Because some of the fans of the mid-nineties are nostalgic for Kiss's first band, which has been disbanded since the drummer Peter Criss left in 1980 (followed by guitarist Ace Frehley in 1982), the band announces a reshaping of the line. In 1983, Kiss abandoned makeup and enjoyed a return to commercial success that lasted the rest of the decade. These characters are a time joined by the "warrior Ânkh" (Vinnie Vincent) and the "fox" (Eric Carr). With their makeup and costumes, they take on a comic book character style: the "demon" (Gene Simmons), the "star" (Paul Stanley), the "man of space" (Ace Frehley then Tommy Thayer ) and the "cat man" (Peter Criss then Eric Singer). Paul Stanley (vocals and rhythm guitar), Gene Simmons (vocals and bass guitar), Ace Frehley (solo guitar and vocals), and Peter Criss (drums, percussion and vocals) are the most recognizable and the most success. He is also one of the forerunners of glam metal, a genre very popular in the 1980s.Īmong the group's biggest hits are the hits I Was Made for Lovin 'You, Rock and Roll All Nite, Detroit Rock City, Love Gun, Beth, Shout It Out Loud, Lick It Up, or Heaven's on Fire.

He was formed in January 1973 by guitarist Paul Stanley and bassist Gene Simmons. I’m very much looking forward to that.Kiss is an American rock band from New York. So we’ll see how it goes when we get back in there and continue writing.

“But I can still build songs and I can still get a mean riff out. I don’t try to set the mark too high now because, obviously, my condition means I can’t play guitar like I used to. Basically, you just have to deal with what life throws at you and make the best of it. “I went into it with the understanding that I had to adapt,” said Tipton. He assured us, though, that his songwriting and ear for a riff remain undiminished. Tipton will play on the record but acknowledges he will have to make some allowances for his condition. But I can still build songs and I can still get a mean riff out “If you went back and listened to the last two albums, you can feel the creativity there, and there’s a lot more to come.” “The riffs are very strong and I think it will be a great album,” he told Guitar World. The guitarist recently revealed that there was a new Priest album on the way that would be a little more experimental.
