For three decades now and still going strong, KISS has been regarded as one of the world’s most popular, flamboyant and influential rock bands. Led by rock icons Gene Simmons & Paul Stanley, the band has enjoyed tremendous success including multi-platinum album sales, chart-topping radio hits, and their spectacular arena & stadium live concert performances. Overall, KISS has been awarded 22 gold albums, reflected by worldwide sales now exceeding 80 million units.

Originally hailing from New York City, the band first debuted in 1974 with their self-titled album, KISS, on Casablanca Records. The group went on to record an impressive list of chart-topping studio albums.  In addition, each of the original four band members released solo albums, all of which went platinum.  Adding to their succes are Alive I and Alive II, recordings from their thunderous live performances, plus their best-selling acoustic album, KISS Unplugged.

KISS leaders Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley have written (jointly or separately) classic rock anthems such as “Rock and Roll All Nite,” “Detroit Rock City,” “Shout It Out Loud” and “Lick It Up.”  In addition, Simmons and Stanley have demonstrated their ability to write and perform a wide range of rock & pop styles, from the playful romantic hits “Christine Sixteen,” “I Was Made For Lovin’ You” and “Calling Dr. Love,” to the acoustic “Hard Luck Woman,” and the power ballad, “Forever.”

Over the years, the KISS legacy has continued to grow through support from its worldwide legion of fans, the KISS Army.  Through their impressive live performances, extensive collection of stellar rock & pop hits, and  an approach to branding unparalleled in the world of music, KISS has secured a place in the history of popular culture, forever.
