Stanley and\u00a0Gene Simmons, have announced their debut album.<\/p>\n<p>Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons first revealed early last year that they were working together on the project, saying at that time that they had written and recorded 10 songs together.<\/p>\n<div class=\"td-a-ad id_inline_ad0 id_ad_content-horiz-center\"><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">Advertisement<\/span><\/div>\n<p>Now, they have revealed that their album \u2018Dancing While\u00a0The\u00a0World Is Ending\u2019 will be released on August 28\u00a0(pre-order\u00a0here), and they have\u00a0given a taste of it with the singles \u2018Body Down\u2019 and the title track.<\/p>\n<p>The music so far is much more in the\u00a0folk rock\u00a0tradition than the glam metal of their fathers\u2019 band, following\u00a0on from their on-stage cover of\u00a0Simon &amp; Garfunkel\u2019s \u2018The Sound\u00a0Of\u00a0Silence\u2019 back in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the songs so far here:<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"
