Their appearance fuels speculation that the next KISS album may be a Wal-Mart exclusive.
Ohio's QFM96 spoke with Simmons about the band's new as-yet-untitled album and tour.
"It's the first studio album in 11 years," Simmons says. "You can't force those things - it's in your blood and it's happening. I have to say, this might be the best new record we've done since Destroyer. In fact it has a similar sound; Rock And Roll Over meets Love Gun sounding record. That's coming out in September/Octrober and then we will be doing a 60-city American tour."Check out the entire interview at this location.
