June 8, 2009, 15 years ago
Recently Tommy Thayer, lead guitarist in KISS, talked to Guitarra Total, a Spanish music magazine. He revealed he's going to sing lead on the next KISS studio album: "It's a great tune, there is something that people missed, and thst's I am a good singer, I am a good vocalist. I have much experience, but I've never been a solo singer. My voice works well on that and I think people will be surprised. The band is working on a song called 'Rotten To The Core' but it is not the old one. We are recording all new songs. All four of us are involved. It will be the best KISS album in a long time. For what concern new possible costumes for the fall tour a decision will be taken soon."
Ohio's QFM96 spoke with Simmons about the band's new as-yet-untitled album and tour recently.
"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.
