KISS's Paul Stanley Talks Monster And Classic Bands That Inspired Him

KISS's Paul Stanley Talks Monster And Classic Bands That Inspired Him
7/18/2012 1:11 PM ET

Those waiting for KISS to release their new album won't have to wait much longer, according to guitarist Paul Stanley, who told Reuters that their new album Monster is done:

"Monster is done. It's heart is beating, and it's chained down until we release it in October. I was asked if it's a great Kiss album and I said, 'Forget about Kiss - I truly believe it's far beyond being a Kiss album. It's a great album of its genre with all the elements of all the classic bands that I listened to."

Stanley went on to list some of his personal influences, including the Who, Rolling Stones, Humble Pie, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin.

"That's what I grew up with, and it inspired me to create passion, chaos, something sexually aggressive that'd celebrate life. That's a description of rock 'n' roll."
