Get ready to raise a glass of cold gin, throw up the horns, and celebrate the incredible legacy of the legendary Ace Frehley! This week on The Heavy Metal Hangover, Rex and Duff dedicate the entire main segment to the Space Ace, discussing his signature tone, his overlooked songwriting contributions, and the true cultural impact he had on an entire generation of guitarists. We'll be talking about his classic tracks like "Shock Me," "New York Groove," and the enduring anthem, "Cold Gin."
Following the tribute, we dive into a round of KISS-themed "King of the Mountain" Tough Choices! It's the ultimate battle of impossible decisions, where we pit iconic albums, singles, and eras against each other. Is it the raw energy of Alive! vs. the perfection of Destroyer?
