Američki hard rokeri razmišljaju o povratku u studio, kako ne bi ostali zapamćeni po "eksploataciji" starih pesama na turnejama.

Kiss, koji su u maju otkazali koncert u Beogradu, već godinu dana obilaze svet na turneji "Kiss Alive". Međutim, počeli su sami sebi da zvuče kao tribjut bend, pa žele da snime nove pesme.

"Ranije sam bio skeptičan prema ulasku u studio, ali sve više sam zainteresovan za tu ideju", rekao je pevač Pol Stenli časopisu "Klasik rok".

"Mislio sam da će nas izvođenje starih pesama ispuniti, ali novi članovi koji su sa nama na turneji su toliko dobri muzičari, da moramo da ih isprobamo u studiju".

Iako još uvek nisu zakazali termine u studiju, planiraju da se vrate starom zvuku - glamuru sedamdesetih godina prošlog veka.

"Ukoliko zaista budemo pisali nove pesme, držaćemo se starog Kiss zvuka. Nećemo eksperimentisati, to će biti prava klasična ploča", rekao je Stenli.

Lepe vesti...

Zanimljivo, samo se nadam da se nece odati digitalnoj produkciji, mnogi veterani su to rekli pa su na kraju dropovali gitare i snimali digitalni zvuk 

Daj Boze!!!

АЦ гром ДЦ је остао доследан...

Novi album zvace se "Sonic Boom". Evo i liste pesama:

1. Modern Day Delilah
2. Russian Roulette
3. Never Enough
4. Yes I Know (Nobody’s Perfect)
5. Stand
6. Hot & Cold
7. All The Glory
8. Danger Us
9. I’m An Animal
10. When Lightning Strikes
11. Say Yah

Here’s our quickfire reaction to the six songs we heard:

Modern Day Delilah
Based around a lumbering, War Machine-style rhythm, Paul Stanley’s vocals sound top-notch and timeless, almost like they’ve been sampled from Kiss Alive! Meanwhile, Tommy Thayer’s guitar work is straight out of the Ace Frehley riff book. At a concise 3:35 in length, this is a perfect slam-bang beginning to the new album.

Russian Roulette
Gene Simmons takes the vocals on this one; it’s an archetypal lumbering, grumbling, pummelling offering, made all the better by the addition of a signature ‘ah-ah-ah-ah’ chant-line. The lyrics are simplistic but effective: ‘This is Russian Roulette… one pull of the trigger is all you’re gonna get… you feel the hunger and it’s much too much… go on take a bite.’ To a fan of classic Kiss, that’s sheer poetry.

Never Enough
You’re know you’re on to a winner immediately as this one begins with a time-honoured Stanley shout of… wait for it… ‘Woah yeah!’ This is a much jauntier offering than the preceding two tracks, recalling the more commercial, 1980s side of Kiss. The song has a real reach-for-the-sky spirit, full of uplifting phrases such as ‘rules just for breaking’, ‘life for the taking’ and (you guessed it) ‘love ’til I’m shaking’.

Yes I Know (Nobody’s Perfect)
Another three minutes of perfection. A light-hearted, hyper-commercial tune with Simmons at the mic-stand again, offering a gruff ‘YEAH’ (capital letters, natch) followed by the inevitable invitation: ‘C’mon baby, take off your clothes.’ There’s no word on whether Simmons kept his T-shirt on, however.

Stand
Our favourite so far; a proper anthem recalling the crowd-rousing grandeur of God Gave Rock’N’Roll To You. Stanley delivers the words ‘Stand by my side, I’ll be next to you/Stand by my side, we’ll make it through/Stand by my side, we’ll get by, you and I’ with consummate Starchild passion. This one just grows and grows… and then offers a neat false ending with some soft, CSN&Y-style harmonies (yes, really) before picking up the pace once more.

I’m An Animal
Full of giant, stalking menace, this is based around a dense, Zeppelinesque riff. Thayer plays a marvellous slick-but-stumbling Frehley solo, and you can rest assured the lyrics – ‘I’m an animal and I’m free… I’m an animal in the street’ – don’t refer to an old lady with her poodle off the leash. Late in the song, the band issue the urge: ‘Stand up, raise your fists.’ Little do they know, we’ve been doing that since track one…

Album ce biti objavljen 6. oktobra 2009.

hvala za ovako opsirnu informaciju.
nadam se da ce biti rock´n´roll -a

Novi Kiss u oktobru
Veterani hevi metala objaviće novi album nakon 11 godina pauze.

Izdanje "Sonic boom" obuhvatiće tri CD-a, od kojih će jedan sadržati nove pesme koje su članovi benda spremali tokom decenije odsustva.

Ekskluzivno pravo prodaje albuma dobio je lanac prodavnica "Volmart", koji je nedavno tako prodavao albume The Eagles, AC/DC, Foreigner i drugih.

"Kiss je prava ikona muzike, i drago nam je što smo odabrani za ovakvu saradnju", rekao je muzički direktor lanca Tom Velč.

Članovi benda poručuju fanovima da će "Sonic boom" biti jedinstveno iskustvo.

Među pesmama na novom albumu naćiće se "Russian roulette", "Modern day Delilah", "Stand", "Rotten to the core", "Maiden flight" i druge.

Album je u celini producirao Pol Stenli, ritam gitarista i jedan od dva glavna vokala benda.

"Poslednjih nekoliko decenija, niko se nije bavio produkcijom na način koji meni odgovara. Bendovi kao da nisu skoncentrisani, kao da se ne trude. Zato sam produkciju preuzeo na sebe", rekao je Stenli.                     

"Sonic boom" pojaviće se u prodaji .6 oktobra.

Bend je trebalo da nastupi prošlog maja u Beogradu, ali je koncert bio otkazan zbog političke i bezbednosne situacije u Srbiji.

nadam se da ce biti bolji od zadnjeg solo albuma pola stenlija

Ma oni su skloni komercijalizaciji, gruvali hard, pa onda je bilo glam rock uticaja, nemam neka ocekivanja iskreno, mada opet, to je neko moje razmisljanje.
