Deuce News has issued a new interview with KISS drummer Eric Singer. The following is an excerpt:
Q: Sonic Boom debuted here in Italy and all over Europe really with boom. Did you expect this amazing success all over the place?
A: "We are very happy and excited about Sonic Boom and KISS these days! The band really feels that we made a very strong record and captured the KISS energy on tape that we bring to the stage every night. We thank all of you for the support and are glad you all love it too."
Q: Recently Paul (Stanley) stated that almost the whole album was two takes and the few songs that worried you were because you had to do a third and it was just kind of like as a safety. Was it quite like recording live?
A: "It was recording 'Live" since we played in a room as a band with no click tracks or drum machines to play along with. That is the way records were made in the early years of KISS."
Q: Out of the 11 Sonic Boom songs I have to admit that Tommy's and your are the ones with a sense of freshness and "new" that gave this record a really new vibe in the KISS sound. How it was singing on a new KISS tune? Was Paul very demanding for your vocals?
A: "Tommy and I are both happy to contribute to the KISS sound and add our voices to the songs. Paul was very supportive of me singing in the studio and live and has always been one of my biggest fans for me to sing!"
