Ace Frehley has tapped long time friend and artist Ken Kelly to create the album cover for his SPACE INVADER, due out July 8th. The reveal comes exclusively through Rolling Stone today. Kelly, who created the iconic cover art for two of KISS’s best selling LPS, Destroyer (1976) and Love Gun (1977), says, "It was very exciting when I was approached with the idea of doing an album cover for Ace."

He continues, "I had spoken to Ace on a few occasions about the possibility, so I was delighted when it actually happened." Ace Frehley himself comments, ”I’ve been talking with Ken Kelly since 2007 about painting a CD Cover for me and it has finally happened! I couldn’t be more excited about the new Space Invader cover and the music behind it is also going to rock your world!”

With nearly 35 years between projects, KISS fans will surely be excited about this long-time duo working together again. Kelly concludes, "I am very pleased with the results and proud to play a part of Ace's continuing successful career!"

Cool cover...in a kitschy/retro 70s sort of way.

 

"Anomaly" was decent (better than Paul's last solo album/sleeping pill anyway) so bring it on, Ace!

Hope the album is good but the cover is shit. Looks cheap but if the album rocks, who cares?

Well its been done by the guy who did two of Kiss' 70s albums, so I guess thats what he is going for.

I like it because it has that classic feel that metal/hard rock albums had in the 70s and early 80s.

Yeah, the artwork was done by the same person who did Destroyer........so, I'm diggin' it. Looking forward to hearing this album and see what Ace has up his sleeve this time. Hope it's good!

The artwork doesn't matter anymore as the first video I heard blew chunks!

I really liked 'Anomoly' and this is really good too. Some strong tracks, especially the title track, 'Gimme a Feelin'', 'I Wanna Hold You', 'Change' and the excellent 'Starship'. Could have done without the cover of 'The Joker', which was never my favourite song anyway, but the rest is pretty good. A nice surprise, as I wasn't expecting too much

    • Yeah I guess it’s a little different for physical CD collectors, but even still, stuff can happen in four weeks. In the world of streaming, especially, there could still be half a dozen notable albums to come this year. I don’t know what they could be as I keep no track at all of upcoming albums, so I never know what’s still to come, which could be anything.    I guess if you’re a meticulous planner and are fully aware of every single new release you might be interested in, and there’s no more due this year - which is probably exactly what this Brendan dude is - no harm in releasing the list. 
    • She came out with in New Romantic era, like Adam and the Ants, Duran Duran Her father, Marty, had big hits in early sixties
    • I think I pretty much have my top ten list, but seeing as I have been tracking it through the year rather than leaving it to the end as normal, I am not sure it will change being that I don't really have more purchases lined up. But being that this year I have really gone wild on filling back catalogue gaps, I may pick up something I missed from this year and that will upset the apple cart ha ha
    • Whoah this is catchy!  
    • Calling for you, Emaheeval & Gone bad on the debut Widowmaker album were all Desperado songs. Of course the Widowmaker debut was released before Desperado's album finally got a release even though it was recorded after. The thing that always made me laugh was that when it was first released as Bloodied but unbowed with three extra tracks to what was the original planned tracklist, I bought it from Dee Sniders website, so was fully endorsed by Dee. But years later when Deadline released it under its original name, Ace, without the three extra songs, Dee claimed it had never been released before ... selective memory?

    • Did not have "liking an album from The Offspring" on my 2024 bingo card, but there we are. Not sure if it's pop, punk, or something else... catchy though.      
    • No no no!  Worst thing in the 80s (musicwise), Modern Talking.
    • Really liking this one bar the Journey cover, which whilst not terrible , doesn’t really do a lot for me. The rest though is rather excellent
