The Swedish entertainment company Pophouse acquired the musical catalog, image and brand of KISS, according to a statement from the firm itself.

KISS is one of the most recognized and iconic bands in music history. They redefined the concept of rock shows and have always taken their art to new, unexplored territories. The band has consistently been able to attract new generations of fans and our mission is to fulfill the band’s vision of becoming immortal and allowing new generations to discover and be a part of the KISS journey and carry it forward.

With the help of the energy of the fans, the band, our experience and creativity, we will make that vision a reality,” says Johan Lagerlöf, chief investment officer at Pophouse in a statement.

WE RECOMMEND YOU: Kiss is immortalized with digital avatars

Last December it was announced that KISS would “continue” on tour thanks to events such as what happened with ABBA in Voyage with the presentations he had in London due to the interference of
Pophouse, whose co-founder is Björn Ulvaeus, from ABBA.

We’ve always been breaking new ground in popular culture and this partnership will ensure we continue to do so for years to come. Because what Pophouse is doing is breaking rules. We already have several plans in development, where the avatar show is one, a biopic another and a KISS themed experience a third. The future couldn’t be more exciting!” said KISS bassist and co-founder Gene Simmons in the same statement.

Although no figures were revealed, it was revealed that it was for 300 million dollars.
