KISS will be returning with Monster, the 20th studio album in their historic career, set for release on Oct. 16 in North America through Universal Music Enterprises. The band's first single, "Hell or Hallelujah," is available digitally today, July 3, and makes its worldwide premiere with the lyric video (seen below).

Monster features collaborations among all four members-including co-founders Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons and longtime members guitarist Tommy Thayer and drummer Eric Singer. "There are no symphony orchestras, boy choirs, keyboards, outside producers or songwriters on this album," promises Gene Simmons. "The best thing we did was to turn inwards to ourselves. Tommy and Eric have revitalized this band, with a work ethic and the talent to back it up. This is a real band effort. KISS has become a behemoth. We're going where no bands have gone before."
