KISS Symphony: Alive IV - Tampa Screening
From: Paul J. Watkins
Some concerts are destined to be classics. You know it as soon as you hear them. The performances, the songs, the attitude converge in such a way that the result truly represents what the artist is all about. That's the feeling I had when I finished listening to the Kiss Symphony: Alive IV CD. And after seeing the Kiss Symphony: Alive IV concert film, it's safe to say the DVD on which it is based is already a classic in the Kiss catalog. A special theatrical version of Kiss Symphony: Alive IV was presented in High Definition at Regal Entertainment Theatres in 21 markets across the country. I attended the screening in Tampa, Florida.

KISS Albums Out Of Print
From:
Bob Rodrick
For only the second time in Kiss's career, a title from their catalog has been put out print...but this time make that TWO titles! Both 1996's "You Wanted the Best, You Got the Best" and 1997's "Greatest Kiss" have been pulled off the U.S. market. The last time a Kiss album was put out of print was in 1988 when Polygram put "Music from the Elder" to rest, but that proved to be only temporary!

Exploring the history of the band through each album release. You'll be able to find out the logic behind the releases, what was going on in the band during the recording of albums, what the band was up to in the period leading up to studio time, and lots more information which should be of interest to the diehard fan!

Sound Off KISS Army
KISS ASYLUM wanted to open the door to other writers out there and give them a place where they can voice their opinions about KISS. We bet there are more than a few of you who have at least one KISS related topic burning in you that you'd love to write a one time piece about. Well, KISS ASYLUM is happy to bring to you a forum in which to do so in our new feature "SOUND OFF!" KISS ARMY.

KISS Thought Vault
The "Summertime Memories" Kiss Thought Vault finds Ron Albanese waxing nostalgic over summers past, by way of release dates and pinball. A certain starry-eyed little girl also secures her place in Vault history. Also mentioned: The Harlem Globetrotters.

KISS Video Spotlight
What I have in store for you is a real treat. What you are about to read is an interview I recently completed with WNEW DJ (and fellow NJ resident) Ed Trunk.
