KISS's Collaboration With Japanese Pop Group MOMORIO CLOVER Z: Video Footage From The Studio

January 2, 2015

KISS has collaborated with the Japanese pop group MOMORIO CLOVER Z on a new single, to be released on January 28, 2015. The track "Yume No Ukiyo Ni Saitemina" was composed by KISS guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley and Greg Collins, with lyrics written by Yuho Iwasato. MOMOIRO CLOVER Z performs the song, with KISS providing background vocals and instruments. It will be released in two versions — "Momoclo Edition" and "KISS Edition" — via iTunes in 120 countries. A music video for the track, featuring both bands, has already been shot in Las Vegas.

A nine-minute behind-the-scenes clip from the studio featuring Stanley can be seen below.

Both the "Momoclo Edition" and "KISS Edition" of "Yume No Ukiyo Ni Saitemina" will feature the title track and one same coupling song, but the "KISS Edition" will include the track titled "Samurai Son", which was made using "Yume No Ukiyo Ni Saitemina" as its base. It is sung by KISS while MOMORIO CLOVER Z members participate on vocals. The "Momoclo Edition" will come with a Blu-ray disc which contains the music video for the title track instead.

"Samurai Son" will also be made available on KISS's upcoming Japanese compilation "Best Of KISS 40", alongside 19 tracks spanning the band's four-decade career and a DVD featuring three exclusive live performances.

MOMORIO CLOVER Z will open for KISS on March 3 at the Tokyo Dome.
