PETERS BRINGS BACK ICONIC 80’S ICE BLOCK TO MAKE KISSTORY!



‘Lick It Up’ with legendary rockers KISS during their upcoming Monster Tour in Australia

Iconic Australian ice cream brand, Peters, has joined forces with legendary rock giants KISS to make their upcoming Monster Tour even sweeter by bringing back the famous Peters KISS ‘Thunderbolt’ ice block.

In February 2013, Peters will re-launch their widely popular 1980s KISS ‘Thunderbolt’ ice block to coincide with KISS’s Monster Tour in Australia celebrating their 40th Anniversary. Peters and KISS will be encouraging KISS fans to ‘Lick It Up’ while stocks last* and rock out at a concert in their local city.

Alicia Munday, Peters Marketing Manager, said, “The original KISS ice block was such a hit when it first launched that we knew we had to bring it back at some stage. When KISS announced that they were starting their global KISS Monster Tour in Australia we knew we had to make it happen.

“We know the comeback of this ice block will conjure up a sense of nostalgia and excitement for new and old fans and expect the Peters KISS ‘Thunderbolt’ to be a sellout success,” added Munday.

KISS front man, Paul Stanley, is excited by the partnership and can’t wait to ‘Lick It Up’ Down Under. “Getting a chance to revisit our first time here through this awesome Aussie project gives us a taste of KISSTERIA and all that made us a phenomenon back then.” he said.

Gene Simmons, KISS bassist and co-founder, admits-- “I still have 12 original boxes of the ice blocks from the 1980s."

The Peters KISS ‘Thunderbolt’ ice block is a triple threat of three flavours that will take you straight back to childhood – lemonade, raspberry and cola.

The Peters KISS ‘Thunderbolt’ ice block will be one of the first products to be released under Peters’ new Australian ownership and part of a renewed commitment to creating products that Australians want.

*The Peters KISS ‘Thunderbolt’ ice block is available exclusively in Caltex outlets from Wednesday, 6 February and Coles supermarkets from Wednesday, 13 February until sold out.

We've been a couple for many years and thought it was about time we make a baby…well, a Rock' n Roll, baby to be exact!

Of course every couple wants their wedding to be awesome and memorable. And we couldn't have imagined ours to be more perfect.

Traditional ceremonies are fine, but let others do them. We wanted to get married short and sweet with a big bang and make everybody feel like rock stars. And damn did we - with the help of the phenomenal team of the Hotter Than Hell Wedding Chapel. Big thanks to all!

From beginning till end it was all one big rush of excitement and joy. The crowd was cheering, our Mini-ster did an amazing job, and when our maid of honor pulled the shotgun and revealed that Nikki is pregnant the masses went berserk. So, so, so much fun!

We're feeling so fortunate that we shared this with our friends.

Monster is the best KISS album in decades. A ballsy, big 'n' brash, in your face, high energy, bona fide rock and roll record. No sign of theatrics, melodic thrash, power ballads or bubble-gum glam.

BY Ross Muir

In 2009 KISS did what a number of classic rock acts had just done, were about to do or continue to do – re-invent themselves for the resurgence in hard and melodic rock by recording an album that emulates the sound and style of the band from their classic or most successful era.

In the case of KISS that album was Sonic Boom and, while it was a predictable success for the band and unarguably had the sound, it didn’t have the songs.

’Modern Day Delilah’ was an instant Kiss Klassic and ‘Say Yeah’ was geared to be a strong live number, but as an album Sonic Boom was never going to send Love Gun or Destroyer to the back of the queue.

Monster however is a different story, but based on a similar plot-line…

Founder members and purveyors of the KISS brand, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, wanted a musical successor to Sonic Boom but with even more attention to classic song and classic sound detail. In production terms? Take a holiday Mr Digital and come right in, Mr Analog.

Here's a Tommy Thayer interview with Gibson Guitars at NAMM 2013.
