Hi John!! cool list, you have some interesting choices for some very controvertial studio releases.... i'm not a huge Kiss fan, just own three releases, however i'm trying to get their 70's stuff first and then the more commercial ones. cheers and be well

@jcrockandmetalreviews Год назад

That's cool. Everything that they released in the 70's is very good.

Awesome ranking

I only had three Kiss Albums Dynasty, Unmasked and Monster. Kiss is not an all time act for me and being a catholic - Christian Them holding a concert on a Good Friday is what made me give them the middle finger. Love Kiss back in the late 70's even My first I went to was Kiss for the Unmasked Tour. At that time Peter Chriss had left the band and Eric Carr was the new drummer RIP to him, I was 14 at the time and had to be well behaved for my older sister. I am about to turn 58 next month ( end of the week to be précised) . Bought the first with my pocket money , Dad bought the Tickets and told us kids to have a great time. As for Monster , that was given to by an ex girlfriend who was the mother of my child and her new partner. The late 70's era was basically country vs disco and those bands had to fit in either one or the other. Again not having any of the 80's of Kiss but lets face it it was hair metal vs early Rap on the charts.

Thanks that's a cool story. The first time I saw Kiss was in 1990 on their Hot in the Shade tour and at that time they were a completely different band. This was when they were part of the hair metal scene.

Gold: Rock and Roll Over, Kiss, Lick it Up, Hotter Than Hell, Creatures of the Night Silver: Unmasked, Music from The Elder, Dress to Kill, Destroyer, Love Gun, Asylum Bronze: Monster, Sonic Boom, Dynasty Garbage: Psycho Circus, Carnival of Souls, Animalize, Crazy Nights, Revenge, Hot in the Shade. The era from 1974-1977 I like a lot, but the era from 1980-1983 was cool too. I think they should have stopped all together after their 1985 thirteenth studio album 'Asylum.' To me that would be considered ending on a high note, because everything after this one doesn't appeal to me.

@jcrockandmetalreviews Год назад

Nice! I like seeing Music from the Elder get some of the praise that it deserves.

@amjreptx1 Год назад

@@jcrockandmetalreviews I always thought a world without heroes was from Floyd. And when I heard it on the album I was shocked. I truly enjoyed my time listening to the elder, unmasked, and Asylum. Those three are being under appreciated.

@Rabant777 12 дней назад

Interesting opinions. Kiss are my favourite band, but I couldn't say that they have a "perfect" album - well not by my definition of the word as I'd make changes to every record. Hotter than Hell, Rock and Roll Over and Dressed to Kill are close to perfect though. Lick it Up is the album that I would most disagree with you on - certainly the highest ranking non-make up album for me. What's with using the bootleg Creatures cover though?

@jcrockandmetalreviews 12 дней назад

I just used the template that is on the tiermaker site lol

@arnijulian6241 29 дней назад

This is a hard one to rank. Honestly just to save me thinking I'd slap everything under S up one rank as I can't think of a Kiss album that wasn't at least ''good''. (Love gun) & (Creatures of the Night) not in S just seems wrong. Of anything belongs in C/It's okay is just (Monster) & maybe (lick it up). kind of think (Hot in the Shade) is underrated. From my memory near 1/2 of kiss albums S. Few bands comes close for consistency of giving the fans what they wanted. I'm not a bug fan of USA rock or metal but the only real exceptions from memory are Kiss, Blue oyster cult, Van Halen & Havok. I can take or leave most USA bands with the exception of big band or the jazz scene as that is another beast. Most American metal is not worth listening to as it is marketing over art. They are selling an idea & rarely music. Worse thing that happened to metal was becoming popular as marketing ruined much. Rock I never understood Christian or most soft rock & how that is so popular in the USA as it is terrible!

@jcrockandmetalreviews 28 дней назад

Yeah I think all of these albums are pretty good but I try not to put too much in the S or A tiers otherwise there wouldn't really be much of a point in doing these videos.

@arnijulian6241 28 дней назад

@@jcrockandmetalreviews True; but putting a bunch in S would just show how great of a band Kiss is & the 1/2 odd albums that can sit on the back burner!. The 9 you put up top are really personal preference for arrangement though your 3 top picks are great choices for S even if love gun & Creatures of the night are easily on par in S. I have listened to most of kisses studio albums but I have missed a few as only so many hours in the day with 20 albums being quite a few. Unmasked, Music from the Elder & Revenge are not ringing any bells. (monster) is kisses worse album but a pretty high worse. Low C high D. If Someone put Monster on I wouldn't complain though I wouldn't be glad. Fact their worse is an easy listen while you do other thing is much to kisses credit! Stuck it on & at least the 1st track Hell Or Hallelujah hits fairly hard but album does go off the 1st 2/3 excluding ''back to the stone age'' as a simple but good song. 'Eat your heart' out to 'take me down' picks up. (Outta this world) is the best song on monster but I do have love for cow bell! I'm a simple man with simple tastes for the most part. I did skip freak & short mercy as meh. You put ''hot in the shade'' way to low. B (very good) at least but A personally as it's great. (Hot in Shade) could do with a remaster as the audio quality was middling even back when it was recorded in 1989. I think the Audio quality gets to people & far to much plain old rock in an age of metal in the 1980's.

Crazy nights,hot in the shade is best albums

@sakblabbath6592 5 месяцев назад

Perfect - KISS Alive, ACE 78,rock and roll over, dressed to kill,kiss, creatures and lick it up ( I called it Young and wasted) Great Hotter than hell,love gun, dynasty,Asylum,Monster, Peter 78and Paul 78 Okay the elder, revenge, carnival of souls, psycho circus Bad -unmasked, animalize, crazy nights,sonic boom,hot in the shade,Gene 78 I've been a KISS fan around 75 to 78. I grew to love some of the later albums but Gene Simmons singing a Disney song scarred me.i moved onto Cheap Trick,van Halen, Boston and blue Oyster Cult in 1979.

@jcrockandmetalreviews 5 месяцев назад

I agree. The 70s albums are the best

You have brutal taste in music. Kiss sucks ass.

How poetic?

@jynx1395 5 месяцев назад

@@jcrockandmetalreviews I wouldn't say poetic. Their songs are generic. Their musicianship is lousy. They were a spectacle. Every last bit of makeup, blood and fire was needed. Outside of Ace, the rest are garbage.
