Kiss planning to 'kick some butt' in 2011 with their 20th album
Kiss are set to enter the studio in March and hope to have a new
album, their 20th, out by the end of the year.
The band's 2009 album 'Sonic Boom'was their 19th
full studio release, and marked the first time they'd put out an
album for over ten years.
Speaking to Backstageaxxess, guitarist Tommy
Thayer said: "We'll probably be in the studio by March, so
sometime this year I'm sure you'll see a spanking new
Kiss album that's going to kick some butt!"
Despite the 11-year gap between 1998's 'Psycho
Circus' and 'Sonic Boom', their 19th album
turned out to be the band's highest-ever charting album.
"We are starting to work on writing some songs, and we'll approach
it just like we did with 'Sonic
Boom',"Thayer said of the new album. "Keep it
all in the band in terms of the writing, with no agenda besides
writing great rock'n'roll songs that we love."
Thayer also said that the new album would once again
be produced by the band's frontman Paul Stanley.
"Paulknows more what a Kiss record should sound
like than anybody," he said, "so he is going to lead the charge and
produce it again."
