Kiss | FESTIVALPHOTO
| Kiss Kiss is an American hard rock band formed in New York City in January 1973 by Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons. Well known for its members' face paint and stage outfits, the group rose to prominence in the mid to late 1970s with their elaborate live performances, which featured fire breathing, blood spitting, smoking guitars, shooting rockets, levitating drum kits and pyrotechnics. Before arriving at their current lineup, the band went through some lineup changes, with Stanley and Simmons the last two members of the original lineup of the band. At the dawn of the 70s, when both the Nike swoosh and Apple insignia were still on the drawing board, four determind young men – guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley, vocalist/bassist Gene Simmons, guitarist Ace Frehley and drummer/vocalist Peter Criss – were buissy designing a monolithic logo of their own. Consisting of four strong capital letters colored in shades of metallic silver or combustible orange, the powerful, instantly recognizable KISS emblem would eventually become ubiquitous worldwide. But unlike the Nike and Apple logos, carefully designed to appeal to jocks and nerds respectively, the KISS logo was created for anyone who wanted to rock and roll all night and party every day – meaning every single freaking person on the planet. Four musicians with painted faces and platform shoes rose from the streets of New York to create one of rock & roll's biggest bands - and brands. More info: http://www.kissonline.com/
