Rock And Brews Opening With Paul Stanley

Fans of Kiss were never really sure if the the legendary rock band intends to go back and hit the studios again to record a new album for 2016.

There have been numerous reports of Gene Simmons feeling highly optimistic about Kiss releasing a new album for 2016. However, Paul Stanley was quoted to have said that the band can proceed without necessarily having to release a new record, according to sources.

"There has to be a purpose to us doing an album," the guitarist said in an interview when the topic a new album being released this 2016 was brought up, courtesy of Loudwire.

He added, "There was a time when we did albums because the contracts said so. But I only want to work now when it's justified. 'Sonic Boom' was an album that was very much needed to be done and 'Monster' just felt like, Well, we did' 'Sonic Boom' - let's see where we go from here."

"Having accomplished that, I feel we can move forward without new music. There are enough things going on in KISS that right now it doesn't feel utterly necessary to make a new album," he said, via Classic Rock.

However, Gene Simmons was reported to have had a different opinion about Kiss releasing a new album this 2016.

"It will happen when we have time," the bassist said in an interview, courtesy of Ultimate Classic Rock.

"I have music in me that needs to come out. I recently wrote a song called 'Your Wish Is My Command.' It feels like a Kiss song and it just needs to be released on a Kiss album," he added.

Simmons insisted that his bandmate Stanley was onboard the project and that the latter was going to produce the new record when he said, "I'm glad about that-I no longer have the energy to come to the studio every day," AXS quoted.

"Paul doesn't have so many other things in his life that demand attention, so he can concentrate fully on the project," he concluded.
