Face the Music: A Life Exposed by Paul Stanley (Hardcover, 2014)

Face the Music: A Life Exposed by Paul Stanley (Hardcover, 2014)

In 1973 Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons co-founded KISS, adding Ace Frehley and Peter Criss to round out the 4-piece band that, in various incarnations, would go on to sell over 100 million albums, making them one of the world’s best-selling bands of all time.

Stanley’s standing as the lead-singer, front-man, primary song-writer, and long-time fan favourite makes this a must-read book for the legions of KISS fans and lovers of rock memoirs. For the first time Paul Stanley tells all, with just the right mix of personal revelations and gripping, gritty war stories about the highs and lows both inside and outside of KISS.

Born with a condition called microtia (missing one ear and rendering him deaf on the right side), Stanley’s traumatic childhood experiences within his family, matched with the social challenges of being visually deformed in the 50’s and 60’s, produced a drive to succeed in the most unlikely of places: music. Taking readers through the series of events that led up to the founding of KISS, his personal relationships including two marriages, and the turbulent dynamics with his band mates over the past 40 years, no one comes out unscathed - including Paul himself.

With both classic and never-before-seen photos and images that capture the iconic visuals that helped define KISS, this is a memoir that will immerse readers in the band Stanley helped to create and sustain through artfully-told stories that are shocking, funny, inspirational, and honest
