KISS Vinyl Records

With their iconic makeup and pyrotechnic live shows, KISS has been rocking audiences for over four decades. Formed in 1973 by Gene Simmons (vocals, bass) and Paul Stanley (vocals, guitar), the band has undergone several lineup changes but remains a beloved institution in rock music.

KISS is perhaps best known for their theatrical live shows, which feature elaborate costumes, pyrotechnics, and even blood-spitting. But beneath the flash and spectacle lies a catalog of catchy, hard-rocking songs that have become staples of classic rock radio. From "Rock and Roll All Nite" to "Detroit Rock City," KISS's music is equal parts energetic and anthemic.

Despite their bombastic stage presence, KISS has always been about the music. They've released a staggering 20 studio albums, including the platinum-selling Purple Rain, which featured hits like "I Was Made for Lovin' You" and "Shout It Out Loud." And while they may not have always received critical acclaim, KISS's enduring popularity is a testament to their ability to connect with fans on a deep level.
