NO, NO, NO (from the KISS CD "CRAZY NIGHTS")

Standard tuning
Comments: Wouldn't surprise me if Eric wrote most of these riffs. I don't
really like this song, it's too...well, metal almost. It just doesn't fit
KISS somehow. There are quite a few notes that almost sound muted and the
overall sound of the bass is very midrangey and with a pronounced "plink"
in every pick stroke. Also, check out the serious dissonance in Rhy. Fig
where the bass plays an F# against the G5 on the guitar. Ouch!
