Now all we need is a KISS coffee table!

WHEN Nicholas Buckland picked up a secondhand cassette of KISS compilation Double Platinum at a school fete as a child, he had no inkling it would be the beginning of a lifelong obsession with the band.

It was the one album that didn’t feature an image of the band on the cover, but he soon learned of their larger-than-life image and the massive merchandising machine behind them.

“I grew up collecting toys such as Masters of the Universe,” Buckland recalls.

“So to find a band that were part musicians, part superheroes was a huge attraction!”

And the memorabilia was a big part of it, leading to Buckland chronicling decades of merchandising online.

He has been running the EverythingKISS website and social channels since 2007, amassing nearly 23,000 followers on Facebook, 8000 on Instagram and 4000 on Twitter (including KISS co-founder Gene Simmons).

“KISS brought out so much product I wanted a place that would catalogue it all,” Buckland said.

KISS Army - JR Smalling Cancer Drive: Let's Help!

 

J.R. Smalling was KISS's original road manager from January 1974 through June 1976, his voice graces the opening seconds of KISS's 1975 landmark breakthrough album ALIVE! with the very intro he invented, the band's now famous "You wanted the best and you got it.  The hottest band in the land...KISS!"
 
In 2018, J.R. was diagnosed with metastatic bone cancer.  The prognosis for patients is sadly only six months to four years.  Fortunately, J.R. was able to find a medical team who hit upon an aggressive treatment recipe that has halted the disease in its tracks and his prognosis is now unlimited as long as he can continue treatment.
 
Understandably, the medication and associated costs are very expensive.  The donations received from this fund will go directly to J.R.'s ongoing treatment and will help J.R. and his family immeasurably.
