Paul Stanley solo album....about fkn time!!!



The album should be done and ready to mix by mid May. Drumming on all the
tracks to date is Victor Indruzzo who has toured and recorded with Macy
Gray, toured with Beck and appears on various recordings by the Matrix
production team. Most of the guitars have been handled by Corky James who
also is heard on various recordings by the Matrix team including Avril
Lavigne. In talking about their contributions Paul raved, "Victor is just
an amazing drummer who can bash with the best of them while keeping a great
groove going." As for James, he added "Corky just blows me away with his
parts and sounds." As far as bass..."I've always been a big fan of Bruce
Kulick's bass playing so it's great to have him on some of the album."
Keyboards have been handled by Russ Irwin who has toured with both Sting
and Aerosmith. "I've known Russ for over 15 years before the KISS/Aerosmith
tour happened and his being a part of the project seemed like a natural".Of
course all the vocals are handled by Paul.

A few of the tracks recorded include "Wake Up Screaming," "Second To None"
and "Live To Win."

Paul has been collaborating with Andreas Carlsson and for the first time in
15 or so years, Desmond Child and said, "It's magic." Paul went on to add,
"From the songs to the playing and singing, everything about this album is
consistent without compromise. The album is exactly who I am now and what I
want to be doing. It's got all the sides of what I do, so it's not
surprising that it's got elements of everything I've done plus a leap into
the 21st century. I don't need to hype it. I'll leave that to everyone else
who's heard it."
