The title was still not revealed but will be his first record since "One For All", released in 2007. Some of the special guests of Criss' record are the bassist Billy Sheehan, guitarist John 5 and pianist Paul Shaffer. He talked about the upcoming album in an interview with Mike Brunn. "Yeah, I'm excited," Peter said. "I got great players on it. I got Billy Sheehan, Paul Shaffer, Johnny 5, Michael, my guitarist, [and] I got Piggy from Rob Zombie. So it's like a dream team band. And it's a real Peter Criss album. It's an album I always wanted to do. And hopefully the fans will like it," he said (Transcribed by Blabbermouth).
