These bold KISS innovations reflect how iconic this rock band remains. Though Gene Simmons (and his tongue) seem to dominate most products made paying tribute to the group, there's something immediately recognizable about these creations.
Still acting as inspiration for anything from Halloween costumes to toilet paper, the KISS look lives on in ways that many never expected. Forever remembered for their daring looks and white and black face paint, the legacy of this group will likely live on for many years to come.
Gene Simmons, arguably the most famous member of the group, is responsible for much of the press surrounding this group. With his own ventures and even a reality TV show, Simmons keeps KISS in mainstream media in a big way.
