It’s probably about time.

KISS members Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley are collaborating on a memoir that will detail the band’s early years, between 1973-1975.

The memoir Nothin’ To Lose will also be written along with rock journalist Ken Sharp and will go through the band’s experience through the release of their breakout album Alive! that included their hit Rock and Roll All Night.

The book will also feature interviews with bandmates Peter Criss and Ace Frehl as well as other rockers from the ’70s era.

IT Books Editor Denise Oswald spoke about the book’s release:

“KISS is one of the most beloved and influential hard rock bands of the last forty years. What is particularly fascinating about this project is about how the band got off the ground, how they came up with the concept of who they were that so defined them and captured the love and imagination of all of their fans. It’s also an amazing depiction of New York in the early seventies–its Manhattan, its Queens, you have members of The Ramones, members of Blue Oyster Cult, touring with and playing with Kiss. You really get this incredible portrait of a time.”

With so many wild stories about KISS’ early years, we can imagine that the book should get pret-ty inneresting.
