Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons, the sons of KISS legends Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, are getting set for the full length release of their “Simmons Stanley” project, and the duo also made their live debut earlier this month. “Dancing While The World is Ending” is set for an Aug. 28 release, and three singles from the record are already available.
The pair hasn’t been without its detractors, however, with critics throwing out tired accusations of nepotism claiming the group wouldn’t have the opportunity if not for their famous fathers. One very ugly comment caught the attention of Paul Stanley on X. A user wrote: “F*ck ur kids band!!! They haven’t paid their dues… Who do u think you are.”
Stanley shot back: “You clearly don’t want to accept that your own lack of talent is the reason you continue to fail at everything. If your father was famous you would still get nowhere because you are too busy looking enviously at others instead of looking at yourself and realizing the obvious.”
