Martin Popoff dives deep into Kiss’s explosive 1976 in ‘Kiss ’76 Twelve Months That Defined The Hottest Band In The Land,’ out now in hardcover. The book tracks the band month by month as Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Ace Frehley, and Peter Criss barnstorm the globe, release ‘Destroyer’ and ‘Rock and Roll Over’ within eight months, and cement their status as arena-conquering icons. Packed with album analyses, tour dates, rare interviews with Ace Frehley and producer Bob Ezrin, and richly illustrated memorabilia, the volume captures the year Kiss truly became the hottest band in the land.
