People have mixed feelings about covers, but I love when bands pay tribute to other artists they admire. The Donnas have covered Motley Crue, Judas Priest, Billy Idol, Kiss, REO Speedwagon, Alice Cooper and a bunch more. Definitely worth a quick search and a listen. It'll give you a good idea where they're coming from.

Is covering KISS supposed make us like them more or less?

More. Definitely more

I wonder what their career trajectory would’ve looked like if they rose to fame as The Electrocutes, their “other” band comprised of... the same people, just more metal-er. And Mitch, I definitely remember the green Fruit Stripe gum being distinguishable from the red. How dare you. Fantastic Chauncey reference, though!
