Editorial Review:

Album Description:
FOUR IMMEDIATELY RECOGNIZABLE PERSONAS.FOUR SUPERMEN, WHO COMPRISE ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS AND FLAMBOYANT BANDS ON THE PLANET. KISS: IKONS IS A 4-CD, 56-TRACK COLLECTOR'S PACKAGE CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF THE FOUR MOST IKONIC FIGURES IN ROCK 'N' ROLL.

Each disc highlights an "ikonic" character, spotlighting each founding member and their musical contributions to KISS by way of the songs they sang for this legendary band.

Album Description:
56 tracks over 4 CD set. Almost half of the tracks have never appeared on a KISS music compilation before. No other band can (or has attempted to) showcase the 4 separate discs like KISS can: not only can they play their own instruments with fierce intensity, but they can each stand in the spotlight, in front of a microphone and sing. Deluxe packaging includes new liner notes by longtime KISS fans and collectors Curt Gooch and Jeff Suhs, silver metallic foil of the IKONS images on o-card with glossy finish, a 24-page booklet, and new 10 panel softpak. IKONS is a project conceived by a fan for all the KISS fans!

- Where is the Eric Singer And Tommy Thayer Disc? That must be on Icons II
Good track listing, Could have squeezed more songs on each volume. I guess Gene and Paul weren't considered Icons after 1980 according to this set. maybe the second set could have Tommy and Eric covering all Ace and Peter tunes. Save your money(Gene and Paul Don't need it!they're too buzy playing in a KISS KOVER BAND) and make your own mix it will be better!

- KISS Is NOT Putting This Stuff Out!!!
I love the concept behind this package, it really shows just how talented the entire band was. You get to taste the flavor of each member of Kiss in a way we have not gotten to before. Now, for those who are mad that KISS keeps putting out the same songs, they are NOT! It's the record company, KISS has NOTHING to do with any of this...but we fans buy the stuff no matter what and the record company can add to their bottom line via our money. But fret not, KISS is going back into the studio this next year!!!

- Finally
This is the first collection that reaches deep and give equal treatment to the talents of all of the original players. Their individual contributions made this band a great band. Yes, Domino is another great Gene tune that came out after the original years and is a classic, but this collection is original and has original materials on it that you will not find on any other compilation. Packaging and music is all first rate. Forget the complainers that dog this band for being successful. I never owned the Peter Criss solo and now I have all of the best parts. Find out what is lost with Ace and Peter gone from the band. There is a reason that teens still listen to Kiss. This is it.

Good fun.

- All old material, as usual
I've got every one of Kiss' studio albums/CDs in MP3 format. I saved myself X amount of $$$ by picking the individual songs from the CDs and compiling my own Kiss Ikons MP3s. Why pay for something I already have.

- No ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME for these guys!!
KISS has become such a bad joke over the years - re-releasing the same old songs over and over and over!
It reasons like this - KISS DOES NOT belong in the ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME - EVER!
Gene and Paul never had one bad word to say about the RRHOF - only until their joke of a band became eligible - and found out they were not going to be let in - suddenly they started trash talking the RRHOF - sounds like sour grapes to me!
This band is not capable of putting out new material - because they no longer have it in them to write good songs anymore, explains the reason why it has been over 10+ years since a studio album!
It's a shame the keep ripping off the fans with the same old music - maybe this explains why they will NEVER get into the RRHOF, and why they have NEVER in their 35+ year career - made the cover of Rolling Stone magazine!
Four old overweight men pushing 60 years old - still wearing make-up, wigs, spandex and high heels! It doesn't get any sadder ... Read More
