RATM have plenty of absolute belters.

Kiss are like the musical equivalent of Saturday Night Live; revered in America, while the rest of the world has no idea what the fuss is about.

Lenny Kravitz. OK two hits but about 5/6 years apart and that's it.

Yet he has a had a public profile/ career for 30/35 years and

was even flogging fragrance on the Telly Ads for some big fashion designer over the Christmas. I don't get it. Am I missing something?

I guess you'd have to not be a Kiss fan to think their one great song was I Was Made For Loving You. It's generally seen as the start of their decline in popularity. Kiss also had massive hits with Beth and Forever in the States and Crazy, Crazy Nights and God Gave Rock and Roll to You II in Europe. They are probably most famous for Rock and Roll All Nite from their live album Alive! which remains a party anthem. Other great tunes by them include Detroit Rock City, God of Thunder, Calling Dr. Love, Love Gun etc. but if you like IWMFLY then check out Sure Know Something from the same album, Dynasty, or something off the follow up Unmasked.
