KISS To Invade Your Kitchen And Bathroom! - June 1, 2006
Look out, KISS is about to invade your kitchen and bathroom! KISS licensee California Gold has just released nine new KISS ceramic wall tiles featuring all of the classic KISS album covers of the '70s. Each 6" x 6" ceramic tile features a great quality full-color KISS cover. These new tiles follow the "Alive II" and the solo tiles that were released last year. Check out a collage of the KISS tiles at this location.

In related news, Célébrités Galleries in Maui, Hawaii will host another Paul Stanley art show on June 14. More information is available at www.celebrityfineart.com.

Its somehow not as embarassing as the Psycho Circus album/tour, the toilet paper, or Crazy Nights...

Unbelievable. Ceramic wall tiles- just what the world needs!

I'll say it again- the only product you will NEVER see the KI$$ name on is new music, because they've ceased being a band and have focused themselves on marketing cheap, cheesy crap to a gullible public.

But that's just the way Greed Simmons, the greediest, rudest, most arrogant cock in the music biz wants it!

this has gotten out of hand. I'm trying to figure out what they'll come out with next...I'm guessing power tools. Clean the side of your house with the new KISS preasure washer. Or maybe build the back deck you've always wanted with a KISS circular saw.

Bathroom tiles are appropriate, since they went down the toilet years ago.

Kitchen tiles are appropriate too, since their credibility went down the garbage disposal.

by no means do i consider myself a guru of interior design, but come on, this is just flat out tacky. Granted, I'm sure there are people out there who will actually decorate their bathrooms/kitchens/trailers with this stuff, just as the Jerry Springer show never seems to be at a loss for guests.

Listen, I'm all for having a "guy's room", such as a basement bar decorated with music and sports stuff, but this is ridiculous. Still, I can't blame Kiss. If there are idiots out there who want to buy this shit (and there obviously are), then more power to them. Just like PT Barnum (that would be the circus guy, folks) said, "there's a sucker born every minute".

Hell, if some hillbilly (and yes, anyone who decorates their kitches with this shit is a hillbilly) wanted to buy wallpaper with my face on it, why not sell it to him?

If Gene would put out toilet paper with his face on each sheet, I'd buy it. It'd be a pleasure to wipe my ass with his face.

I saw them twice on that tour. Eric played his solo on the second leg of it. The sphinx, the setlist, the musicianship - just an incredible tour, as was the Revenge tour, BTW. Gene pulled the firebreathing back out for that one. And the strippers on "Take It Off"... good stuff.

"Decorative tiles can go for upwards of $4.50 a piece. Even if they were spaced out, wouldn't it be about $300 Just for the Kiss tiles to redo your bathroom? "

The only Kiss tiles I could find were the solo album faces here:
http://kissmuseum.com/SearchResult.aspx?KeyWords=tiles
Those tiles are $14.95 EACH, so for what you are talking about, you are looking at probably $1,000 to do your bathroom, after shipping. Personally, I'd just do a single row of them a couple of feet down from the ceiling.

I find it odd that KI$$ is being licensed to death now that they are way (and I mean *way*, like 32 years) past their prime. Is there really such a huge market for this stuff. Even the fans of old who couldn't afford this stuff back in the 70s are now so much beyond buying that kind of thing.
I also think it's weird that "Double Platinum" in on those tiles. That was a 'best of' compilation.

COUGH!KITCH!!COUGH!

bathroom tiles and all merch is far more interesting for every old KISS fan (now pushing 40) as memoribilia or nostalgia.

Kiss was always at least as much about their larger than life image etc etc, the music is just a bonus.


Couldn't we all just agree to totally ignore and NOT post any comments here when Gene has some fucked up "news" here. He's just playing us, can't you see that?
