Die KISS Members Paul Stanley (Guitar, Vocals) und Tommy Thayer (Guitar), haben gemeinsam mit Produzent Greg Collins, eine Videobotschaft aus den Collins Studio "The Nook" veröffentlicht. Im Video plaudern die Jungs über das neue Album "Monster".
Folgendes Statement von Stanley: "About two days from [being] finished this album... It's almost done and it's awesome.
It is by far the best thing we've done in I don't know how long. Have I ever said that before? Yeah.
Was I right? Yeah. I'm right this time again... Truly, the album kicks major ass and we're very, very proud of it."
Thayer added, "You're gonna as as excited as we are, 'cause we're really excited. And we're not just saying that. This is great stuff. It's amazing."
Folgendes sagte Stanley in einem 2011'er Interview mit dem U.K. Magazin Classic Rock über den Nachfolger von "Sonic Boom": ""Sonic Boom" was a pivotal album in the sense that we were aware of who we were as a performing band, but we had to re-establish who we are as a recording band.
That being done, this is much easier and that much more self-assured"
Bassist/Vocalist Gene Simmons fügt folgendes bei: "This new record feels heavier than "Sonic Boom". It feels like (it's) a connection between "Destroyer" and "Revenge".
Regarding some of the tracks that will appear on "Monster", Stanley said, "I'd be surprised if the album didn't start with "Hell Or Hallelujah".
It's up-tempo, a great riff, definitive KISS. There's a track called "Born To Be A Sinner", and Tommy (Thayer, guitar) has a song called "Out Of This World", which is terrific.
They're anthemic songs. That's the nature of how we write. There are no ballads."
""Are You Ready?" is a new track that I worked out, wrote, and brought everyone into the studio and said: "Let's bang this out".
Another of the new songs, tentatively titled "Wall Of Sound", we just came up with on the spot. The guts of that song were written in 40 minutes."
"Monster" soll voraussichtlich im Frühjahr diesen Jahres erscheinen.
