KISS guitarist Tommy Thayer recently reunited with his former bandmate in Black ‘N Blue, singer Jaime St. James, to write and record a new six-song EP, Bombshell. The official music video for the EP’s title track can now be viewed below.
The effort is available to order from the duo’s web site, thayerstjames.com.
Bombshell track listing:
1. Bombshell
2. Bulletproof
3. Time of My Life
4. Tonight’s the Night
5. Magnetic
6. I Wanna Fly
Thayer and St. James comment, “Our story has always been about friendship first. From the beginnings of Black ‘N Blue, before the tours, the records, and craziness of the ’80s, we were two friends writing songs and chasing dreams together. That bond has never changed.
Bombshell is the first time since the late ’80s that we’ve written and recorded new music side by side. We didn’t come into it with a plan, we just wanted to get together, write, and see where it took us. The joy for us is in the process, and that’s what has kept us coming back to it after all these years.
“These six songs are simply two best friends doing what we love most: creating and recording music together. That’s where it started, and that’s where it still lives.”

Not for $50 bucks! No way! I recently paid $14 for a full length, kick ass, Megadeth album!
And why is it me seeing Tommy Thayer playing a Les Paul in this video gives me “Spaceman PTSD”?
I had to tap out early – the song & video were extra cheesy.
Who knew Timmy had moves – since he basically played the Tin Man with Kiss?
So so tune
wow I have never seen or listen to this before I may give it a listen today or tonight very cool and nice!
I gave it 42 seconds and quit. I don’t need to hear 80’s style vocals in 2026 and it was very bubble gum.
