Here's a behind the scenes look at KISS, just before the show begins. That's Mike "Spike" Rush delivering the legendary "You wanted the best, you got the best" intro on the bottom right.

Check out the Mexican KISS Army at last weeks KISS shows in Monterrey, Mexico City and Guadalajara.

On this day in KISStory, October 6, 2009 - KISS released their SONIC BOOM album exclusively at Walmart. The album became KISS' highest charting US album ever, reaching #1 on Billboard's Top Rock Albums and #2 on Billboard Top 200.

SONIC BOOM was recorded at Conway Recording Studios in Hollywood, CA and produced by Paul Stanley.

The cover artwork was created by artist Michael Doret who also created the cover of KISS' Rock and Roll Over album.

SONIC BOOM was released exclusively in the US at Walmart in a three disc digipak, which included the new album, the album KISS Klassics (a completely re-recorded greatest hits), a six song live DVD recorded in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and a 20 page booklet.

The album was also released on limited edition 180 gram vinyl exclusively on KISSOnline. It was pressed into five colors (red, green, black, blue and purple) with 1000 copies pressed of each.

Paul Stanley on Sonic Boom: "We are all very proud of it and blown away by the incredible reviews it is getting worldwide. Many people have asked us how we managed to capture the fire and spirit that's in all the songs, in all the playing and in all the singing."

"It's what happens when a band loves its fans, loves being together and loves making great rock and roll..."

TRACK LISTING:

"Modern Day Delilah" / "Russian Roulette" / "Never Enough" / "Yes I Know (Nobody's Perfect)" / "Stand" / "Hot and Cold" / "All For the Glory" / "Danger Us" / "I'm an Animal" / "When Lightning Strikes / "Say Yeah"

Here's a photo of KISS and their techs backstage in Mexico City.

Pictured are Mike "Spike" Rush - Gene Simmons' bass tech, Paul Bassett - Eric Singer's drum tech, Fran Steuber - Paul Stanley's guitar tech and Jim Survis - Tommy Thayer's guitar tech.

One year, one million fans, one unbelievable tour...

Spitting in the face of any doubters, the truth is now undeniable: KISS is bigger and stronger than ever.

You Wanted The Best, You Got The Best and the best keeps getting better.

A whole lot more coming, including another album and another tour.

Tommy, Eric, Gene and I take this victory lap with you, The KISS Army.
