November 5, 2010, 14 years ago
According to Ultimate-guitar.com, the official YouTube video channel of American glam legends KISS has been closed for breaching copyright laws – just weeks after bassist Gene Simmons controversially called for all rights breakers to be sued and jailed.
Visitors to the band’s OfficialKISSonline channel were advised in a YouTube error message: “This channel has been terminated due to multiple or severe violations of our community guidelines, and/or claims of copyright infringement.”
Some KISS videos embedded on the band website’s front page were replaced with the message: “This video is no longer available because the associated YouTube account has been terminated.”
At least one replacement message stated S’more Entertainment had lodged a breach of rights claim against KISS.
