Album 365: Day 42 - KISS - Destroyer

Kiss
Destroyer
1976














Favorite tracks: King of the Night Time World, Shout It Out Loud, Beth
Sleeper tracks: God of Thunder, Sweet Pain

(I just finished Peter Criss' autobiography.  I thought it would be fitting to honor him with an Album: 365 entry)

I can't remember when I first heard this album.  I do know that my first introduction to KISS was from my uncle Bill.  He is 10 years older than me and was the perfect influence for a lot of the music I grew up with.

I always thought "God of Thunder" was lame.  Maybe I'm still bitter at Gene for being a major prick to Ace and Peter.

I Rock N Roll Over way better than Destroyer.  However, I dig this album for the impact it had on the legacy of KISS and the impact it had on rock music.
