\"Sonic Boom Over Europe\" will see dates in more than fifteen countries and, not only will the tour feature Kiss’s first UK arena shows in eleven years, but it will see the band breaking new ground completely with their first ever shows in Slovakia.

Lead singer Paul Stanley says:

\"Our current \"Kiss Alive 35 Tour\" was just the start. \"Sonic Boom Over Europe\" leaves that show in the dust. New stage, new setlist, new outfits, new album! We\'re covering the whole musical history of the band on a stage that takes Kiss one giant step further in our eight inch heels!\"

Bassist Gene Simmons adds:

\"Now. More than Ever. Kiss is a four wheel drive monster truck. Our mission? To rock Planet Earth. To spread the gospel of Sonic Boom.\"

With over 80 million album sales worldwide, Kiss remain one of the most iconic and influential rock bands of all time. Throughout their 35 year career Kiss have established themselves as one of the great live rock bands. Kiss was named by VH1 as 10th on their list of the \'100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock\'.

On September 23, 2009, Kiss was nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their latest release, \'Sonic Boom\', is the highest charting album of Kiss’ career in the USA.
