IF fan support is there? Who says that about a release? Only Vinnie.

Peter Criss just released his full album, vinyl, cd and digital download for those that purchased the album, but no, Vinnie needs fan support, ie, your money, before anything even might be released.

$25 shipping in the US, crazy. $100 shipping overseas, for a single CD, INSANE!!!!!!

Just put this out Vinnie, talk to Peter, ask him to tell you the secrets of being able to release things in this day and age, and only charge a good shipping price please.

An Australian guy replied to the Facebook post, it would cost us Australian's over $8000 to have the whole album as it's almost $500 per song. That's a hard no from Australia.

He is burning blank cd of a truly horrible song thats available online for free . Also cd probably skip and no replacement offered..
If its been partially re recorded from the demos in early 90s which I doubt it has, but if it has it will be worse than the one online. He may have ai enhanced it.. something anyone can do now at home now.
But the song is pure slop . Pure mess. No one can say that ride the serpent is a good song .. its absolutely amateur high school shit at best .

Vinnie calling his music art for art collectors is insanity . The only art in ride the serpent is that its so awful that it will make people chuckle a bit.

I would charge 400 dollars to hear it again and even then I wouldn't be excited.

Also Robert never went into the studio after the demos so the vocals are going to be demo vocals for 200 dollars plus shipping . Lol. Ride the serpent is a tune that 100 percent should have been cut from the guitars from.hell album if it had come out.

Good Lord. This comment:
Steve Thomas Arbogast
Vinnie, I love your music. I fear though, that this price will deter people from truly enjoying your beautiful art in this horrendous economy, especially if it will be this way for each single. I was hoping your new music would be released as a whole, for a fair industry standard retail price of 18.99 (or so). While I don't assume to know your personal life and your needs that these prices would alleviate any burdens life may have thrown you, it's a bit much for us devoted fans who are struggling to justify our electric bills and other utilities needed to feel "normal" and still have a monetary amount of cash to barely save after we put gas in the car once the bills are paid. I've rooted for you for decades, even when you had melted away from society to enjoy your private life, i waited for a hopeful return, and will still be your fan. I really wanted to buy a whole cd for a fair price though. I cannot now.
Much respect, and Merry Christmas.
Seems reasonable and respectful to me... But here's Vinnie's reply:
Vinnie Vincent Invasion
First of all, consider the analogy to caviar or fine art. Not everyone can afford it. Second, I resent your "personal lifes needs... "prices alleviate my burdens" insult. Who the fuck are you to assume such a theory because you can't afford or don't to pay or don't agree with my price... Oh but you expect fair market price of 18.99...😂. Fair market price? Lol. That was yesteryear. Welcome to the new agenda. Artists can and will set their own standards and rules for the purchase price of their art, that's if their are any or many artists of value left aside from the standard list. We are nearing 2030. Inflation thru the roof. Homeless..etc..the horror list is endless. It's a Mad Max wasteland, the wild West for artists now who have No protection from shoplifter fans who download their music for free. They are victims of Massive ripoffs reduced to beg and pander for likes and subscribes from self entitled brats who want their work for free or for next to nothing. Unsigned artists are deer in the woods who never see a dime for the work. Signed artists are ripped off, cheated of the royalties and usually end up in court. Labels own the artists and their works. I've been there. Not interested. If artists had any fucking balls they would unite and shut down all free goods giveaway and stop the suckup pandering to fans and bring it all back to where it began. No free access. No free downloads and start getting paid again for their work. Artists are unprotected. The internet killed the fire and desire and the creativity and the artist itself. No artist wants to give their music away for free to ungrateful self entitled deadbeats. If an artist is not protected by a label, there's no point of incentive to release their music. Third, my music is intensely desired. I'm a prime target for bootleggers. My price is my compensation for my talent and the music that fans want and wait for. And lastly, its worth every fucking penny. It's the best designer drug on the market.. an endless high of pure fire running thru your veins🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸 VINNIE VINCENT.
I almost can't quite believe what I'm reading. The man is an absolute joke and on another planet. Did that comment deserve the "who the fuck are you..." reply?

The whole thing is laughable.

Fuck me dead.

If he could just get off his arse and release a CD or Vinyl for say $50-$60, i might actually purchase one.
I doubt it will be a masterpiece i listen too when picking up the kids in the car but it'd be nice if it actually saw the light of day......

....that being said,
with all his fucktivity going ons, i'll do my best NOT to buy a copy and get a download if available.
Listen to it once, be glad I didnt buy it, and put rock n Roll over on instead

For the US market even $50-60 is a lot. Peter's new album is under $30 on vinyl, and you can get it from Target!!!

https://www.target.com/p/peter-criss-pe ... nk=sametab

There is just no sanity left in Vinnie's mind. His music is intensely desired and is a prime target for bootleggers. Just like he was a prime target that needed protection lest he suffer a Lennon style death. In your own mind Vinnie.

Do a proper release, like every other artist, or go home. They seem to be able to, even in this wasteland we are living in.

Let's also not forget that this won't even be a real CD single, like real artists would release, this is a burnt CD blank, like the bootleggers release. How ironic.

Peter is a dead set legend, delivering an album that good as his 80th birthday gift to us all. I bought 3 copies, a vinyl and two CDs for WAY less that what that other person is asking for one song burnt onto a blank CD.

Vinnie announced new music recorded in Nashville over months a few years ago and that it was being held up in pressing plant, why not put that out if its true? Obviously its not true ..... now he is releasing a song ride the serpent thats online and should have certainly not made it to the guitars from hell release... but he releasing a song that sounds like shit instead of the new songs he said he recorded ? Hmmm.. clearly lies as he is so scared to loose very bad music poorly mixed with Robert's demo vocals from around 1990. .. it clearly shows vinnie cant make new music . And is clutching on to the very little he has ... if he had new music he wouldn't be worried about garbage album fillers at best

It's painfully obvious to those paying attention that everything with Vinnie is lies. All the new music, the bands he was going to peform with, their rehearsals, all lies.

There's nothing new under Vinnie's sun.

Looking at Vinnie's statement about the "hopeful release" of the song, vs his statement about the cost to the fans is interesting.

On one hand, the song will come out "if support is there", but on the other hand his music is "intensley desired". There should be no question in his mind that this will sell out, and sell out easily, due to how desired and wanted his music is.

In defense of Vinnie i believe the mean jokes about vinnies aperance are totally unacceptable. I understand the uproar on his business ideas and non stop announcements that never happen but the appearance jokes are not cool. Vinnie looked like female from at least 1986 .. its not a new thing and if Vinnie feels more female than male or if be just feels more comfortable looking how vv presents himself now then a actually think thats a heroic thing to do. Criticize music or lack of it or business ideas but when it gets to be an attack on someone's look of physical presentation I dont care for it. . The good thing is unless Vinnie hiding it Vinnie seems to take those comments more on the chin unlike the other comments

For sure Dino. Hurtful comments about Vinnie's look are unwarranted and lame. You might have thoughts about Vinnie, that he looks strange, nothing like his 80's heyday, but hey, it's 2025, people change.

There is plenty to talk about and criticise with Vinnie's bussines acumen, or lack thereof. Plenty.

Yeah, interesting change, as I do remember there being a lawyer listed, cause that is usually pretty odd, but standard practice for Vinnie, so not odd, just the usual. Strange that it was changed though, unless he's no longer being represented by this guy, another falling out?

So it looks like the "drums" on this track, and probably the others, are new, redone drum tracks, as Keary Jordan has only popped up fairly recently in the Vinnie world. He was the guy who created the backing tracks for the POS performance at Creatures Fest 2022.

What happened to the original drums?

There are sound bytes on you tube of some of these songs, Ride the Serpent, A new version of Heavy Metal Poontang and a new version of Youngblood with Robert Fleishman vocals. Some of the bytes sound OK and the guitar playing is very good, this is what we have been asking for nearly 30 years if you can believe that but Vinnie always finds a way to fuck things up. I would love to have these new songs and new arrangements of existing songs but it doesn't look like it will ever happen due to Vinnie's mental Illness. Like Chaim Witz stated, "you could give Vinnie the keys to the gate of heaven and he would throw the keys away"
I'm in my 60's now and I have evolved through a blend of life's cruelty and blessings. We live somewhere between Heaven and Hell and then we die. I hear what Dino wrote and I hear Vic's support which are modern progressive stances and I respect both these gentlemen view points. Vinnie's choice for his appearance is inevitably how he ends up marketing himself. Marketing is his sales package and people buy things that they like the look of and the sound and feel of. I don't personally care for the way that Vinnie presents himself and I also didn't like the look that he had for Invasion's first album but thought his presentation of himself was improved for All Systems Go. In marketing you put your best foot forward in an attempt to appeal to as many people as possible. In good marketing you never want alienate 90% of your possible customers to appeal to the 10%. The serman is over now and to be balanced I would absolutely buy this music for the musical genius, ferocious guitar playing and phrasing if it was available from reputable source and was a reasonable price. In sales you want to find that sweet spot of value where you sell the maximum amount of units for the maximum profit tied to those maximum sales units which equals the most overall gross profit dollars. Vinnie is clueless........ I can enjoy the music that I hear while not looking at what repulses my eyes. Vinnie was a very talented artist and we may not hear these remaining tracks until after he passes and his daughters release the music with guidance from others for a reasonable return. If it were not for mental illness and poor management Vinnie could have been an icon like Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert etc. What a waste of talent........

Re: And so it begins, Vinnie to release CD single song.....

Post by Genebaby »

Oh I hear ya Kev. I definitely not a fan of Vinnie's current look, I certainly don't understand why he would want to present this way, I never would want to look like that in a million years. I don't think Dino is a fan either. What he was saying, and I can relate, is not to hate on the "guy" for the way he looks. He seems to be lost in the middle of being a man and a woman, not quite one or the other, and it's not appealing. The best thing "he" can do is make a proper choice one way or the other and present the best version in either camp.

We've all been asking for this for a LOOOOONG time, but also have been asking for it to be reasonably priced and released through proper channels. Suprise, surprise, neither of these things are happening, and so this isn't really going to be released because nobody wants it this way. Ah well, such is life, as the Australian Bushranger Ned Kelly said before he died. Maybe Vinnie will say it too, before he dies and we get our grubby mits on the music finally. It could really be any day now, so we may as well just keep waiting like we already have been.

All Vinnie has done is completely ruined any shred of dignity and reputation he ever had with his actions since 2018, which is super sad, but also not a surprise, really. He started out ok, but returned to type, and here we are.

Vinnie is clueless in business, and I know you're not Kev, you know how business works. Vinnie is failing at Business 101 but he doesn't seem to care.

Promises made, crying in vain, all empty. Never accepting the blame and not letting go of the shame. A river of tears, as months turn to years, all wasted. On someone not willing to change.Now only a shadow remains! :(

Great post Vic,
The word Androgynous comes to mind

"Androgynous describes having characteristics or an appearance that blends both masculine and feminine traits, existing beyond traditional gender norms, and can refer to a person's identity, expression (style, clothing), or even biological features. It signifies a mix of male and female qualities, often creating an ambiguous or neutral presentation that challenges the binary, seen in fashion, art, and self-identity."

It is Vinnie's Prerogative and right to fail but no one should want to see to another fail especially with a talent like Vinnie has

Oh yes, androgynous is a thing. I did forget about that term. I don't think being androgynous is working for Vinnie, a bit like how being glam like the NY Dolls didn't work for KISS when they first tried that look. Being built the way they were, the glam look looked terrible on them, and being the way "he" is, the androgynous look doesn't look great either.

Except, unlike KISS who saw the issue and immediately stopped and found the right look, Vinnie is persisting with his broken look and broken business ways.

It's just sad, he could be so much happier and richer, but yeah, it's probably mental illness that is doing all this, and nobody can or is willing to help him.

Mental illness, or just a really bad personality, will we ever know?

It's only Art if it's Hung Well.
From my understanding of VV, (and in his own words) his 'mystic' approach to everything, including his sexual orientation, leaves a lot to unanswered questions, so all we know is - shim ain't hung at all. ALERT! ALERT! insert disclaimer!!! - Not that there is anything wrong with that. :D :D :D

I saw this article and it made me wonder, had Vinnie taken down the posts where he has been saying how great his music is, and picking on his fans for not being able to afford it etc?

https://metalwani.com/2026/01/vinnie-vi ... versy.html

There's more grandstanding here about the "new" music and I had a look and couldn't find the other stuff or this on his Facebook page.

Has he scrubbed it, but of course, the information is still out there....

If it's Vinnie, it's just air, if it's another artist, you can prepare to order to their product.

You won't get the same whining you get with Vinnie, they will release their product and go with it.

Not the farce that we get with Vinnie, that everyone laughs about.

Yep,

I saw Sebastian Bach's post showing his upcoming 2026 tour list.
Just amazing the amount of sweat these guys, the guys that still tour from any band, still pump into their craft at their age.
I saw Sebastian in Sydney a few weeks back doing album 1 from Skiddies.
So freegan good.

What does Vinnie have? Nothing, nothing but words.

He's the only one whining about the state of the industry, everyone else is getting it done, while he's doing nothing except being mocked wherever his name is mentioned.

I would bet that his whining and moaning would make people who don't even care about his music (most people) become actively interested in acquiring it for free just because of all this fuss. They certainly wouldn't be interested in buying anything he does and probably wouldn't have even listened for free, but they might try and get it if possible now.

He literally makes things worse every week.

What's interesting, is that we've been hearing about the music is coming for years and years now, since the "comeback". There have been more than one listening party, the album was finished and just had to go to the presses etc. All lies.

What we just got shoved down our collective throats is an all new approach. The US$200+ per song burnt cd bonanza. This was never mentioned until it just happened.

Something could have been mentioned in Atlanta 2018. - "Oh yeah, I've got that album ready. Let me give you a heads up, if you're in the market for a used car, put that purchase off and put those $$$ towards my album."

But no, we got other lies and excuses, and teases. Some people thinking, it's really gonna happen soon, Vinnie will release his long awaited album and cement his triumphant return. Ace does it. Peter just did it, Vinnie can do it.

No. Vinnie can't do it. He's beaten by every other ex KISS member who has put out legitimate product you can buy at legitimate outlets. He wants us to think there are 1000 people willing to pay over US$200 for each song and that he's gonna be sitting at his PC, burning 1000 discs every release.

Yeah, right, pull the other one Vinnie, it's got bells on.

Does anyone know of this guy? He is either a completely delusional f**kwit or taking the piss out of VV.
