    Why are they ripping of KISS?
    what are you talking about? Sounds nothing like KISS :confused:
    Both songs are good, kinda leaning towards Now That You're Gone a little more than Sunday Driver.  Tour would be great as long as they play philly which Jack White hates us for some reason. :disappointed:   Here are the videos for them in case anyone is interested

    Couple of strong efforts here.  Really like both songs.  Looking forward to a new album and (hopeful) tour.

    I actually dig these new songs, too. I'm shocked!

    I gave Consolers of the Lonely a try on YouTube. It died for me at "You Don't Understand Me," and "Old Enough" was the final nail in the coffin. The songs after that could be amazing, but two stinkers in a row kind of did it in for me. I'll give it another try, skipping those tracks, but I'm guessing I'll have another unopened Vault for sale.

    The back half of the album is pretty strong. If you like the more rock type of Raconteurs then 5 on the 5, Hold Up, Attention, and Rich Kid Blues might be more your speed.

    I don't know enough Kiss to know if it sounds like a particular song or not, but the riff sounds Kiss-esque to me. also the tone of the guitar sounds similar.

    I thought (jokingly) about the lyrics, haha:

    But the tone/riffs sounds KISS-esque. In a good way.

    You sound like a person who hasn't listened to Unmasked.
