Synopsis
Gene Simmons is perhaps best known as the guy with the really long tongue in Kiss, one of the most successful rock groups in the world--he's also the band's lead singer and bassist. KISS AND MAKE-UP is his one-sided yet consistently entertaining view of the glam-rock outfit's rise, fall, and resurrection via stack-heeled boots, spandex, and gallons of face paint. Simmons has an ego to match his aforementioned outsized tongue. He candidly admits that Kiss's main objectives were money, sex, and fame (he claims to have slept with over 4,600 women), and to be bigger than the Beatles. Though they come close to achieving their goals, throughout Simmons' narrative Kiss never seem to be more than business partners. The bassist has particularly little time for drummer Peter Criss and guitarist Ace Frehley, whom he characterizes as a pair of drug-addled losers, though fellow band founder Paul Stanley comes off relatively unscathed. With its fair share of sexy interludes and superstar absurdity (at one point Criss crashes his sports car while it's still in the garage), KISS AND MAKE-UP is unapologetically rock & roll business as usual.

Publisher's Note
The co-founder of the rock group KISS shares his candid, uncensored, and outrageous reminiscences about growing up as an immigrant kid from Israel, his creation of one of the world's most popular bands, and three decades of life and fame in the world of rock music.

Industry Reviews
"[W]hile little in this book will shock readers who know anything about the band whose painted faces have graced many a third grader's lunch box, they may be surprised by Simmons's clarity and candor."
New York Times Book Review - Amy Reiter (01/27/2002)
