Send us Fan Mail Pitbull Meets KISS?! Landlocked Food Credits & Avatar Madness! PITBULL MEETS KISS?! KISS KRUZE FOOD CREDITS & AVATAR MADNESS! Just when you think the KISS World couldn't get any stranger...MR. WORLDWIDE enters the picture! On this edition of Hooligan Nation: A KISS-Centric Podcast — As the KISS-World Turns, Anthony, Father Rocco, Black Diamond Dave and DD-Deb dive into three very different topics that have the KISS Army talking! 🔥 PITBULL MEETS KISS — REACH FOR THE STARS! Yes, you read that correctly! Pitbull and KISS have joined forces on a new song called "Reach for the Stars," which puts a completely different spin on the legendary KISS anthem "Rock and Roll All Nite." The song appears on Pitbull's new album, PITCOIN, and brings together two musical worlds that most KISS fans probably never imagined would collide. But is this a brilliant way to introduce KISS to a new generation of listeners? Or is it another example of taking a classic rock anthem somewhere it was never meant to go? The Hooligans break down the unlikely musical combination and give their opinions on whether Mr. Worldwide and the Hottest Band in the World actually belong together! 🔥 KISS KRUZE LANDLOCKED 2026 — WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THE FOOD CREDITS? Next, we're heading back to Las Vegas! With KISS Kruize Landlocked 2026 approaching, there's another subject for the Hooligans to sink their teeth into... FOOD CREDITS! We're discussing the food credit arrangements associated with the upcoming KISS Kruize Landlocked experience and what they mean for fans attending the event. Are they a worthwhile benefit? Are fans getting a good deal? And how do these credits factor into the overall cost of attending a major KISS event in Las Vegas? You know the Hooligans will have plenty of opinions! 🔥 KISS AVATARS — LET'S TALK! And finally, we're diving into a little avatar talk! The future of KISS continues to be a fascinating subject, especially with the band's plans to extend its legacy beyond traditional live performances. From digital technology and virtual performances to the possibility of experiencing KISS in an entirely new way, the Hooligans discuss the idea of avatars and what they could mean for the future of the band. Can technology recreate the excitement of a real KISS concert? Would you pay to see an avatar-based KISS show? And is this the future of rock and roll...or something completely different? THREE TOPICS. FOUR HOOLIGANS. AND PLENTY OF OPINIONS! 🤘 HOOLIGANG — WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! 🎸 What do you think of Pitbull and KISS's "Reach for the Stars"? 💰 What's your opinion of the KISS Kruize Landlocked food credits? 🤖 Would you pay to see a KISS avatar concert?

Send us Fan Mail As the KISS-World Turns: Stanley Simmons Live Review & KISS Kruize Landlocked Pre-Party Sellout STANLEY SIMMONS LIVE! KISS KRUZE PRE-PARTY SOLD OUT?! The KISS World NEVER stops turning — and this week we've got firsthand concert reviews, ticket price debates and another KISS Kruize controversy! On this edition of The Hooligan Nation: A KISS-Centric Podcast — As the KISS-World Turns, Anthony, Father Rocco, Black Diamond Dave and DD-Deb tackle two major stories making waves throughout the KISS Army! 🔥 STANLEY SIMMONS — THE HOOLIGANS WERE THERE! Anthony and Father Rocco recently attended a live performance by Stanley Simmons, the musical collaboration featuring Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons, sons of KISS legends Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons. And now it's time for their firsthand review! We've heard the music. We've seen the interviews. We've watched Evan and Nick step out from behind their famous fathers' shadows. But what happens when Stanley Simmons takes the stage? Anthony and Father Rocco break down their concert experience and give the Hooligang their personal opinions on the performance. 🎸 How did Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons sound live? 🎸 What was the chemistry between the two performers? 🎸 Did their personalities come through onstage? 🎸 How did the live experience compare with their recorded music? 🎸 And most importantly — would Anthony and Father Rocco go see Stanley Simmons again? No secondhand opinions here. The Hooligans were in the building! 🔥 KISS KRUZE LANDLOCKED 2026 — THE PRE-PARTY PRICE DEBATE! Then we're heading to Las Vegas! The highly anticipated KISS Kruize Landlocked 2026 continues generating excitement among KISS fans, and the latest news surrounding the pre-party has given the Hooligans plenty to discuss. The pre-party ticket prices have become a major talking point, and the event reportedly sold out almost immediately! So naturally, we have some questions. 💰 Were the ticket prices reasonable? 💰 Is the experience worth the asking price? 💰 Does selling out so quickly prove that KISS fans are willing to pay almost anything for a special event? 💰 Should organizers have anticipated the overwhelming demand? 💰 Are exclusive KISS events becoming too expensive for the average fan? And perhaps the biggest question of all... If the event sold out almost immediately, were the prices actually TOO LOW? The Hooligans examine both sides of the argument, from the excitement surrounding the event to the growing cost of being a dedicated KISS fan. Because when it comes to KISS, the music may bring us together... BUT THE PRICES CAN CERTAINLY START AN ARGUMENT! 🔥 HOOLIGANG — WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Have you seen Stanley Simmons live? What did you think? Did you manage to get tickets to the KISS Kruize Landlocked pre-party? And do you think the prices were fair, too expensive or exactly what the market was willing to pay?

And here's where things get interesting… One Hooligan's musical disaster might be another Hooligan's favorite song! Which KISS songs should have NEVER made it onto an album? Which songs have us reaching for the SKIP button? Are there songs from the classic makeup era that deserve to be on these lists? Did KISS release some real stinkers during the '80s and '90s?

Send us Fan Mail "As The KISS-World Turns"-Gene Simmons Gets Candid + Scot Coogan CONTROVERSY & Stanley Simmons Unfiltered! 🔥 GENE SIMMONS ON LISA GUERRERO UNLEASHED Gene Simmons recently joined award-winning journalist Lisa Guerrero for a wide-ranging conversation touching on KISS, life, technology, artificial intelligence and plenty more. As always, when Gene gets a microphone in front of him, there is no shortage of opinions. The Hooligans break down what Gene had to say and discuss the latest chapter in a string of revealing long-form interviews from The Demon. 🔥 SCOT COOGAN & STEFAN ADIKA Then things get a little hotter. Former Ace Frehley drummer Scot Coogan recently sat down with Stefan Adika for an extensive conversation involving Ace Frehley, his former bandmates and the world surrounding the late KISS guitarist. Some of Coogan's comments have generated controversy — and naturally, the Hooligans have some thoughts of their own. What was said? Was it fair? Did anything cross the line? And what happens when disagreements between musicians who shared the stage with Ace become public? We're diving into it. 🔥 EVAN STANLEY & NICK SIMMONS LET THEIR PERSONALITIES OUT Finally, we head over to Bert Kreischer's Something's Burning, where Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons joined Bert for a conversation that gave KISS fans a much better look at the two men behind Stanley Simmons. And THIS might be our favorite part of the episode. Forget being Paul Stanley's son and Gene Simmons' son for a minute. Who are Evan and Nick? The guys talk about growing up with two of the most recognizable rock stars on the planet, being labeled "nepo babies," dealing with KISS fans, their fathers' enormous personalities, making their own music and trying to establish an identity of their own. And when Evan and Nick are allowed to relax, joke around and simply be themselves, their individual personalities really start coming through. The Hooligans discuss whether appearances like this could be exactly what Stanley Simmons needs as the band continues establishing itself outside the enormous shadow of KISS. Three podcasts. Three VERY different conversations. And one KISS World that absolutely refuses to stop turning! 🤘 HOOLIGANG — WE WANT YOUR OPINION! What did you think of Gene's conversation with Lisa Guerrero? What was your reaction to Scot Coogan's comments? And after seeing Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons with Bert Kreischer, are you starting to get a better feel for who these guys really are?

Send us Fan Mail What If KISS Made Double Platinum II? The Hooligans Build the Ultimate Sequel!    The original Double Platinum became one of the most recognizable compilation albums in the KISS catalog, bringing together some of the band's essential songs from the first chapter of their career. But KISS wasn't finished. Not even close. So Anthony, Father Rocco, Black Diamond Dave and DD-Deb are taking on a simple question that could potentially start a war inside the KISS Army: 🔥 WHAT SHOULD BE ON DOUBLE PLATINUM II? The Hooligans create our own sequel to Double Platinum and attempt to build the ultimate KISS compilation from the music that came AFTER the original album. Which songs are automatic selections? Which eras deserve the most representation? Do we load the album with hits or make room for fan-favorite deep cuts? Which songs get left behind? And most importantly… CAN FOUR HOOLIGANS ACTUALLY AGREE ON A TRACK LIST? Yeah. Good luck with that. We debate the songs, defend our choices and create the KISS compilation album that never existed: ⚡ DOUBLE PLATINUM II — THE SEQUEL! ⚡ PLUS — we've got the latest Music News, the Music We're Listening To, and another Hooligan Nation Weekly Poll. 👇 HOOLIGANG — NOW IT'S YOUR TURN!

Send us Fan Mail As the KISS-World Turns: Ranking Our Top 5 KISS Live Albums You wanted the best...but which KISS live albums actually ARE the best? On this edition of Hooligan Nation: A KISS-Centric Podcast — As the KISS-World Turns, Anthony, Father Rocco, Black Diamond Dave and DD-Deb dive into one of the most important parts of the entire KISS catalog: THE LIVE ALBUMS! For KISS, the live album isn't just another entry in the discography. It's part of the band's DNA. In 1975, KISS ALIVE! helped transform KISS from a struggling touring band into one of the biggest acts in rock. From there came Alive II, Alive III, KISS Unplugged, You Wanted the Best, You Got the Best!!, KISS Symphony: Alive IV, Alive! The Millennium Concert, the Off the Soundboard series and numerous archival concert releases. But which ones are actually the BEST? This week, each Hooligan has been given one mission: 🔥 Pick your TOP 5 KISS LIVE ALBUMS! And knowing Anthony, Father Rocco, Black Diamond Dave and DD-Deb... There is absolutely NO WAY we're all going to agree. We're talking classic-era KISS. We're talking makeup and non-makeup KISS. We're talking the original lineup, different eras, different setlists, different production styles and some live releases that may be a whole lot more controversial than others. We'll discuss what makes a great KISS live album, which releases best capture the excitement of seeing KISS in concert and which albums we find ourselves going back to again and again. And then everybody reveals their individual TOP 5! Will the legendary ALIVE! automatically take the top spot? Does Alive II capture KISS at the absolute height of KISSmania? Does Alive III deserve more respect? Should KISS Unplugged be considered alongside the traditional electric live albums? Where do releases such as KISS Symphony: Alive IV and the Off the Soundboard series belong? And could somebody actually leave one of the legendary Alive! albums completely OUT of their Top 5? Nothing is guaranteed when the Hooligans start making lists! 🎤 HOOLIGANG — NOW IT'S YOUR TURN! We don't just want your #1. Give us YOUR Top 5 KISS live albums in order! Drop your list in the comments and tell us which KISS live album you think deserves more love. And if one of the Hooligans' rankings is completely INSANE...

Send us Fan Mail As the KISS-World Turns: KISS Announces Rock And Roll Over 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Box Set KISS is opening the vault again — and this one is HUGE! On this edition of Hooligan Nation: A KISS-Centric Podcast — As the KISS-World Turns, Anthony, Father Rocco, Black Diamond Dave and DD-Deb break down the newly announced KISS Rock And Roll Over 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition, arriving November 6, 2026. One of the most beloved albums in the KISS catalog is getting the full Super Deluxe treatment — and there is A LOT for the KISS Army to talk about. The massive collection features 130 total tracks, including 100 previously unreleased tracks and mixes, beginning with the classic 1976 album newly remastered from the original stereo analog tapes. But that's only the beginning. Original Rock And Roll Over producer and engineer Eddie Kramer has returned to create an entirely new 2026 stereo mix of the album from the original analog multitrack tapes. We're also getting 22 unreleased demos, alternate mixes and outtakes, including nine Gene Simmons demos, Paul Stanley's "I Want Love" demo, extended versions, Davlen Sound Studios demos and the long-discussed unfinished instrumental "Queen For A Day." And then there's LIVE KISS! The collection reaches back to KISS's historic first trip to Japan in 1977, featuring newly mixed performances recorded at the legendary Nippon Budokan in Tokyo. The Blu-ray takes things even further with the original album and Eddie Kramer's new 2026 mix presented in Dolby Atmos, 5.1 surround and high-resolution audio. And because this is KISS, you know there are KOLLECTIBLES! A 104-page hardcover book, rare photographs, press materials, posters, trading cards, guitar picks, ticket reproductions, coasters, stickers, a stage magnet sheet, newspaper and plenty more are packed into the Super Deluxe editions. So naturally, the Hooligans have some questions... 🔥 Is this the Rock And Roll Over box set KISS fans have been waiting for? 🔥 What do we think about Eddie Kramer remixing his own classic album 50 years later? 🔥 Which demos and unreleased tracks are we most excited to hear? 🔥 How important is the unreleased 1977 Japan material? 🔥 Does all the memorabilia make the Super Deluxe edition more desirable — or is it the MUSIC that really matters? 🔥 And the biggest question of all: ARE WE BUYING IT? Released November 11, 1976, Rock And Roll Over gave us KISS classics including "Calling Dr. Love," "Hard Luck Woman," "I Want You," "Mr. Speed," "Makin' Love" and more. Now, 50 years later, KISS is going back inside the album that followed Destroyer and captured the raw, stripped-down power of the original lineup of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss. Join the Hooligans as we break down the announcement, the music, the extras and whether this massive release deserves a place in your KISS Kollection! This is Hooligan Nation: A KISS-Centric Podcast... AS THE KISS-WORLD TURNS! 👇 HOOLIGANG — WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Are you buying the Rock And Roll Over 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition?
