed. They think that replacing Chester Bennington with a female vocalist is a form of 'violating the rules'.

"What does this rule mean. Genesis, when they lost Peter Gabriel, did it end? No. When Gabriel left, Genesis became a stadium band with the drummer who moved forward," he continued.

"There's no need to ignore all those regulations. After all, who made those rules? Rock and roll don't know the rules," said Gene Simmons.

Slightly similar to Linkin Park, KISS is also experiencing a change of personnel. No one knows what happened to the band or musicians after making a big overhaul.
