Je me meffie des annonces des groupes du style " ça va être notre meilleur album de notre carrière" , en général ceux qui annonces çà sont dans une mauvaise passe (dans le creux de la vague) , étonnant de la part de Kiss , ils n'ont pas besoin de faire çà!
tu va être servi, voila Paul Stanley, sur
http://kissonline.com/, qui en rajoute 3 couches, et qui déclare : l'album a 11 titres, 11 tops !
"If you been reading KissOnline, it's no surprise to you now. We ARE done recording our new album. What might well be a surprise is that at the least, the album is right up there with our best. As much as we may have tried at some other times to achieve this, the chemistry, lineup or lack of total commitment from everyone might have been cause for it being impossible. Not now. Not this time.
"I know that when you hear it you will agree.
"Before we began the album, I said I was only interested in doing it if I produced and we followed set ground rules; total commitment by everyone, pure guitar-driven KISS, no outside writers, no outside players and my opinion and say would always be final. All said yes and I know we'd all say we've never had more fun together.
"All four of us made this our priority. Everyone was involved ever day. From the first day of writing to the last day of recording, everyone was there giving 100% to making this the album we knew we had in us. I've never seen Gene [Simmons] more selfless (yes... Gene!), focused or harder-working. His bass playing, songs and overall contribution help to make this the album you've wanted for so long. Without his spirit, this wouldn't have been possible.
"As far as Tommy's [Thayer] guitar playing, he took this chance at bat to consistently hit it out of the park. His playing is fiery and rooted firmly in our history, while making his own mark. Tommy's singing, writing contributions and total involvement made clear what's been missing for so long.
"In the twenty years I've known Eric [Singer; drums], I've never seen him this relaxed or creative. His playing is the foundation of our next step forward. Relentless and full of spit and swagger. Many lead singers don't have Eric's chops or range. He's singing great on his track and all over the album.
"Wait till you hear what we've got for you.
"Do I sound proud of everyone and what we've done together? I am, and I should be.
"Eleven songs. Eleven winners.
"This IS KISS. Classic KISS.
"It's been a long time coming."
