    Episode 564. Steve Brown and Joey Cassata join us to talk about the new Ace Frehley album 10,000 Volts. So much discussed about how this new album happened and who was involved. What were the two things Ace insisted be on the album? Were other cover tunes discussed? Who wrote the songs? Who played on the album? The album production and recording process. What about another Ace Frehley Origins album? Oh yeah and are there any future plans for Steve’s band Tokyo Motor Fist?

    As with all great albums, like early Kiss, Hotter than Hell, Destroyer, Dressed to Kill, Rock n Roll Over, ..solo albums, ....every recording include a great band, great artist and a great producer/engineer! And this album is exact what we could dream of. The BEST! A producer is also arranger together with the artist. Ace Nailed it! This is the album we wanted, and the sound is punchy and hot. Songs are hits.
    It's just one more dream on the wish list ..... a reunion performance of Kiss with Ace, Gene, Paul and Peter would be nice...but 10000 volts with Ace make us totally satisfied and happy. Can't stop listen to it.

    The album only came out 3 days ago. Today, I picked up my 8 year old daughter from school and she was singing 10,000 Volts. Then I’m driving her to piano lessons and she asked to hear Walking on the Moon and starts singing along to it.

I`m pretty sure this album will start some drama in the near future. I mean, come on.. This is basically a Steve Brown album Feat. Ace Frehley. When the hype calms down, Steve will probably get bitter for it. Just wait and seee.

    I ultimately don't care about vocal processing on the record but I gotta say that I find the "I don't use Auto-tune, so I don't need to go any further than that" comment to be adorable. The follow up question that any other musician familiar with recording software would ask would be "Oh, so was it Melodyne instead?". Auto-Tune is a specific plugin built by a specific company that does pitch-correction. Again, I don't care that the vocals are processed and tuned and I think the album is fun, I just find the lack of transparency about pitch-correction to be funny.

    • @Wyl7

      To be fair, he did admit to using pitch correction software (and rightfully compared it to every album released for years now). But yeah, he absolutely knows that the average non-musician music fan thinks all pitch correction is “Autotune”, and saying “I didn’t use Autotune” is intentionally misleading them.

    Overall good album and any set of songs will be weak or stronger than others. That's how it goes sometimes but what I would love to see for Ace is getting back into a live situation that he's truly ready for. Saw some clips of this year and last year and its not always good. Not sure why or what's happening there but for the fans, would be nice to see it more polished live. The band is good and solid but Ace is not quite up to par live. Just an observation from what I have seen on YT. I get that he's not young, we all aren't but there are some bands out there in their 70's who are solid live and don't disappoint. Ace is right on one factor, Kiss would never put an album like this out before they called it quits.

    Listen to the album about 10 times. Overall for me and I have all of Ace’s albums this is just ok. My favorites are
    10,000 Volts
    Cosmic Heart
    Fightin’ For Life (By far the best)
    Up In The Sky
    I gotta say Cherry Medicine, and Constantly Cute are cringy lyrics and hard to listen to
    IMO I give the album 5/10

    How do you call this a ace album when 95% was written by someone else.im a kiss fan but not blinded by it. I've been playing guitar45 years ace was an influence but his playing in the last 20 years is terrible. Every interview is about kiss and he's milked it. He' lends his name and contributes 5 percent. He attempts to replicate it live and can't. Yes he's a legend a ND influenced many because of kiss. The theatrics and songs contributed. Sorry having studio guys play and polish an album and claiming it as your own is bullshit. He praises the album and all the songs he should he did all the work.

    Mike hold the phone dude! And the guy with glasses in the middle. Hold the freaking phone!

I absolutely love the album song for song! But if I found out that Ace almost didn't play on it at all then why in the heck would I buy it, maybe I would buy it because it has good songs but then don't call it an Ace album don't put his name on it! For crying out loud! It does matter if AC/DC released an album and not one member of AC/DC had anything to do with the album come on dude. We're talking about integrity!!! Fans want to know that Ace has something to do with the writing,.. that he did play guitar on it,.. Otherwise it's fraud. What are you guys even talking about! Seriously you guys got to go back and watch this for yourself and see if you can believe the words that came out of your own mouths. Well then put Steve Brown on the cover and call it 10,000 volts! And see how well it would have sold. Laugh out loud. Come on seriously! The whole fact that people are excited is because it's an ACE release and a lot of fans believe or at least led to believe that Ace played guitar on it. It's okay if Steve played on it also along with Joey, which is awesome, but if Ace almost didn't play guitar on it then what's the freaking point you guys got to check yourselves seriously! We're talking about freaking integrity, honesty. Otherwise it's fraud if you slap Ace's name on it and he had nothing to do with the album. That would be absolute fraud! I mean come on you guys are all old enough to know better than to say garbage like that!

Why wouldn't they all be strong, good songs? If you already know you're putting out a halfway ok record, why should anyone pay for it? I'm trying to get into the songs off the new one. It's okay. After spending $ on all of the crap records of Ace's, I'm not biting. There's not much to taste. Again.

And some of these bands have lots of songs that never seen the light of day and now within the last 10 years those bands have released songs they've been holding onto and their actually great songs! 10,000 volts by Ace frehley, .. All those sounding fresh sounds extremely like the '80s style hair metal! Even has a hint of '70s to it also. So the old guy in the middle thinks he's trying to be hip by saying he don't want stuff from the past. Laugh out loud. Well we don't want the modern day music. That's out there now cuz it's garbage!

      As a long time fan, I can honestly say I consider the Kiss albums after Lick It Up and before Revenge to be an all time low. The most throw away records in the Kiss catalogue (along with Sonic Boom and Monster, and the wretched Carnival). 10,000 Volts does recapture the cheesy feel of the 70's Kiss, and that's why I like it.
      That's why it's so much fun.
