Power Play Magazine - Issue 220 / June 2019 (Featuring KISS)

From their first ever gig at The Coventry in Queens to playing the most spectacular shows in the world at the biggest venues on the planet, Kiss have achieved the kind of legendary status that only a handful of bands ever reach. Their latest trot across the globe, billed as The End Of The  Road Tour, will be their last. After catching their incredible new stage production in the States, Powerplay talked to Gene Simmons to find out what UK audiences can expect when Kiss arrive here in July. Offering up their fourth album, a much more upbeat and personal affair than the previous three, frontwoman Ash Costello from alt metallers New Years Day tells us why this is the right time to write music that is both heavier and poppier than before. Also this month, Royal Republic bring the disco rock vibe with their latest album, The Rods return with a new record, Guns N’ Roses, Loaded and Velvet Revolver man Duff McKagan shows his tender side, and Neal Morse shares his experiences from writing, recording and performing his latest rock opera. Plus we chat to Crazy Lixx, Soto, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Warrior Soul, DeWolff, 3Teeth, JoanOvArc, Erja Lyytinen, The Wildhearts, Rebecca Downes, Diviner, Teramaze, X-Romance, Hollis Brown, Per Wilberg, Xentrix and Sabbath Assembly.
