KISS Unleashes 'Rock And Roll Over' Super-Deluxe Edition to Commemorate 50 Years of Rock Glory

Prepare yourselves, metalheads, because KISS is about to unleash a beast on November 6—an epic super-deluxe edition of their iconic fifth studio album, 'Rock And Roll Over', to celebrate its 50th anniversary. This monstrous box set is not just a reissue; it’s a 4CD and Blu-ray Audio experience that boasts a staggering 130 tracks, with a jaw-dropping 100 of them previously unheard! This is a vault raiding that every KISS fan has been waiting for.

The first CD features a newly remastered version of the original 1976 album mix, painstakingly mastered by none other than Bernie Grundman, the sonic wizard behind countless legendary records. Meanwhile, CD 2 presents a brand-new stereo mix by the original producer Eddie Kramer, who has worked his magic over the last five decades to breathe a fresh, modern energy into these classic tracks. But hold onto your leather jackets, because CD 3 is where things get juicy—22 unreleased demos, outtakes, and alternate mixes are finally seeing the light of day, including nine Gene Simmons gems and the elusive unfinished instrumental 'Queen For A Day'.

But that’s not all, folks. CD 4 takes us back to the legendary Nippon Budokan concerts of April 1977, featuring newly mixed selections from all four nights that KISS rocked Japan for the first time. Mixed from the original analog multi-track tapes, these recordings deliver the raw power of KISS’s live performance, captured by Eddie Kramer nearly half a century ago.

And for those who crave the ultimate audio experience, the Blu-ray Audio disc will serve up a feast of new Dolby Atmos and 5.1 surround mixes for both the original and the newly reimagined 2026 album mixes. With high-resolution audio formats on offer, you can expect to feel every thunderous riff and soaring vocal right down to your bones.

Fast forward to the band's recent return to the stage at 'KISS Kruise: Landlocked In Vegas', where they served up a raw acoustic set followed by their first unmasked electric concert in 30 years. The event featured a special appearance by ex-guitarist Bruce Kulick, proving that KISS's legacy continues to thrive even after their farewell tour.

The 2026 edition of 'KISS Kruise: Landlocked In Vegas' promises an expanded KISSperience with artist panels, meet-and-greets, and live performances, ensuring that even in the twilight of their career, KISS remains a force to be reckoned with. This is not just nostalgia; it’s a celebration of a band that has shaped the very fabric of rock and metal.
