Hers a list from a true Kiss fan....
Iv been contemplating doing this for awhile, and I know people will judge it. But these are by far the best from THE HOTTEST BAND IN THE WORLD. Kiss pretty much taught me how to play guitar...Aces influence on me has been GIGANTIC...I remember gettin the internet and printing out EVERY kiss songs guitar tabs and learning how to fluently read tabs, and picked up on where to play in what keys....

5. Creatures of the Night
Ace was featured on the cover, although he had NOTHING todo with this album...Vinnie Vincent had finally done what Ace had wanted todo all along....Kiss was FINALLY starting to get heavy!~
Definitly the heaviest drums on a Kiss album thanks to Eric Carr, and the start of the HUNDRED-NOTE-GUITAR-SOLOS that kiss would be know for through the 80s....
Every song on here is stellar...no Filler
Track listing:
1. "Creatures of the Night" Paul Stanley, Adam Mitchell 4:02
The title track that was used as the show opener was definitly something new for kiss fans when it came out...Kiss was actually starting to sound alot like Motley Crue or old-school ozzy...Very riff oriented music
2. "Saint and Sinner" Gene Simmons, Mikel Japp 4:50
I personally think this is the heaviest kiss song EVER...Balls to the wall rockin!~
Even the bass stands out....
3. "Keep Me Comin'" Stanley, Mitchell 3:55
I always loved the riff to this tune....and Pauls vocals are sexy ;)
The breakdown before the solo is awesome...alittle woahwoah for paul!~
4. "Rock and Roll Hell" Simmons, Bryan Adams, Jim Vallance 4:11
Alot of people think ths song was written about Ace Frehley and his departture from the band:
"He's on the edge, he can feel it in his heart, this time the pressure's really on","This time tomorrow he'll be gone","There ain't nobody gonna tell him what to do",----But believe it or not its more like a cover...Check out:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7kc8X9rv-M
FUCKIN BTO@!~ Still a good tune tho....
5. "Danger" Stanley, Mitchell 3:54
Probably the weakest song on the album, but it has a KILLER guitar solo, and a really crazy upbeat tempo
6. "I Love It Loud" Simmons, Vinnie Vincent 4:15
Genes big tune from the album, ONE OF HIS BEST, fuckin classic kiss!~
7. "I Still Love You" Stanley, Vincent 6:06
LUV THIS SONG!~ One of my favorite ballads by kiss...and its THUNDEROUS im telling you!
Crank this shit, and youll hear true Paul Stanley talent....
8. "Killer" Simmons, Vincent 3:19
Awesome "80s" song for sure.....
9. "War Machine" Simmons, Adams, Vallance 4:14
HUUUUGE RIFF!~ Heavy as fuck, for kiss at least...awesome way to wrap up an album

HUUUUGE RIFF!~ Heavy as fuck, for kiss at least...awesome way to wrap up an album
4. Love Gun
Classic kiss...the first album to feature vocals by ACE FREHLEY...came out at the peak of their success...and probably one of the truest "Rock and Roll" albums they have released. You can hear 60s rock & roll influence through many of the tracks...
Track listing
1. "I Stole Your Love" Paul Stanley 3:04
WICKED album intro...badass riff with badass lyrics!~
I always loved the shot of this tune in the movie Detroit Rocks City...fuckin epic
2. "Christine Sixteen" Gene Simmons 3:14
Another song about Gene and younger girls lol
Classic kiss... that piano riff makes the song
3. "Got Love for Sale" Simmons 3:29
Reminds me of Hendrix actually...the background singers sound reminicant of "Cross town Traffic"
4. "Shock Me" Ace Frehley 3:49
Aces first vocals, and an EPIC guitar solo...the live versions even better....best song off the album by far
5. "Tomorrow and Tonight" Stanley 3:40
Heres a tune thats chalked fulla that old-school rock feeling I was talkin earlier.
Such a party song...using the ROCK & ROLL ALL NIGHT formula
6. "Love Gun" Stanley 3:18
Heres a staple kiss song....awesome lyrics, riff and solo!~
7. "Hooligan" Peter Criss, Stan Penridge 3:01
Great PETER CRISS tune...I love his voice....raspy and screamin
8. "Almost Human" Simmons 2:49
Cool intro with the gong....
Gene writing another "God of Thunder"? Decent song, weakest on the album I think
9. "Plaster Caster" Simmons Simmons 3:27
SEX SEX SEX ;)
I remember singin tis song in grade 7 LOL
10. "Then She Kissed Me" Jeff Barry, Ellie Greenwich, Phil Spector 3:02
This song was originally recorded by the famed Brooklyn female vocal group The Crystals.
Always like this tune...one of my first songs I ever learnt on guitar!~
3.Hotter than Hell
kiss' second album, the recording of it is kinda muffled, but still ESSENTIAL kiss. Half of their first live album was taken from Hotter Than Hell, and lots of em are still played live to this day.
Track listing
1. "Got to Choose" Paul Stanley 3:54
I always love the UNPLUGGED-RARE version of this song. Good album opener
2. "Parasite" Ace Frehley 3:02
Another Ace-written song, sang by Gene....one of Aces most popular guitar riffs...staccato!~
3. "Goin' Blind" Simmons, Stephen Coronel Simmons 3:37
Weakest point on the album...going blind is lame...thanks Gene ;(
4. "Hotter Than Hell" Stanley 3:30
"LETS GET THIS PLACE HOTTER THAN HELL"
Wicked song, wicked lyrics......ture kiss track
5. "Let Me Go, Rock 'n' Roll" Stanley, Simmons 2:15
Totaly rockin guyitar riff...the extended version they do live has an awesome extended solo...
One of my all-time fav kiss songs
6. "All the Way" Simmons 3:18
Good tune.....catchy chours
7. "Watchin' You" Simmons 3:44
I always thought this song should be in a horror movie...
Cool riff, makes ya wanna dance
8. "Mainline" Stanley Peter 3:50
Another song sang by Peter Criss...COWBELL!~
9. "Comin' Home" Frehley, Stanley 2:38
I think Comin Home is one of Kiss' most underrated songs...rockin tune bout life on the road missin your honey
10. "Strange Ways" Frehley Criss 3:18
The wrap -up song....sounds evil to me ;)
One of Aces strangest solos....definitly some weird effect on their

2. ROCK AND ROLL OVER
Iv always had a soft spot for this album...one of my ALL TIME favorites!~
The classic kiss lineups BEST album...With a more direct, IN-YOUR-FACE production, Rock and Roll Over is one of Kiss' most consistent records. Two of the album's best tracks became hit singles -- the sleazy hard rocker "Calling Dr. Love" and an acoustic ballad that was originally intended for Rod Stewart, "Hard Luck Woman" (later covered by country star Garth Brooks). I was gunna have this album at #1, but it fell just short....
Track listing
1. "I Want You" Paul Stanley 3:04
Starts the album off all slow...then BAM!~ Awesome solo, and end chorus
2. "Take Me" Stanley, Sean Delaney 2:56
I love this riff. "Put your hand in my pocket....Grab onto my rocket....Feels so good to see you receive" FUCKIN HOTT
3. "Calling Dr. Love" Simmons 3:44
Huge hit off the album, one of the best known kiss songs, heard it wayyyy too many times
Another "Love" song from Gene
4. "Ladies Room" Simmons 3:27
Heres a classic rock tune if there ever was one!~ Loved the live version...
5. "Baby Driver" Peter Criss, Stan Penridge 3:40
One of my fav songs sang by Peter Criss...I remember learning it on guitar ages ago...ONE CHORD!~
6. "Love 'Em and Leave 'Em" Simmons 3:47
Great song!~ One of Aces best guitar solos too...ONE HANDED!~
7. "Mr. Speed" Stanley, Delaney 3:18
I dont think its really good to be fast in bed LMAO
Good tune tho ;)
8. "See You in Your Dreams" Simmons 2:34
Song always reminds me of delivering papers in the fuckin freezing cold at 5am saturday mornings...I listened to the album over and over again on cassett
9. "Hard Luck Woman" Stanley 3:34
Just listened to it and forgot how much I loved this song....great tune!~
I honestly think Peter shoulda sang vocals over Gene...he has a wayyy better voice
10. "Makin' Love" Stanley, Delaney 3:14
BEST TUNE ON THE ALBUM!~ Crank that shit!~ The solo is insain!~
WICKED LIVE TOO!~

WICKED LIVE TOO!~
1. REVENGE!~
Definitly the most solid album KISS has done...EVERY track is phenominal. Sadly Eric Carr never got to perform on it (besides his drum solo) due to cancer.
I think they actually put lots of effort into writing these songs and the production of the tunes shows...huge harmonies and CRAZY guitar solos!~
Track listing
1. "Unholy" Gene Simmons, Vinnie Vincent 3:40
Probably kiss' most evil riff....Gene starts the album off with a song that 20 years earlier woulda geave them a reason to be called Knights in Satans Service
2. "Take It Off" Paul Stanley, Bob Ezrin, Kane Roberts 4:50
Fuckin rippers!~ "Well my mind is gettin' dirty, yeah around eleven thirty, uh huh
I wanna watch some asses shakin', to the noise the boys are makin', uh huh
Ooh, so I hop into my car, hit the local titty bar, uh huh
'Cause that's my kind of situation,when I need some perspiration, uh huh
LUV IT LIVE TOO!~ WICKED
3. "Tough Love" Stanley, Bruce Kulick, Ezrin 3:44
Highlight of the song: Kulicks guitar solo...he nailed em on this album, even without his fancy pants frett tapping
4. "Spit" Simmons, Scott Van Zen, Stanley 3:32
Alittle duet from Gene n Paul....anothe great sex song with a huge tribute to JIMI HENDRIX guitar solo ;)
5. "God Gave Rock 'N' Roll to You II" Russ Ballard, Stanley, Simmons, Ezrin 5:18
A remade version of an old tune.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsG5V-o6uxY
True meaning of rock and roll...."Man you gotta sweat, or you wont get far"
The video is an awesome tribute to Eric Carr as well
6. "Domino" Simmons 4:01
One of my favorite Gene Simmons songs, nice breakdown part in the middle
Harddrivin bass!~
7. "Heart of Chrome" Stanley, Vincent, Ezrin 4:02
I cant imagine even trying to write a chous like this...Paul Stanley in the round...crazyyy
8. "Thou Shalt Not" Simmons, Jesse Damon Simmons 3:59
Another angry Gene song, guess its better than Cadillac dreams lmao
Weak point of the album
9. "Every Time I Look at You" Stanley, Ezrin 4:38
Beuatiful kiss song....sometimes ya just gotta put shit down on an acoustic...Epic guitar solo
10. "Paralyzed" Simmons, Ezrin 4:14
Good rockin tune.....upbeat and in your face!~ Nice jam in the middle...
11. "I Just Wanna" Stanley, Vincent 4:07
I just wanna FUH you!~ One of Pauls best songs...notice how Vinnie Vincent still shows his face in the song writing credits? Awesome melodic middle section ;)
12. "Carr Jam 1981" Eric Carr (instrumental) 2:4
Originally recorded with Ace Frehleys guitar...they overdubbed it with Bruce, but left us with what matters...THE BEATS...WE MISS YOU ERIC!~
Wicked drum solo for a studio take....
