Brain fart alert 🚨 When I was describing the Asylum album cover, the the colour of the their lips is a throw back to the colours glowing behind their heads on the ‘78 solo albums, not the lips 😩 what a rookie mistake haha ! NO PROFESSIONALS WHERE USED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy

Hi Darcy, another great show! Thank you. I'm 58 and when I was around 12/13 I had a couple of neighbours, a little older than I that went to the same school. Up to this point, the only music I listened to was on the radio, all those hits and some of the music my parents listened to, which was not really good. Of my other two school buddies one had a much older brother and that's were KISS comes in. We used to hang at this place on the week ends and listen to some of his brothers records. Things like Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep, Deep Purple and of course the magical KISS - Alive! was in the mix. This was all new and very strange to me but KISS somehow, maybe also because of the visual aspect, caught my ele and ear! The track that did it was 100 000 Years. I had never heard anything like this before and loved that track from the get-go, and KISS became there and then and would be for many years to come my absolute favourite band. I had no money whatsoever to buy music, so all I could do was buy cassettes and then painstakingly record the music we wanted, or from the records, other cassettes or the radio. When I eventually had some money, went out on a record hunt, looking for ALIVE! but with no luck. At the time the only album I found and had just been released was the Double Platinum, which caught caught my eye and still have and treasure to this day. I was a KISS fan for many years to come but each new school year I got to know different school buddies and went practically through all music generes known to man, but KISS always remained. In 1987 I moved from South Africa to Portugal and got to know some people who loved music and did a local radio show dedicated to the more extreme Rock and Metal sounds. Years later I had my Town radio show and started going to Metal concerts and Festivals and thus my love for extreme Metal started slowly, but now is where I am. Somehow KISS started to take a back seat and with all the shit that went on inside the KISS camp, I started drifting away from all the drama. Looking back now and having recently listened again to all the KISS records I own (Full discography) I had felt it for some years now, but KISS was only and remains relevant for me up until Animalize. After that they just don't do it for me anymore. Being unemployed for almost five years recently, I have started selling off a lot of my music collection and most of my KISS stuff. Having said all that these are the studio albums that matter to me: 1. KISS 2. Rock And Roll Over 3. Creatures Of The Night 4. Music From The Elder 5. Destroyer 6. Hotter Than Hell 7. Dynasty 8. Love Gun 9. Dressed To Kill 10. Animalize 11. Link It Up 12. Unmasked

Wow! Didn't expect your #1 to be Lick It Up. But it is also one of my most favorite albums from Kiss also. Creatures of the Night is my most favorite KISS album of all time. The real surprise for me is when you ranked Asylum over the Debut album. Personally it would be in the top 5 for me. But other then that I believe my rankings would be pretty similar to yours Darcy. I know doing a 20 album rankings is a task. Hats off to you for doing it. Can't wait to see your SCORPIONS rankings. They are in my top ten most favorite groups of all times. I truly love their 70's and 80's era so much. In my opinion they put out some of the greatest albums ever released back then. Great video Darcy take care brother.🙂🤘🍺

Great video. Lots of info too. You've had a huge history with them that I didn't have so we differ on a few positions but I bet if we done top 10 songs we'd have a lot of similarities. Crazy Nights I rank a lot higher which is down to that album being the only one I have some nostalgia for. Dynasty is my number 1.
@darcysixstringsninelives3493
Well maybe we will do our favourite KISS songs video together, yes let’s make that happen ! Most of my UK friends would put Crazy Nights higher, seems that’s when they made a bigger splash over there ! Thanks as always mate 🍹 Back to the beach :))

Kiss is my fave band ever. It's hard to rank them but my top five are Love Gun, Destroyer, Rock and Roll Over, Asylum, and Lick it Up. Kiss Alive 2 is my fave live album ever!! I saw them live in the 80s on Asylum, Crazy nights , Hot in the Shade , and Revenge which was 90s.

My very first 2 Kiss albums were "Alive!" and "The Originals". I was in the sixth grade, and got them from a friend. Oh man, how I WISH I still had "The Originals". A mint set now with all it's contents intact goes for a fortune!

@borderedge6465 Год назад
With such a diverse discography I think many folks have their odd favorite songs. Here is my top list of non-hit, deep tracks and hidden gems: - Strange ways (Hotter …) - Baby driver (Rock n Roll Over) - Do you love me (Destroyer) - Goodbye (Paul solo) - ‘I’, Only You, Odyssey (the Elder) For album ranking, it’s virtually impossible for me to differentiate between childhood magic vs true quality with Alive and Alive II. Those albums just give me goosebumps.

Great ranking and good to hear your thoughts on the albums Darcy. Like you say each album offers something of value on it. Kiss is a band I've not really listened to for years, my pal at school was a big fan and we used to listen to the albums quite a lot. Revenge, Psycho, s/t, creatures and asylum I remember liking the most. I also really like sonic boom, it flows well as an album and I managed to see them live on that tour, what a show they put on. Looking forward to the next ranking video.
@mark_beastpriest5539
@mark_beastpriest5539 Год назад
Kiss were my very first hard rock band. I was in the sixth grade. Every kid loved Kiss. Of course, AC/DC became my favourite in 1982 and have been since, but Kiss were the introduction. I like most of their albums, but TBH, "Unmasked" and "The Elder" are on the bottom. But my top 5 are "Kiss", "Destroyer", "Revenge", "Lick It Up" and "Creatures of the Night". You're totally right on the makeup issue. But I think albums like "Sonic Boom" and "Monster" are pretty damn good. I only have Paul's and Ace's solo albums. I really didn't like the other two.

1. Kiss 2. Dressed to Kill 3. Love Gun 4. Hotter than Hell 5. Destroyer 6. Creatures of the Night 7. Rock and Roll Over 8. Lick It Up 9. Dynasty 10. Music from "The Elder" 11. Animalize 12. Asylum 13. Unmasked 14. Psycho Circus Kiss was my first band as well. "Alive II" was my first album in '77 (still a desert island LP for me). I was the biggest fan (like everyone else) for five yrs. There was some creep by bands like Cheap Trick, Heart, Queen, Aerosmith...but like you, ~1982 was when it all broke open with Sabbath, Ozzy, Maiden, Scorpions, etc. etc. etc. I had to call it a day though after "Asylum" (besides "Psycho Circus"). Keep up the great work!
@darcysixstringsninelives3493
I remember the day I bought Alive II from Woolco here in Canada (later bought out by Walmart), I was so damn excited to get home & play it ! I played it nonstop, I’m sure I drove my mom nuts lol. Awesome to hear we share some of those great memories 🤘 Cheers my friend

Excellent ranking video Darcy. My mate Sion was , and still is a mega kiss fan. I've picked up a few things over the years, and still have my original KISS Alive on vinyl. I have a copy of lick it up on vinyl, but just the disk, no cover. I was lucky enough to see them live without makeup, with mate who had 2 tickets, but needed a lift. Couldn't tell you which tour it was though. I've still got a copy of Heavens on fire, 7" single I bought when it came out, great track. I think My favourite solo album is the Paul one, Ace is second favourite. Did you pick up the best of compilation, Kiss Killers, came out in 1982 and has 4 new tracks on it that were awesome I'm a legend tonight, Down on your knees, Nowhere to run & Partners in Crime. It's my favourite Kiss cd, and I played it to death!!!!
@darcysixstringsninelives3493

Your #1 LIU, in my opinion, was the bands most important release in their catalogue. Taking off the makeup paved the way for the 80s and Mtv. A Million to One is my all time favorite non makeup song... Asylum is the bands most underrated Kiss album and you ranked it well. My top 5 are LIU, Creatures, LG, Dynasty and Revenge

Ah man, Kiss is such a nostalgia trip for me, despite being a teenager still, this band was a big part of my childhood, more based on the image and personas rather than music albeit... my father was a HUGE Kiss fan, I remember him watching what I think was the Budokan 1977 show on bootleg DVD when I was about four or five. He actually saw the band twice, once it 1988 at Monsters of Rock in Schweinfurt, Germany. Second time was Springfield, Massachussets in 1996 or '97, whenever Powerman 5000 opened for 'em. This is a discography I have heard pretty much all of, however for the sake of time I'll stick to a top #10 for my opinions. #10 - Rock and Roll Over: These top #10 are all albums I can put on and enjoy throughout the full runtime, however for some reason this album isn't one I go back too a lot when thinking of Kiss. I Want You and Baby Driver are standout songs in the album though, true gems. #9 - Love Gun: Another one that many would rank higher but for some reason doesn't stick with me. Aside from the title track, I don't think too much about this album... songs like I Stole Your Love, Tomorrow and Tonight and Then She Kissed Me are favorites off the album. The production is a big issue for me if I had to pick something #8 - Animalize: a true hair metal album from Kiss, this is, dare I say, a Motley Crue level of "heavy" in the grand scheme of things. Into the Fire and Heaven's on Fire are favorites of mine. #7 - Dressed To Kill: Rock And Roll All Nite was my childhood and will never get old for me, Room Service is phenomenal, Two Timer is catchy, a great album. #6 - Hotter Than Hell: Got To Choose and especially Let Me Go, Rock N' Roll are killer, the former being a top #10 son in my opinion. #5 - Revenge: Thou Shalt Not, Unholy, and Domino?? The heaviest Kiss ever got, the vocals on this from Gene and Paul are great, the following tour was absolutely amazing (the Tokyo 1995 bootleg is amazing!). I truly love this album so much, and for me personally, God Gave Rock N' Roll To You II is an anthem at the level of a "We Will Rock You" or "Rocket Man". #4 - Lick It Up: The kickoff of the Hair Metal period, the title track, Exciter, And on the 8th Day, Not For Innocent. A true 10/10 album. #3 - Creatures Of The Night: Their most "Metal" album up until Revenge? Might be... War Machine, Saint and Sinner, Killer, I Love It Loud. Once again can't describe the love for this. #2 - Kiss: This is the epitome of 70's Rock in my opinion. A part of the holy trinity of debuts with Aerosmith and Boston's respective debuts. Let Me Know is one of my all time favorite songs, Cold Gin, Deuce, Black Diamond. That production, the guitar tones and vocals of the entire group throughout? Sheer perfection. #1 - Destroyer: Ultimately it may be the stereotypical pick, but this is one that doesn't get old for me. I can put this on and just imagine being in the 70's, the production is gigantic, everything feels big, the intro to the album sets the mood... the harmonizes riff to Detroit Rock City is one of the greatest intros of all time. King Of The Nightime World, Great Expectations, even Beth... I, love, this, album. As always this was my extremely long essay lol. Loves the video, been on a binge of your content lately, absolutely love your videos, you're relateable and your interaction with viewers / commenters is something I respect om another level!

Back in the day i can't remember exactly when i discover the band, it has to be in the late 70's early 80's and for some reason, down here, there was a rivalry between Kiss and Queen?? then lose track of the band until the Crazy Nights era..... right now i only have Alive, Dynasty, Unplugged and Double Platinum, so as you can see i still have a lot of work to do!

Great job Darcy. Really enjoyed it. Don’t think I’ve ever seen the debut so low but as you said all Kiss rankings are drastically different. RNRO only has two throwaway tracks imo and the debut has three so they would be my top two. Shit some of their albums have more throwaway tracks than keepers. Lol. Stay heavy Darcy!
@darcysixstringsninelives3493
Thank you very much ! There is virtually nothing separating some of those albums, a thin layer of makeup that’s about it lol. Thanks again Ronnie 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy

Lick It Up was my first Kiss album I bought. I had Creatures Of The Night on tape before that and Lick It Up delivered. A Million To One is one of Paul Stanleys greatest vocal performances on a album. I agree Gene sounding mean on that album. Great list and love that you gave Creatures and Lick It Up well deserved love.
@darcysixstringsninelives3493
I totally agree on A Million To One! Not a weak track on that album, Paul & Gene both at the top of their game. Great to hear from you 🤘 Cheers Petri

I must say I´m a little bit proud of myself as I made it through the whole 38 minutes, hehe... For some reason Kiss never klicked with me. I bought the "Crazy Nights" single when it came out and instandly hated it. Obviously not the best point to enter the Kiss realm, huh? I had to watch them in 2008 at the Graspop Metal Meeting, a three day festival in Belgium, Priest headlined on friday, Kiss on saturday and Maiden on sunday. Ok, here´s my Kiss ranking: 1. Music From The Elder ... that´s it, hahaha....

For me, Destroyer would be number one with Lick it Up a close second. Started listening to them in the early 80s. Saw them live on the Crazy Nights tour. Only album I absolutely hated was Hot in the Shade. I really liked Dynasty and Unmasked as well. The Elder was ok. Doesn't deserve the hate it gets. Nothing against Thayer or Singer, but I think it's a bit offensive that they are wearing Ace and Peter's makeup instead of getting a design of their own.

@darcysixstringsninelives3493 5 месяцев назад

Love Singer & Thayer, I couldn’t imagine having Ace & Peter there now. It was a cluster over 20 years ago, and if you see the state Ace seems to be getting himself in now, no thanks. I guess people either fall one side or the other with the makeup. I’m in the camp of being very happy the way it is now. Would have made zero sense to bring new characters and makeup designs in the early 2000s. I mean, it bombed spectacularly the first time they did it. Outside of parts of the 1980 European tour, and the 1980 Aussie tour (where I am), they had zero success with new characters. Just my humble opinion.

Not a fan of the band, seen them once in 1988 with Anthrax in San Diego. I tried listening but it’s not what I like. I remember them from the mid 70’s. They got a few songs I like, that’s it, not even a shirt. Or patch. And I have tons of both from concerts. I gave thumbs up for their fans. At least it’s not bubble gum pop.
