KISS finally achieved mainstream success in 1975 with Alive!, but their next studio album had to be big, and just six months later, the band roared back with Destroyer.
KISS kicked off their “End of the Road” farewell tour last night (January 31) in Vancouver with a 20-song setlist that spanned a surprising amount of their catalog.
Fun fact about 1979: A bunch of amazing albums came out that year! With 2019 upon us, these 10 albums will be celebrating their 40th anniversary. Honestly, they sound just as fantastic as did when they were released.
Hear that loud “MEOW!” sound? No, it’s not the Catman; it’s actually Starchild (aka: Paul Stanley) answering why the recently announced KISS farewell tour is really the band’s goodbye, despite their farewell tour in 2000.
Many bands having dove head first into the realms of merchandising and branding, but leave it to KISS to remind us all that if you want the best in band experiences, you got the best.
