One of KISS' best albums, 1974's HOTTER THAN HELL brought us KISS' second release. It sounds like grunge even before it's time.
A masterpiece of work.
Some of my favorites:
PARASITE GOIN' BLIND (Ace Frehley delivers an excellent solo; while Simmons pens a wonderful, dark song.) LET ME GO, ROCK AND ROLL (Another great song where KISS goes straight to their roots, plain old ROCK AND ROLL.) WATCHIN' YOU STRANGE WAYS (Frehley rights another great song, sounds dark, with excellent guitar work.)
