[@jessehorvath1430]

Love that you give 80s kiss the credit it deserves. A lot of old school kiss fans dismiss the 80s material but in my opinion 1982 - 1992 was the best era of kiss. I personally love Monster as well.

Agreed! I think I’ve Had Enough is the best Kiss song ever. Killer opening song. Powerfull, strong melodie, awesome vocals and great guitarsolo.

[@CrazyLG72]

Yes! I always loved Animalize. Asylum and Animalize are similar with song writing but better songs on Asylum with better guitar solos. But both are solid albums.

[@chrisman3965]

KISS has always been a weird band for me. I love very little of their stuff, kinda sorta like most of it, and hate some of it. However, I saw them 2x on their reunion tour in '97 and it was an amazing experience. That said, I rarely if ever catch myself yearning to listen to KISS.

[@MrEnsiferum77]

I'm listening mostly prog rock and hard rock albums(of course and many different metal styles) and bands like kiss or riot(riot v today) and similar, i like them, listen to them from time to time, but hardly i like to return back and listening top-to-bottom album.... one of reason i think is, even they done something different, they do it early and in the 80's when metal exploded, they not fit in that 80's era... then in the 90's every all bands, rock, prog, heavy etc... are lost in the grunge era...

[@michael26146]

70s Kiss was classic rock ( till 78 ) then they went with the fads of the time,disco/pop ( 79/80 ) , hair metal (83 - 88 ), hard rock ( 89-92 ) ,then grunge ,then back to classic rock

The songs I like are very good, but the songs I don’t like I don’t like at all. That’s why it’s low. -Same for Hot In The Shade, I like about 5-6 of the songs, the others don’t really care for. Because there are 15 songs, a lot of the songs I don’t like are filler. -Revenge has grown on me a bit. A year ago, I would’ve put it around that 14-16 spot, it’s a bit higher because I do like “Take It Off,” “Heart Of Chrome,” and “Every Time I Look At You.” It’s a decent album I’ll say. I think “Domino” studio version isn’t that good, but the Alive 3 version is killer, makes the song 10x better.

Really nice ranking. I agree that 80s kiss is their best era, so many awesome albums. Only thing I'd really change is switching hot in the shade and revenge, hot in the shade is pretty good but has some of their worst songs, and I really like Revenge even though I Just Wanna is terrible, but it has so many of my favorite kiss songs including unholy and thou shalt not

[@siddharthdeshmukh8118]

The early records have such a natural and smooth flow, a reason why I think the self-titled, Hotter Than Hell, Rock And Roll Over and Love Gun are timeless classics.

[@marcoubagoleardini5770]

Hi, you may want to check out the songs that "inspired" KISS to come up with some of the deep cuts that you mentioned. Great White - "Dead End" -> reused by Paul to create the verses of "Under the Gun" (fantastic song still, I agree with you) Peter Kaukonen - "Dynamo Snackbar" -> reused by Gene for "Watchin' You" which is indeed one of the heaviest early tracks Slade - "Lay it Down" -> another one that loosely inspired Gene for "Doctor Love" (actually both Gene and Paul based a lot of their early stuff on Slade songs) Slade - "We'll Bring the House Down" -> Contains the hooligan-like chant that Gene reshaped into "I Love it Loud" Montrose - "Space Station #5" -> Paul tweaked the riff a bit and eventually came up with "Makin' Love" The Faces - "Looking Out the Window" -> it is an instrumental that laid the basis for Paul's "100'000 Years" The above are some relatively deeper cuts, some of the more blatant "inspirations" also include Free (both "Hotter than Hell" and "Heaven's on Fire" reek of "All Right Now"), Mountain ("Goin Blind" is a rewrite of Mountain's take on Jack Bruce's "Theme from an Imaginary Western"), The Who (compare "Love Her All I Can" with "Can't Explain") and Deep Purple (Paul admitted that "Stole your Love" is "Burn" played backwards), as well as the occasional copycat song such as the Rod Stewart-like "Hard Luck Woman" or the disco-template of "I Was Made for Lovin' You".

[@mikedegarmo3203]

I first got into KISS back in 1978 when I was 6 years old in the first grade. I had RARO and HTH on LP, Destroyer on 8 track, which I could only listen to in the car when my dad would finally relent and put it on, and then little by little amassed the complete discography so by the time The Elder was released, it was my first brand new KISS album purchase. Then every year from that point on, ( Each September for the most part), I would buy the new KISS album. IMO, 80's KISS is every bit as good as "classic" KISS and if I'm honest, is usually my go-to era. So COTN - Psycho Circus.

20. The Elder Crazy Nights Carnival of Souls Psycho Circus Hot in the Shade Animalize Asylum Unmasked Dynasty Monster Sonic Boom Revenge Lick it Up Creatures of the Night Love Gun Destroyer Rock and Roll Over Hotter than Hell Kiss 1. Dressed to Kill Dressed to Kill I feel is the band's most listenable album from front to back. Every other album of theirs had at least one track I could live without.

[@MrAlegeniale]

I also love Crazy Nights. I never understood the critic of calling it the "Kiss Jovi" album. The actual Kiss Jovi album came 2 years before that, it was called 7800° Fahrenheit.

[@holspa]

Nice to see your KISS ranking. I am working on mine for some time now and it will different then yours but with so many albums its normal. But very nice to see you talking about them and giving your opinion.

[@TheMafrand]

Don't agree on all of them but nice to see a Kiss ranking that doesn't look like all the others. I like 80s Kiss too :-).

[@codyogorman3209]

Possibly the most controversial Kiss video I’ve seen 😂 respect your opinion and perspective dude, great video!

[@arthurdrolet3693]

I am 50 and Music from the Elder will always rank as last on my list. Psycho Circus would be much lower. Destroyer and Revenge would be higher. You really did a great job in my opinion with your list. Keep up the great videos!

[@jerrymetalguire2128]

[@seagullpoet]

How many KISS books do you have ? 😎

[@officialFredDurstfanclub]

Goddamn, never thought I’d see the day where someone puts Asylum right at the top of their ranking. I don’t agree but serious respect on that, it’s actually impressive.

[@bagofbones95]

My ranking of the kiss albums are worst to best: 20. The Elder 19. Monster 18. Sonic Boom 17. Psycho Circus 16. Carnival of souls 15. Hot in the shade 14. Unmasked 13. Dynasty 12. Crazy nights 11. Asylum 10. Animalize 09. Revenge 08. Destroyer 07. Kiss 06. Hotter than hell 05. Love gun 04. Lick it up 03. Dressed to kill 02. Creatures of the night 01. Rock and roll over

[@Pustekuchen-bh8wy]

In my opinion The Elder is a masterpiece! It‘s so different to the other albums.I loved it when I was nine and I love it with 50. 81-82 was a special time of KISS. I would say the last albums after they reunited are boring, but KISS always tried new things and that‘s KISS.

[@jesterjigs9914]

Crazy nights number one for me !! Loved your list

[@perwarmell5741]

I would not rank Hot in Shades that hight but i agree with you at the final. Asylum is a great, really underrated album and i also think that is their best one. Really good, interesting list you got.

[@joaopintojr6780]

Interesting ranking, I agree with a lot of it, but I still like the 70’s Kiss better than the 80’s, and yes Music from the Elder is awful. 🤘🏻

[@EikeMenzel]

😊Well Done Job in this way... I am 60 and Do not totally agree but also I got a Top 40 because of some Solostuff of the founding Members of ❤KISS ❤ and a Part of the "Alive!" - Records. But this is my Top 10: (Personal Opinion of Germany's KISS-Army-Member # 4/1975) 10.) Paul Stanley's 'Live to win' (2006) 9.) KISS 'Alive II' (Because of the 5 Studiotracks/1977) 8.) KISS 'Creatures of the Night' (1982) 7.) Ace Frehley's 'Kiss' (1978) The only Top 10 Soloalbum and all know why... 6.) KISS 'Kiss' (1974) 5.) KISS 'Animalize' (1984) 4.) KISS 'Revenge' (1991/'92) 3.) KISS ' Asylum' (1985) 2.) KISS '(Music from) The ELDER' (1981) and last but not least 1.) KISS 'Alive!' (1975) (❤ The 'Best' Live-Album Ever Done! This let me Start lovin' ❤ *KISS* ❤ Christmas 1975!)

[@CrazyLG72]

I know everyone's list is different but wow, I'm impressed with yours! Asylum #1? Destroyer 13? Love it!! I've been a fan since 1977 at 5 years old and dug the debut, Love gun,Dynasty, alive 2 and Unmasked..Now in my 40s my top 5 are Unmasked, Creatures, Debut,Animalize and Love gun but Asylum is in my top 10..Was never a Destroyer fan and I actually enjoy The Elder more lol..Crazy nights at 3? Love it! ..great rankings man!

[@skyscraper14]

I disagree with your ranking but I totally respect it. Most others put Asylum and Crazy Nights at the bottoms of their lists. I'm with you, I like those albums, not as much as you do, but definitely higher than other reviewers. I was 6 in '76 and Destroyer was my introduction to the band, so I'm a little biased about how much stock I put in that album, but this is your list, not mine. That's what great about all these ranking videos, nobody's list is the same. Nice work.

[@mikewolosz9456]

The Elder is one of my favorite Kiss albums. Anything after Revenge I think totally sucks. Worst Crazy nights, carnival of souls, asylum, unmasked, dynasty Best the first 6 with Rock n Roll being best
