KISS To Continue Raiding Vaults For DVD Series

November 16, 2006

Gary Graff of Billboard.com reports: With the new "Kissology: The Ultimate Kiss Collection Vol. 1 1974-1977" lodged atop Billboard's Top Music Video chart, KISS' Gene Simmons promises there's more where that came from.

"We hope it's going to be a 10-volume set," Simmons tells Billboard.com. "Volume 2 is being worked on right now. I'm not allowed to talk too much about it, but [it will be released] in the next six months to eight months. We don't want to wait. This is a lot of fun. People are enjoying this. We're actually proud of it."

The first "Kissology" features vintage concerts from San Francisco, Detroit, Tokyo, Houston and New York along with TV appearances, promotional videos and a documentary about Kiss Day in 1975 in Cadillac, Mich.

"Some of the stuff that tugs at my heart is the really, really early days," Simmons notes, "the sort of innocence of it when you're exuberant and happy to be alive. You don't realize that the same band and the same guys would become dysfunctional, and that drugs and alcohol and egos and the rest of that would happen later on."
