Advantages: 10 good song's that rock till the end!, Out of 10 song's Vinnie Vincent co wrote 8., Some brilliant guitar solo's! Go Vinnie Go!

Disadvantages: Kiss never had a live album with this line up!, Eric Carr who plays drums on this album sadly passed away, Gene Simmons,Paul Stanley fell out with Vinnie Vincent & still battle over royalties from this album..

Its 1983 & this album was the first one by Kiss after they unmasked,With the hit single Lick It Up they were back!! This was also the first album to feature Vinnie Vincent (He was quoted once for saying he played on Creatures of the night but neither him or Ace Frehley did) With 10 songs of pure heavy rock this is a must for any Kiss fan, The album starts off with a song that could have come from Music from the Elder album called Exciter,its a good song where you can hear Kiss becoming more heavy metal as apossed to classic rock. Vinnies guitar work on this song & the whole album is a complete change of style from Ace's ( Ace still rules ).Not For The Innocent is sung by Gene & is a steady rockin song that builds to a good whammy bar solo.Lick It Up is a good song that up untill Kiss reformed they still played. Young & Wasted,Gimme More really kick ass(TURN IT UP TO 11!)All Hells Breakin Lose sounds abit like a rap song with heavy guitar work (maybe Kiss saw into the future of rock music?)A Million To One is a typical Paul Stanley ballard. Fits Like A Glove is a song where you can hear Gene scream his heart out(or tounge)while Vinnie attacks his guitar soloing.Dance All Over Your Face says it all really its one of Gene's lol.And On The 8th Day is a brilliant song about good old heavy metal,rock'n'roll call it what you will?...On The 8th Day God Created KISS!!!
