V1 I painted a picture perfect day Invited you to join me on the journey of the century But you went another way I created a catastrophe proof life It would never get old as we watched the years unfold I backed right into the knife Pre Chorus: It can never be that simple Got a running start and tripped on the details Chorus: Set fire to the pages that we wrote together Cauterize forever with a glowing ember There are no words to take us back to the beginning Another sob story with a lovesick ending V2 So convinced you were worth the wait I did everything you asked of me, hoping ever patiently I watched it all disintegrate I felt the shock in electric waves Blindsided by betrayal, that final blow was fatal Someday you’ll get what you gave V3 How easy I was to replace Staring down the agony, I’m just another casualty Penciled in and then erased Once again I find myself alone No more safe haven it’s a dead end destination I’m left here and you’re gone Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

V1 The glorious empire crumbles Paradise reduced to nothing but rubble The mighty are crawling The mortal are stalling Hell’s taking over while heaven is falling Pre-chorus Rancid air reeks of wrath Red rivers carry rotting pacts Days ablaze, scorched earth cries Stone cold lips kiss salvation goodbye Chorus: Let fate reign down The angels bleed black Crying for help, help is not coming back Let fate reign down Help is not coming back Keep crying for help These angels bleed black V2 The inner circle is shrinking Overlords bound by their own overthinking Creatures of war, fools to the core They’re fighting for less and they’re dying for more Bridge: Good mothers lay waste to evil sons daughters draw strength to claim the throne delicious greed of empty souls Starving like dogs in bags of bones Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

V1 There’s nothing kind about the human race Where the zealots judge because they’re all afraid Stripping us of our last shred of dignity We’re glorified slaves, we’re all up for trade Pre-chorus: Generate panic, call yourself an activist Activate hatred, call yourself a pacifist Pacify the enemy, call yourself a patriot Patronize society, we’re going down in infamy Chorus: This is the last stand, we are the hanged man From our deathbed, bow to the tyrant V2 There’s nothing fair about affairs of the state Distracting us from our freedoms at stake Banking on unwavering apathy We’re all gonna pay, it’s not up for debate Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

Cut these handcuffs from my wrists Break the chains of habit You’re not so easy to resist If you insist I’ll make the effort Pre-chorus: Leave me here in pieces craving your redemption What does it take to get your attention? Tomorrow’s a new day Chorus: I’m better off gone, life goes on and so will I I’m better off gone, life goes on – watch me vanish Beware the line you’ve crossed I’m better off gone, life goes on – watch me vanish Chase after conquests of my mind Walk a fatal trail You get ahead and then you fall behind Silver lined in lessons of failure Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

V1 You can forge all the truths You believe in do they align with your souls darkest sins Got what you wanted Is it what you expected? King of the useless Infectious seduction Prechorus: Lucky for you…Lucky for you.... Chorus Shot down a thousand chances Cease and desist, why do you exist? Shot down a thousand chances How far can you stretch? push it over the edge Now your number’s up You’re down for the count V2 You can justify careless Reactions Recklessly gloating your own satisfaction Took what you craved Long for what you rejected Lord of the failures Wake of destruction Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

Fired Up 03:10
Fired up gonna get fired up, hear ‘em shout! gonna get fired up, bring on another one! gonna get fired up, hear ‘em shout gonna get fired up, here comes another one! V1 Set the stage, lock your sights Under the heat of these bright, white lights Winner take all, step up or fall Knock down, drag out Too close to call Pre-chorus: Come out fighting Go down swingin’ Eye on the prize In it to win it V2 This flame can rage all night Under the flags of all the hyped up hype Get up and go, bring on the show Take down, break out Strike the last blow V3 The time has come to fight this fight Head in the game, tonight’s our night Lay it all on the line, get in the zone Stand out, Make it count Drive it on home Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

OPEN UP YOUR MIND The world’s been trying to turn you bitter For as long as you can remember When your dreams come calling Better heed their warning Let the chaos be your guide Get up – fly like a hero Fall down – die like a zero It’s ok to admit that you don’t know Open up your mind Pre-chorus Don’t accept anything you’re told Set it up so they can knock you down What goes around never comes around Let it eat you alive or walk away and let it go Chorus: What’s done is done No sense in blaming anyone Latch onto the fabric of who you have become What’s done is done You’re not the only one Who’s made a few mistakes that they Wish they could outrun Open up your mind Open up your mind V2 It may seem hopeless, but it gets better In due time you will discover Redirect your power To your finest hour Take the obstacles in stride Rev up – you’re flyin’ solo Crack down – bring on the mojo Head held high and own it like a pro Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

THROW IT ALL AWAY Another fix for your addiction, Fill the void with poison Can you mold this day into the glamour of perfection Sweat out the fever, feel immune to the toxins The words run together and you’ve run out of options Release the panic and fade Don't be concerned about a bridge being burned when you didn't light the match fight to the bitter end Expire by fire, rise again Listen for the beginning of a sudden change Pieces don’t fit no matter how they’re rearranged Screams of recollections, tell you to remember Dead in August, buried in December He who lives in a system that taught him He who hides from the victim who caught him Won’t confess to what he’s thrown away Throw it all away, throw it all away Another mark for your obsession, minimize the treason How can someone be so cruel, he says he’s got his reasons Scrap all the wreckage, strike the resistance Everything you believed in can change in an instant Unleash the power and fade Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

V1 There is a shadow That lives on the wall It sees every motion It hears every word Look for its presence find nothing at all It smells arcane desire It knows you play with fire Pre-chorus: You’ll be found out, You’ll be exposed And it’s no one’s fault except your own Chorus: Stranger I bid you farewell You’re a sick, sick beast And it’s too soon to tell your tale You can’t escape, can’t escape from yourself Broken soul, fractured mind Trapped in time, you fall behind Welcome to hell Welcome to hell V2 There is a ghost That lives in your head It melts your subconscious It reads every thought You scream at the voices The voices are dead Caring nothing for your pain A phantom without a name Bridge: It may seem bad, but it’s gonna get worse V3 There is a dagger That lives in your heart Feels wounds you’ve inflicted And beats to repay You’d take it all back If it wasn’t too late Hear the echo of what you’ve done Brace yourself for what’s to come Copyright 2016 Stolen Kisses Music (BMI)

about

State of the Art by METAL NEXUS

3 Kisses. Where the hell do you start describing a band that has been around since January 2004, performed thousands of shows, has nine albums under their belts, been in endless music magazines, on countless radio stations, been on ABC’s “Wife Swap”, had their own reality show, been featured in numerous commercials, video games, movies and TV shows (including the 2014 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards; Restaurant Impossible; Diners, Drive Ins & Dives; Dallas Card Sharks; Disaster Decks; Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare; Sonic Boom; Lifetime movies, and Hot Wheelsspots), had songs in the Top 15 by Rock Solid Preasure, is currently rated #1 for Alaskan Alternative Music onReverbNation, heavily supports breast cancer research through the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure and theAmerican Cancer Society and been inducted into the Independent Artist Registry? I honestly don’t know, but let’s give it a shot. Here we go…

Fronted by wild woman, Tish Meeks, 3 Kisses is a Punk/Rock/Hard Rock/Alternative/Pop (in that order, in my humble opinion) band that calls Wasilla, Alaska home after moving the outfit from Austin, TX. Often being called “A Ball of Fire”, I guess TX just couldn’t take the heat from the sun and Tish Meeks at the same time. But I digress. This band is a serious player in Alaska’s musical landscape. Hard hitting and fast, like a Punk band should be; catchy, shred guitar riffs like any good, 80’s style Rock band; complex, well developed song writing of modern Alternative Rock bands; impassioned and thoughtful lyrics with just enough sarcastic angst to keep things interesting without ruining 3 Kisses,over-the-top “fun factor” are but a few of the trademarks that make 3 Kisses so special. The party definitely starts at their front door, wherever that front door may be when they are performing. That does not mean to say that they are some shallow, bubble-gum BS band though. 3 Kisses hits as hard as Joan Jett, Green Day or The Ramones with the sarcastic playfulness of say, Pink or Avril Lavigne.

Musically, 3 Kisses has a plethora of talent to pull from. Current members include: the charismatic Tish Meeks (of course) on vocals/guitar, Andrew Owens shredding up the guitars, bassist currently TBD (formerly CJ Elliot) and drummer Dale Payne. Vocally, Tish has a voice similar to that of Joan Jett with less rasp and the power, range and clarity of Pat Benatar. On stage, she is said to be an explosive, high energy force that grabs the audience from song one and does not let go until the last note has been played. Definitely not surprising by listening the music alone. On guitar is Andrew Owens who is a freakin’ bad-ass PLAYER. His styles seem to be endless. Punk, Metal, Rock, Blues and shred. It is all there, and all done to absolute perfection! While bass players and drummers have drifted in and out over the years, all have been really good and fit well with 3 Kisses various lineups. Bass parts on the new album are spectacular; playing long, shred-like runs while maintaining perfect tempo and rhythm line. Recently married drummer Dale Payne, has also added a heaviness that has been less prevalent in previous releases. All in all, a musical tour de force with influences ranging fromFrank Zappa and Led Zepplin to Joan Jett and the Go–Gos, to The Cranberries and Blondie all the way to Korn, Tool and Marilyn Manson assuring that their fan base is diverse and spread across just about every genre of music fan out there.
Having earned sponsors/endorsements from Jagermeister, Paul Reed Smith Guitars, Dirtbag Clothing, Daisy Rock Guitars, Miller Lite, Dunlop, Coffin Case, GoGirls Music, Texas Independent Musicians, Music Gorilla, Old Dog Products and Powered by Sam Ash, you can expect to love much, if not all of 3 Kisses music. With recently released“Angels Bleed Black” darker and heavier leaning towards Hard Rock or traditional Metal, 3 Kisses continues to evolve and morph into a do it all monster of a band!
