Legendary rockers Kiss sold their catalog, brand name and IP to Swedish company Pophouse Entertainment Group in a deal estimated to be over $300 million, it was announced Thursday.

This isn’t the first time the band has partnered with Pophouse, which was co-founded by ABBA’s Björn Ulvaeus.

Seems like a good deal for Ulvaeus.....Bowie sold his for 900 million around 20 years ago.

I guess they said, fuck it, it's time to stop playing dress up and get paid.....It ain't a crime to be good to yourself.

Surprised they're all still alive. KISS is great compared to today's music.

They always struck me as just a decent Garage Band music wise....They did well with it so who am I to judge.

Maybe it was the lead pipe water.

This is better than "garage band". The lyrics are like limburger cheese, but OK.

Keep in mind this was in disco days, so this kinda bridges the gap between disco and...KISS.



Holy Falsettos, Barman!

I wanna rock and roll all night and be a dancing queen every day.

So now we can expect Dr. Love playing as the background music for Cialis commercials featuring geriatrics.

Neil Young sold his for over $400 million, and he included conditions, like it can't be used for advertising, and Trump rallies, and so on.

This late in life a lot of these rockers have more money than they know what to do with.
