Thanks for the memories brother! I'm 59 years old and my first concert ever was KISS at Madison Square Garden in 1978. It was amazing, and ruined all future concerts for me growing up. Rock and Roll Over was my first album, and remains my favorite to this day! I was very fortunate to have been there back in their prime. I never missed a concert from 78 on whenever they came to NY or NJ. I grew up with them, got married and had 3 kids with them, and was fortunate to see them throughout my adult life as well. That said you're right. It's time. This avatar thing is embarrassing from my perspective. Once again, great job with the video. Thanks again for the memories, and all my best to you and your band!!! You're a young man, so rock on!!!!!

Just stumbled on your channel...good to see younger gen loving KISS. I agree with a lot of your rankings...I'd have Ace's solo in top 5. ALIVE is still the go-to record but I still reach for first 3 studio albums, then R&R Over and Destroyer... and then Love Gun. Although I'm a drummer, Ace was my first music hero! His solos are so sublime...his trademark riffs are imo, underrated and/or overlooked when comparing him to the usual "all-time" greats. I was gifted ALIVE in 1976 at my 7th birthday party....been hooked ever since...at 54 they were my most played band on Spotify in 2023...I'm a musician too and have played 400-450 gigs since 1990...lucky enough to still play 8-10 gigs/year and get paid well for most of them...have a gig at the Variety Playhouse in ATL in January...should sell out (1,400 tix)! Keep up the dream! Rock on!

I'm in my 60's and my first Kiss Album was Dress to Kill, 1975. Not one bad song on the album but besides Rock and Roll All Night, my favorite off that album was Rock Bottom with the beautiful sound of the guitar solo intro. My top 5 are: 1. Dress to Kill 2. Alive 3. Destroyer 4. Rock and Roll Over 5. Love Gun

I love that younger people are discovering real music and becoming fans like we did. KISS was my first love then I heard Led Zeppelin and that was, as they say, that. Led Zeppelin never made a filler anything. Every album studio or otherwise was IMO perfection. If you like KISS you must like Zep too. Anyways have fun and make some music man.

I agree with most of your order. It's refreshing seeing someone your age championing them like you do, but you 100% get it and they grabbed you the same way they did every other KISS fan. Technically I'm one of the younger generation of KISS fans as when I discovered them the album at the time was Revenge. First time I saw them in person was at the Radisson Mart Plaza Hotel for the Official Miami KISS Konvention in 1995, my first 2 shows were on the Reunion tour in both Miami and Memphis in 96 and 97. Since then I've seen them a total of 24 times. They really hold a special place in my heart, but I have the same mindset as Ace and Peter where the marketing and over promotion with stupid merchandise made them a parody of themselves. However their impact is still there and I'm glad that they finally put it to bed. Wish Eric Carr was still here, as he and Ace are my favorite members. Tears are Falling would have to be my all time favorite KISS track although not the first song you think of when you think of KISS. Congrats on giving this gen x'er renewed faith in music fans your age, you have rocking taste brother!🤟

Great review. I probably would shift a few albums around on my top albums list. It would be really hard for me to pick the top 3. For myself Destroyer, Rock n Roll Over and Love Gun were always my favorite. I first "heard" Kiss when I was like 10 and they were already "past their 70's Prime". I took a lot of crap in the 80's as a teen for liking Kiss when bands like Def Leppard, Motley Crue or even Metallica or Slayer were ruling metal sounds. While I don't dislike Tommy or Eric as players or even their personalities, I have a HUGE problem with the original make up thing. I get it, it is business and sometimes ego's or personalities clash which is why I had no problem being right there in the non-makeup days. But the "it's characters and anyone can be one" is stupid. To me it's half a cover band. If they would have given them new make-up would have been there till the end. BTW thanks for posting and it is awesome to see a younger person into classic hard rock / metal (new or old). Rock on.

First I'm hoping you read this my young brother....for starters I love your passion for our Favorite band Kiss! That's kickass seeing a young brother digging Kiss. I'm coming from old guard as a fan since a little kid in 1977. Really was completely crazy by 1978 when 3 days before Halloween 1978 Phatom of the Park came on our tv sets that if we were lucky had 4 channels tops, no satellite tv, no cable yet, no wifi....I'm sure you know when shit was invented lol...obviously no internet...so the film was awesome to a young Kiss can into Kiss , monsters, aliens, and Star Wars!!! The Kiss lunch box for school lunches. That Halloween would forever solidify Halloween and Kiss as favorite things. Every poster hung on my walls, I had every record and from Alive 2 on I got the new records the day they came out....i was in high school 87-91 so Motley girls, girls, girls, Kiss Crazy Nights, Poison Look what cat dragged in and Open Up were huge, Hysteria, Ratt Detonator, GNR Appetite, Skid Row debut, Metallica and justice for all, and Dr Feelgood by Motley, and Alice Cooper Trash were all some of the new albums my friends and I jammed.....but Kiss has always remained high at the top for me by themselves!!! Great video!

And ....lol I saw Kiss live in all eras and by far my favorite stage production is the final leg 19th to the last show ever on October 29 2023!!! Austin , Texas an absolute incredible show. Paul sang live on the tour with backing tracks to help fill in the sound of his voice. Been in stage production and sound my life....however in Austin he gave it a go with very little support and Dec 2 he let it loose best he could live. Even songs he used to rely on help he sang live. I think his very last one it was important to him to go out that way. For 72 almost and just getting over being really sick I thought he did good as possible. Love to see what the future holds with the new era now that they are done playing. Thank you so much for reading my fuckn novels lol and good luck with Accident (great band name by the way) I would love to hear your stuff!!! Happy Holidays

So right about nobody hates them more than the fans! I feel all sorts of torn. I always thought they ranked chronologically until whenever Gene gave up acting? Maybe 1991? 1990? 1989? Then they seemed to be excited to meet fans and see boobs again as a group of 4. In hindsight I rank them 1.KISS 2.Hotter than Hell 3.Dressed to Kill 4.revenge 5. Carnival of Souls. Only time the band was a 4piece band. The rest of my list doesn’t matter because the point has been made.

I don't hate Tommy and Eric, they're doing what is asked of them. I simply wish they had either gone without the makeup or come up with their designs for their time in the band. Much like Vincent and Carr had when they first joined. I really wish they had brought Ace/Peter back for one show or even just Rock and Roll all Nite on the last show. I think it would have been a proper send off for the band. As far as your ranking goes, quite surprising to me but I respect your opinion. Don't recall seeing Lick it Up though.

Brother you have got one healthy head of hair. Enjoy it. Carnival of Souls WAS a filler album for the time. Obviously Gene and Paul were grasping for musical relevance in the waning days of grunge. The Elder to this day is an unrealized possibility, no tour and 'World Without Hero's' is still one of the weakest KISS songs put to radio. Unmasked is where hardcore KISS fans of the 70s lost interest, especially no tour in North America. The Asylum tour had three different stages, and oddly the Animalize tour never came east of Winnipeg in Canada. I'm partial to Love Gun as that was my 1st rock concert in my life back in '77. I'm impressed by a young guy choosing Dressed to Kill and Hotter Than Hell as his top KISS albums in his collection. Well done.

Kiss only has 20 studio albums not 24. The 4 solo albums are not Kiss albums.

I count them as KISS albums, they came out while all members were in the band, have the KISS logo on them and are on Casablanca.

I Finally Found My Way To You may be schlock but I think Read My Body is the worst. Such a blatant, shameless Def Leppard ripoff. Half of Hot In The Shade is really good in my opinion, but the other half is straight dog shit. In any case, nice list- a little unusual. The debut tops my list and HITS brings up the rear. I find it hard to make a definitive list because my mood shifts from time to time but I could definitely do a tier list. I don't really hate any album per se but some of them will just never make it out of C Tier- y'know?
