Sonic Boom is the 19th studio album and the first in 11 years from rock band Kiss, released on October 6, 2009. Guitarist, Bruce Kulick had left in 1996 and went on to form Union. He was replaced by Ace Frehley, who left again in 2002. Tommy Thayer (ex-Black 'N Blue) features as guitarist on this album.
The album was recorded at Conway Recording Studios in Hollywood, CA and produced by the band's co-leader Paul Stanley and co-produced by Greg Collins. A fan routed North American tour is expected to promote the album as well as international shows throughout 2010.
The cover artwork was created by artist Michael Doret who has worked with Kiss previously for their 1976 album Rock and Roll Over. Wal-Mart will be the exclusive distributor of the album in the US and Canada, selling it as a three disc package including the new album, the album Kiss Klassics (a completely re-recorded greatest hits album already and exclusively released in Japan as Jigoku-Retsuden), and six song live DVD recorded April 5, 2009 in Buenos Aires, Argentina as part of the South American leg of the Kiss Alive/35 World Tour.
