KISS are gearing up for the October 9 release of their new album, “Monster.”
The band’s 20th studio album, “Monster” is the group's first new release since 2009’s "Sonic Boom." The project was produced by Paul Stanley with Greg Collins at Conway Studios in Hollywood, California, and The Nook in Studio City, California.
“Monster” features collaborations among all four KISS members — including co-founders Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, and longtime members guitarist Tommy Thayer and drummer Eric Singer.
"There are no symphony orchestras, boy choirs, keyboards, outside producers or songwriters on this album," promises Simmons. "The best thing we did was to turn inwards to ourselves. Tommy and Eric have revitalized this band, with a work ethic and the talent to back it up. This is a real band effort. KISS has become a behemoth. We're going where no bands have gone before."
The album’s first single, "Hell Or Hallelujah," was released in July.
On Wednesday, October 10 – the day after “Monster” hits stores – KISS are scheduled to perform on The Late Show with David Letterman.
