On playing it straight:

"When I first saw them when I was a little boy they scared the *bleep* out of me. But my favorite song was 'Rock and Roll All Nite'. I didn't know that was KISS. This is the dude that spits blood! I go 'How can that be?'"
Sebastian Bach, VH1's 100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs on "Rock and Roll All Nite" (#16).

"For years, people have made hilarious assumptions about the 'meaning' of the band, or its 'message', and by extension, assumptions about the individuals behind the project. To those people I would simply suggest that you familiarize yourself with the notion of a 'persona' in a creative work, and stop assuming that the 'speaker' of each song is one of the members of the band."
