“If you like KISS you will enjoy 1977.”

— Nicky Baldrian, FIREWORKS The Melodic Rock Magazine

“Unlike most tribute bands, which perform and sometimes record the hits of the band it's honoring, 1977 has written and recorded 10 original tracks in the style of KISS. To hear 1977 is akin to uncovering lost masters of unreleased KISS material.”

— Paul Grimshaw, Weekly Surge

“...the folks at A. Coin Management and 1977 have grabbed hold of exactly what made KISS great...”

— James Sibley, CD BABY Customer Review

“The energy, the spirit, the riffs, the beats, the voices… It’s all right here. 1977 has captured the raw essence of what KISS’ music was all about. Highly recommended for everyone who fancies themselves as a Klassic KISS Fan! YOU WANTED THE BEST…”

— Todd Johnson, CD BABY Customer Review

“Fans of 1977 show their support with 100,000 total plays at MySpace.”

— A. Coin Management, LLC, MySpace Pop Out Player

“After playing the disc for a second time I found myself inevitably singing along with the choruses like I had known these lines for years.”

— Metal Mark, Heavy Metal Time Machine

“It’s funny, Paul & Gene have stated the upcoming KISS album is going feature a “70s KISS sound”, but 1977 already beat’em to it!”

— Justin Walden, Metal Excess

“The band plays in the same way the original band did: the guitarist has Ace Frehley’s tone down better then Tommy Thayer and the bassist has that thumpy simple bass groove that Gene seemed to use on every song.”

— Steve Angulo, Heavy Metal Addiction

“Shadowed By 1977?: KISS Making First Album Since 1998”

— Tami Ashley, COAST Magazine

“Personally, I think Gene & Paul have gotten wind of the new 1977 CD and suddenly decided they need some new "vintage" material.”

— Tami Ashley, COAST Magazine

“It’s like listening to a KISS record, except it's every KISS song you've never heard. This is a new take on a tribute band. Instead of covering KISS tunes, they wrote new songs in the style of KISS.”

— Michael Wood, Weekly Surge

“The KISS album that never was... but could have been.”

— Edwin Baeyens, Rock Advice

“The Masterful Homage to KISS”

— Brian Howle, Alternatives News Magazine
