KISS - The Second Coming (1998)
DVD9

Kiss is an American rock band formed in New York City in January 1973. Well known for its members' black and
white face paint and flamboyant 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.
Counting the 1978 solo albums, Kiss has been awarded 28 gold albums to
date, the most of any American rock band. The band has sold more than 40
million albums in the United States, of which 20 million have been
certified by the RIAA and their worldwide sales exceeds 100 million
records, making them one of the world’s best-selling bands of all time.
The original 1973–80 lineup consisted of Paul Stanley (vocals and rhythm
guitar), Gene Simmons (vocals and bass guitar), Ace Frehley (lead
guitar and vocals) and Peter Criss (drums and vocals).

With their makeup and costumes, they took on the personas of comic
book-style characters: Starchild (Stanley), The Demon (Simmons),
Spaceman or Space Ace (Frehley) and Catman (Criss). Stanley became the
"Starchild" because of his tendency to be referred to as the
"starry-eyed lover" and "hopeless romantic". The "Demon" makeup
reflected Simmons' cynicism and dark sense of humor, as well as his
affection for comic books. Frehley's "Spaceman" makeup was a reflection
of his fondness for science fiction and his supposedly being from
another planet. Criss' "Catman" makeup was in accordance with the belief
that he had nine lives because of his rough childhood in Brooklyn. Due
to creative differences, both Criss and Frehley were out of the group by
1982. The band's commercial fortunes had waned considerably by that
point.

Buoyed by a wave of Kiss nostalgia in the 1990s, the band announced a
reunion of the original lineup in 1996. The resulting Kiss
Alive/Worldwide/Reunion Tour was the top-grossing act of 1996 and 1997.
Criss and Frehley have since left Kiss again, but the band continues
with Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer. Stanley and Simmons have remained the
only two constant members. Kiss has been named in many "Top" lists.
They include Number 10 on VH1's '100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock', 9th
on 'The Greatest Metal Bands' list by MTV, number one on Hit Paraders's
"Top 100 Live Bands", 56th on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists Of All Time",
and 26th on Gibson's "50 Greatest American Rock Bands".The band is set
to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014, nearly 15
years after becoming eligible.

The film covers all events from the creative life of the band Kiss in
the period 1996-1997. Why are there only! And the very first rehearsal
garage just musicians gathered again, and the first twenty years of
putting on makeup and costumes Gene home, and all sorts of backstage
footage before, after, and during concerts worldwide. In general, all
the real fans will be happy with just such an abundance of rare
chronicle.
