Two things everyone loves: music and playing around with nesting dolls, combined into one ultimate gadget. These awesome Matryoshka dolls are inspired by your favorite rock bands including Korn, The Beatles, Blink-182, KISS and more.
The set of nine nesting dolls was designed by Russian artist Pavel Kulinsky. Rock on with yo’ bad self.
Straight out of Hell and right under your Christmas tree is this hotter than Hell KISS-themed I-Dog. Who rocks harder than KISS? That’s right: no one. The dog sports Gene Simmons’ Demon face paint, but also shows some love to Paul Stanley with stars for the Star Child.
It plays back music via a built-in speaker and also puts on an electronic light show, all for just 30 bucks. If this dog was a real supporter of KISS, it’d drop the sassy light show and get to work on some pyrotechnics.
Gene, the Demon, is a blood-thirsty psychotic bass-slapping machine. Nowadays, he just sits around at home banging his hot wife while he sells out more KISS merchandise. If only Ace Frehley were around to knock some sense into him.
Guitar Hero World Tour has just hit store shelves and you know what – no KISS. I’m trying to think of a reason to purchase an $80 dollar KISS guitar for the latest Guitar Hero when there isn’t even a KISS song in it. Nothing comes to mind. It’s a good thing this guitar is compatible with Rock Band.
Music can be really costly these days, especially if you’re the one guy caught leaking the Guns N’ Roses album on to the net. Even music stores mark up prices on both uses and new CDs at an outrageous rate. It almost seems like everyone is out to get anyone who loves listening to music.
Well, Amazon wants you to know that it’s not out to get you with overpriced music from classic artists. I mean afterall, you’ve probably heard most of the songs on a CD you’re willing to buy, anyway. Amazon wants to hook up all those in the KISS Army by letting the Greatest Kiss album go for just $1.99. That’s like 12 cents a song! This album has all the hits, too! Deuce, Strutter, Detroit Rock City and more! It seems like all it’s really missing is Love Gun. This deal will be going on the whole weekend through Monday. If you’re a KISS fan that doesn’t already have this album, don’t miss out.

Check out this impressive real-time music visualization system. We already know that the Arduino is capable of pretty much anything your brain can fathom and then some, including this sweet DIY project that’ll turn any mundane stage band into a star-bound success. The amount of hardware that has gone into this visual output system is extensive but well worth it.
If you’re in a band but your stage act sucks and you want to get your foot in the door then you need to become like KISS. No, I don’t mean you need excessive pyrotechnics or fake blood to put on a great show. All you need is an Arduino, a Bluetooth adapter, a couple of webcams, a network card and piezo sensors. You’ll be off putting on shows that even GWAR would be jealous of.
