12"

First re-release on picture disc of the debut full-length solo album by the bassist and co-vocalist of legendary American Hard Rock/Glam Rock band Kiss.
It was one of four solo albums released by the members of Kiss on September 18, 1978.
Although he is the bass player in Kiss, Simmons played mainly electric and acoustic guitars on the album, leaving the bass duties to Neil Jason. The album features guest appearances from well-known musicians, including Aerosmith's Joe Perry, Bob Seger, Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen, Donna Summer and Cher. Though unknown at the time, backing vocalist Katey Sagal would go on to a successful television career.
Most Kiss fans associate Gene Simmons with the band's hardest-rocking compositions; after all, he's responsible for such heavies as "Watchin' You", "Calling Dr. Love", "Larger Than Life" and "Goin' Blind". So many Kiss fans must have been surprised when they heard this Gene's diverse solo album, with songs that contained choirs and string arrangements, plus elements of Beatles pop, '70s Funk/Disco and feel-good Rock & Roll. Granted, there are a few heavy rockers (such as the single "Radioactive", "Burning Up With Fever" and "See You in Your Dreams"), but Simmons was always a closet Beatles fan, as evidenced by "See You Tonite", "Always Near You", "Man of 1,000 Faces" and "Mr. Make Believe".
Simmons re-recorded "See You in Your Dreams" because he reportedly was not happy with the way it was recorded on "Rock and Roll Over". The only real misstep is a preposterously embarrassing cover of the Disney classic "When You Wish Upon a Star" (complete with Disney-esque sound effects/music). Simmons said that he covered "When You Wish Upon a Star" because he related to the song and was a fan of Disney movies. But Simmons made sure that the top artists of the day lent a hand (Aerosmith's Joe Perry, Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen, Donna Summer, Cher, Bob Seger, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, Helen Reddy, and Janis Ian), which makes Gene's solo album an unpredictable yet ultimately enjoyable release.
The album reached #22 on the US Billboard album chart, making it the highest-placing of all the four Kiss solos of 1978. It was certified Platinum on October 2, 1978, having shipped 1000000 copies.

40th Anniversary re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary American Horror/Glam/Hard Rock band.
Much of the material on the album was written by Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, as members of their pre-KISS band Wicked Lester. With the exception of "Kissin' Time", all of the material for "Kiss" was written before the band entered the studio. Some of the songs were written during Wicked Lester's brief existence, while "Firehouse" was written by Paul Stanley, when he was attending the High School of Music & Art in New York City.

Despite the band's promoting and touring, "Kiss" sold approximately 75 000 copies after its initial release without the presence of a hit single. It was certified Gold on June 8, 1977, having shipped 500 000 copies. The album was re-released in 1997 (along with most of KISS' earlier albums) in a remastered version.
Gene Simmons has said that the 1974 self-titled is his favorite KISS album.

The eleventh full-length studio album by legendary American Glam/Hard Rock band.
The band’s first non-makeup album and the first to achieve certification since 1980s "Unmasked". This is partially attributable to the increased publicity the band received after their unmasking. Prior to its 1983 release, the band members appeared on MTV without their trademark makeup. It was the first public appearance without makeup by the band since their very early days, and their first for Mercury Records, where they had been signed following their departure from Casablanca Records.
"Lick It Up" built upon the harder sound Kiss had displayed on 1982's "Creatures Of The Night". 
Vinnie Vincent again proved to be a worthy replacement to original guitarist Ace Frehley. For the first time, Vinnie Vincent appeared on the cover art for the album, whereas Ace Frehley had appeared on the "Creatures Of The Night" cover, despite having already left the band and not being involved in the recording of the album. Vincent was not legally a member of the band. Due partly to disputes over what his role in the band and his pay would be (some reports indicated that he had asked for, and was flatly denied, a percentage of the band's gross profits), Vincent never signed any contract making his employment official. These disputes, along with a growing attitude by him that he was solely responsible for the resurgence of KISS, would lead to him leaving the band (or being fired, depending on the source) after the European leg of the Lick It Up tour.
"Lick It Up" successfully re-established the band among the Heavy Metal masses worldwide. KISS also reconnected with their stateside fans. The album's success was spurred by MTV's repeated airing of the imaginative video for the album's strong title track, and songs such as "Exciter", "Not for the Innocent", "A Million to One", and the Rap-Rocker "All Hell's Breaking Loose", confirmed that the band was back on the right track.
"Lick It Up" was certified Platinum on December 19, 1990. It was placed at #10 on Guitar World's Readers Poll of the Top-10 Guitar Albums of 1983. Kerrang! Magazine listed "Lick It Up" #3 on its list of the best Hard Rock albums in 1983.
The album marked a turnaround in the band's flagging fortunes during the previous several years and successfully introduced them to a new generation of fans, as well as marking the beginning of the "unmasked" era that would last for the next decade. "Lick It Up" is undoubtedly KISS' best non-makeup album!

Remastered re-release of the sixth full-length studio album by legendary American Horror/Glam/Hard Rock band.
Before "Love Gun" was completed, a Gallup poll indicated that KISS was the most popular band in the United States, beating Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin and the Eagles. “Love Gun” was released on June 30, 1977. Casablanca Records and FilmWorks shipped 1 000 000 copies of the album on this date.
It was bands first album to feature a lead vocal performance from Ace Frehley, making it the first KISS album to feature lead vocal performances from all four band members. It was also the last studio album to feature Peter Criss on every song, as he was replaced by session drummer Anton Fig for all but one song on 1979's "Dynasty". "Love Gun" was certified Platinum on June 30, 1977.

The ninth full-length studio album by legendary American Glam/Hard Rock band.
“Music From The Elder” marked a substantial departure from band's previous output, "Unmasked", with its epic concept and orchestral elements: its sales were so poor that Kiss did not embark on a supporting tour for the first time in its eight-year history, opting instead to make a handful of promotional appearances. In an effort to return to their Hard Rock roots, KISS began recording music more akin to the Hard Rock style that launched them to popularity in the mid-1970s. But at the same time, Simmons, Stanley, and creative manager Bill Aucoin felt that just returning to a harder sound was not enough. They believed that only a bold, artistic statement would regenerate public interest in KISS. To that end, they enlisted producer Bob Ezrin to work with the band, who, in turn, employed members from the American Symphony Orchestra and St. Robert's Choir to record tracks for the album. Ezrin had worked with the band before, producing their hit 1976 album "Destroyer". He had also co-produced Pink Floyd's 1979 concept album "The Wall". Simmons, Stanley, and Aucoin felt that Ezrin could help bring their ambitions to fruition. Most participants in the album's recording admit that it was a major misstep for KISS. Ezrin, despite his recent success with the even more ambitious "Wall" album, admitted that his judgments concerning "Music From The Elder" were clouded due in large part to a cocaine addiction at the time. Stanley and Simmons admit that they were "delusional" concerning the project, while Frehley has stated that he felt that it was not a good idea to begin with.
"Music From The Elder" was the first album with drummer Eric Carr and the last album to feature Ace Frehley, until their 1996 reunion Alive Worldwide Tour, apart from appearing on the cover of the compilation album "Killers" and the next album, "Creatures Of The Night", as well as a handful of promotional appearances with the band until late 1982.
Despite the general negative feelings towards this album, it has garnered some occasional praise in recent years. In 2011, the American website Guitar World mentioned the album among their "50 Great Albums Celebrating Their 30th Anniversary" in 2011, while the Brazilian Roadie Crew Magazine did likewise in a list of "The 81 Greatest Albums of 1981". Later, in 2017, Roadie Crew rank it among their "Greatest 40 Concept Albums Ever" at #22. In 2016, Classic Rock Magazine ranked the album among a list of "The 20 Most Underrated Classic Rock Albums Ever". In 2018, the French edition of the Rock Hard Magazine included it in the Volume 2 of its "Ideal Metaltheque", in the concept albums category. There are rumours that "The Elder" has sold around 500 000 copies, however, this has yet to be substantiated by any official audit, and has not been certified Gold as of 2018.

First re-release on picture disc of the debut full-length solo album the drummer of legendary American Hard Rock/Glam Rock band Kiss.
It was one of four solo albums released by the members of Kiss on September 18, 1978. The album was produced by Vini Poncia, who went on to produce the Kiss albums "Dynasty" (1979) and "Unmasked" (1980). Criss covered "Tossin' and Turnin'", which was a #1 hit for Bobby Lewis in the U.S. during the summer of 1961. The song was subsequently covered by Kiss on their 1979 tour. Much of the material on the album was originally written in 1971 for Criss's pre-Kiss band Lips.
At the peak of their popularity in 1978, Kiss decided to maximize their sales potential and exploit their loyal audience by having each member release a solo record on the same day. Instead of sending sales through the roof, it had the unexpected effect of stopping their momentum cold. It wasn't because the market was flooded with Kiss product - although it certainly was, since they released nine albums, including two double-live records and a compilation, in the course of four years - it was because the albums were, for the most part, terrible. Peter Criss' effort was one of the most undistinguished of the bunch, lacking hooks on the Pop-Metal rockers or the power ballads, as well as personality throughout. Even Kiss fans will have a hard time making their way through this record, or any of the other solo albums.
The album was the lowest charting of all the Kiss solo albums of 1978, reaching #43 on the US Billboard album chart. Of the four solo albums, "Peter Criss" was the only album to have two singles released from it: "Don't You Let Me Down" and "You Matter to Me".

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary American Horror/Glam/Hard Rock band.
“Rock And Roll Over” was recorded at the Star Theatre, and in order to get the proper drum sound, Peter Criss recorded the drum tracks in a bathroom, communicating via video-link with the rest of the band. Criss' vocals are featured on the tracks "Baby Driver" and "Hard Luck Woman". Paul Stanley, who originally wanted the latter song to be sung by Rod Stewart, gave it to Criss, after Gene Simmons insisted Criss sing the song instead.
Although "Hard Luck Woman" did not equal the success of "Beth", it did become another top 20 Single for KISS. "Calling Dr. Love" became a concert staple. This is the first KISS album to not feature a writing credit from Ace Frehley.
KISS is one of the best-selling bands of all the time, having sold more than 75 000 000 records worldwide, including 25 000 000 RIAA-certified albums. KISS also holds the title as America's #1 Gold record award-winning band of all time, having earned 30 Gold albums. The band has 14 Platinum albums, with three albums being multi-Platinum. On April 10, 2014, the four original members of KISS were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

"Rock And Roll Over" peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard 200 and was certified Platinum in the USA by RIAA for 1 000 000 copies sold.

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary American Horror/Glam/Hard Rock band.
“Rock And Roll Over” was recorded at the Star Theatre, and in order to get the proper drum sound, Peter Criss recorded the drum tracks in a bathroom, communicating via video-link with the rest of the band. Criss' vocals are featured on the tracks "Baby Driver" and "Hard Luck Woman". Paul Stanley, who originally wanted the latter song to be sung by Rod Stewart, gave it to Criss, after Gene Simmons insisted Criss sing the song instead.
Although "Hard Luck Woman" did not equal the success of "Beth", it did become another top 20 Single for KISS. "Calling Dr. Love" became a concert staple. This is the first KISS album to not feature a writing credit from Ace Frehley.
KISS is one of the best-selling bands of all the time, having sold more than 75 000 000 records worldwide, including 25 000 000 RIAA-certified albums. KISS also holds the title as America's #1 Gold record award-winning band of all time, having earned 30 Gold albums. The band has 14 Platinum albums, with three albums being multi-Platinum. On April 10, 2014, the four original members of KISS were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. KISS was ranked by MTV as the ninth "Greatest Metal Band of All Time", and placed tenth on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock" list, as well as being ranked as the third "Best Metal and Hard Rock Live Band of All Time" by Loudwire.
"Rock And Roll Over" peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard 200 and was certified Platinum in the USA by RIAA for 1 000 000 copies sold.

The eighth full-length studio album by legendary American Horror/Glam/Pop Rock band.
“Unmasked” features substantial songwriting contributions from Vini Poncia, who had previously been Ringo Starr's post-Beatles songwriting partner. The album marked the first time KISS had used the contributions of outside songwriters to such a large extent, as all tracks except two of the Frehley contributions, "Talk to Me" and "Two Sides of the Coin", were written or co-written by someone outside the band. Despite being credited, Peter Criss had no involvement with the recording of the album; Anton Fig played all the drums uncredited. The band filmed a promotional video for "Shandi" with Criss. It was the last time he appeared with KISS until he performed with them at a "Kiss Convention" on June 17, 1995. Criss was fired from the band in May 1980 due to his erratic behaviour.

The album got a Gold certification from the RIAA two months after its launch, although it was the first KISS album not to obtain the certification of Platinum since "Destroyer" (1976). Meanwhile, in Europe and Oceania, KISS maintained its popularity; "Unmasked" topped the charts in Norway and New Zealand, and reached the top 5 in Australia, Austria, Germany, and the Netherlands. The band decided to take a break from the U.S., and Kiss played in Australia, England, New Zealand, Sweden, Netherlands, Norway, Denmark, Germany, France, and Italy.

The sixth full-length studio album by German Melodic Hard Rock/Glam Metal band.
Kissin’ Dynamite is one of the strongest names among new generation. “Ecstasy” is another excellent work of them. This album brings their main style in a simple and straight format, being a bit more commercially accessible to a broader public.
The sound quality is perfect. It’s clear in the way their music needs to sound alive and comprehensible, but heavy and aggressive as their musical personality demands. They have chosen exceptional instrumental tunes that improve their songs even more. Musically, the quintet is mature and experienced, using some magnificent musical arrangements that are really charming. The album is full of hooks and catchy hard rock songs, and feels more melodic than their earlier efforts. You won’t find weak spots on “Ecstasy”.
With this album, Kissin’ Dynamite becomes able to face some giants of Glam Metal, so be prepared to be hooked by “Ecstasy”!
Recommended for fans of Bon Jovi and Pretty Maids!!

The fourteenth full-length studio album by legendary American Nu Metal band.
Roaring back after the grief and bloodletting of 2019's "The Nothing", metal veterans Korn add yet another highlight to their late-era renaissance with their 14th set. The intense, focused assault is as simple and no-frills as can be, a slim nine tracks of introspection, growth, and, shockingly, a faint sense of optimism.
Recorded during the COVID-19 lockdown, the band found themselves with no deadlines, no label pressure, and plenty of time to simply record as a full unit (even though founding bassist Fieldy was on hiatus for personal reasons, his basslines are still here). With that space, they tapped into something that's a rarity on a Korn album: setting sights on hope and healing. The hit of serotonin for longtime fans is an absolute joy.
Against the odds, Korn have done it again with "Requiem", a quick and ferocious blast that finds the band still hungry and innovative nearly 30 years into the game.
"Start the Healing", the first single off the album, peaked No. 1 on the Mediabase Active Rock chart on February 7, 2022.
"Requiem" debuted at number fourteen on the US Billboard 200 with 23 500 album-equivalent units, of which 20 000 were pure album sales. It is Korn's first album since 1994 to not peak Top-10. As of the end of 2022, the album has sold over 90 000 traditional copies in the US, and over 110 000 copies worldwide. In Australia, the album peaked No. 1 for the first time since 2002. The album debuted worldwide in 31 total countries, debuting No. 1 in 7 countries, receiving phenomenal success Internationally.
