KISS bassist can see a return to their glory days with new album

Thu, 05 May 2011

KISS bassist Gene Simmons says the veteran rockers have five new tracks ready for their new album, and believes their twentieth studio LP  will be a blast back to their glory days for the bands legions of fans.

In an interview with Elliot in the Morning (WWDC-FM), Simmons said: "Yes, we’ve been in the studio and we’re halfway through it. We got five tracks done in two days so it may be the fastest record we’ve ever done and it really sounds terrific and Paul Stanley is really doing a great job."

"All the songs are band-written, co-written together with no outside writers. I could describe it for those out there who are KISS fans as a cross between Destroyer and Revenge – very similar."

"So there’s no rapping, no mixing, none of that stuff. Straight ahead meat and potatoes, guitars, drums and some throat-wrenching vocals."

This will be the first album for the flamboyant glam metallers since 2009's 'Sonic Boom' album, which hit #2 on the Billboard album chart.
