Kiss consider recording new album

Kiss frontman Paul Stanley says he is now more open to recording a new album, though no studio time has been booked and it would aim for a 1970s sound.

You can never have too many Kiss albums, can you? That's what I always say. Well, if you take "always" to mean "never". However, I don't think I'm in the band's target market. So, there are bound to be some people out there who are ecstatic to learn that Kiss frontman Paul Stanley has changed his previously resistant stance on the idea of a new album from the band.

Speaking to Classic Rock magazine on the subject of Kiss' future, Stanley said: "It looks like we'll be touring Europe as well as the States next year. ... There might even be a new Kiss album at some point. I have been ambivalent to the idea in the past but I'm much more open to it now. ... I thought that I'd be content for Kiss to remain a heritage act, just playing our greatest hits - 'Detroit Rock City' and all that. But the new Kiss line-up with Tommy Thayer [guitar] and Eric Singer [drums] is proving to be so good, so strong in spirit, it would interesting to see how we perform in the studio. I must stress that no recording time has been booked at this point. But it if we were to go into the studio, the intention would be to make a Kiss album in the style of our 1970s recordings. A classic Kiss album, unmistakably".
