Original KISS drummer Peter Criss is teasing a Halloween announcement of what are expected to be the first official details of his upcoming solo album.

Earlier today, the 79-year-old musician shared a spooky video on his social media in which the date "October 31, 2025" flashes on the screen, followed by the name of two record labels, Flatiron and Silver Cat.

This past April, Peter spoke to

The Rock Experience With Mike Brunn about his upcoming rock solo album, which was co-produced by Criss alongside Barry Pointer, who has worked with Ozzy Osbourne, John 5, MÖTLEY CRÜE, Steve Stevens, Pearl Aday and Dolly Parton. Joining the legendary KISS musician on the LP are Billy Sheehan and Matthew Montgomery (a.k.a. Piggy D.) on bass, John 5 and Mike McLaughlin on guitar and Paul Shaffer on piano. The record also features the talents of backing vocalists Dennis and Sharon Collins, and Cat Manning of CAT 5.

"Yeah, I'm excited," Peter said. "I got great players on it. I got Billy Sheehan, Paul Shaffer, Johnny 5, Michael, my guitarist, [and] I got Piggy from ROB ZOMBIE. So it's like a dream team band. And it's a real Peter Criss album. It's an album I always wanted to do. And hopefully the fans will like it."

The album will be Criss's first solo release since 2007's "One For All", which arrived 13 years after his previous solo release.

"I had an absolute blast doing this album, and everyone was so much fun to work with — they were just amazing," Criss told Rolling Stone of the upcoming LP. "I will be doing a more in-depth interview closer to the release date in the fall."
