KISS - Maximizing Profit Caused Paul Stanley's Surgery
November 10, 2011, 12 years ago
Paul Stanley of KISS had surgery October 26th to “tweak” blood vessels in his vocal cords. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Stanley says he powered through four decades of concerts “through sheer willpower” so the band could “cram in as many shows as possible to maximize profit.” But, he cautions, “the nature of rock singing is a strain on the voice and when you compound that with that amount of shows, you're not giving yourself time to recuperate and the problem is compounded… I was finding myself working harder and harder to do what was once effortless, and having already passed through puberty, I was surprised to hear my voice cracking.”
KISS will release their new album, Monster, sometime in 2012.
