LONDON -- American glam rockers KISS are unleashing their "Monster" on the U.K. public.
The band -- Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer-- was in London on Tuesday to launch its new retrospective book, KISS Monster, and to hold a news conference.
The limited-edition book -- which is one metre tall -- features unseen photographs from the band's 40-year career.
"A band that is bigger than life deserves a book that's bigger than life. You could call it a coffee table book, but if you put legs on it, it is a coffee table," joked Stanley.
Only 1,000 copies of KISS Monster will be on sale and each one will be signed by the band. It will retail at a staggering $4,299.
"It's not a cheap book because it is hand bound, hand put together. It's the Rolls-Royce of books," said Simmons.
KISS Monster is now on sale in the U.K.
