Dear KISS family,
Last Thursday March 13th, 2025 the new KISS website was launched under the same domain but completely refurbished:
KISS (Pophouse) has made a complete re-design of the website. Why? Because the old website was not functioning properly. The backend was outdated and many features simply could not be fixed without a total do-over. It’s also because Pophouse wants to bring KISS into the future, and part of that is working through all the different interactions fans have with KISS, website being one of them. Right now, the functionality is kept as simple as possible – with focus on simplifying the design, emphasizing the music and the music videos and making a serious facelift to the KISS Army. Going forward, Pophouse is committed to continuously improving the fan experience and solidifying Kissonline as the definitive destination for everything KISS.
The army has lost its relevance in the fan community over the past years, especially without KISS being on tour. Pophouse wants to ensure that it is not lost to history, but an active and thriving community where KISS fans can find belonging. We want to make the KISS Army the go-to community for all things KISS. To be specific – We have made a huge back-end job to clean up the technical systems that run the army, and made some initial improvements and adjustments to the structure of it:
The fan club will consist of two tiers – the free tier, which you automatically join if you sign up to the newsletter. As a free tier fan, you will receive the latest news, you will be able to participate in competitions, and partake in some amazing activities that will happen in the near and distant future.
The VIP tier has received some extra treatment to ensure that the fan community feel like they’re getting value for their money. As such, we have added a cool new artefacts to the welcome kit (first off will be the KISS Army 50th poster, next year something different), we will introduce partnership deals, begin to let fans in to more content from the vault. VIPs will get first access to new merchandise (for 24h) and occasionally merch that is only available to the VIPs, as a service to the fans, as well as pre-access to any kind of fan event that may occur in the future.
