Paul Stanley; New KISS Album???

[hojam]

PAUL STANLEY 'Open To The Idea' Of Recording A Brand New KISS Album
From: Classic Rock Magazine
Posted: November 18, 2008

KISS rhythm guitarist/vocalist PAUL STANLEY has confirmed to the Clog that the band are seriously considering recording a new album. Rumours of a brand new KISS release first surfaced last week on photographer Ross Halfin’s blog. Now Geoff Barton has taken it upon himself to grab the Classic Rock poker and agitate the embers of speculation (poetic, huh?!).

Barton recently talked to Stanley and asked him:

What does the future hold for KISS?

It looks like we’ll be touring Europe as well as the States next year. You’ll be getting more of what you saw at the Download festival this past summer – the KISS Alive! vibe amped up to the max. There might even be a new KISS album at some point. I have been ambivalent to the idea in the past but I’m much more open to it now.

Why is that?

Well, I thought that I'd be content for KISS to remain a heritage act, just playing our greatest hits – Detroit Rock City and all that. But the new KISS line-up with TOMMY THAYER (guitar) and ERIC SINGER (drums) is proving to be so good, so strong in spirit, it would interesting to see how we perform in the studio. I must stress that no recording time has been booked at this point. But it if we were to go into the studio, the intention would be to make a KISS album in the style of our 1970s recordings. A classic KISS album, unmistakably.

That would be awesome & I think it just might happen. I think after seeing how all the hype is working for the new AC/DC & Guns & Roses albums Gene & Paul are probably seeing there is a market out there for classic hardrock bands & they will jump on that bandwagon. I walk into the Walmart's around my area & there are AC/DC logos & displays everywhere, even in the underwear department & I can see the same thing happening with Kiss

I think if Gene and Paul were smart and recorded a smokin album at the front end of this resurgence, it might have worked well for them...but they are "thinking" about it right now...by the time they get going on the idea and get it out, the big push for this kind of music may have passed again and they will be shuffled to the back of the deck again...I hope not, but I think they may be late on this one.

I hope they can do something that is even remotely close to their 70's stuff.
