Description

Monster by KISS is the band’s 20th studio album, arriving in 2012 after the late-career return of Sonic Boom. Recorded with the lineup of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer, and Eric Singer, it finds the group leaning into hard rock without outside songwriters.

Lead single “Hell or Hallelujah” sets the pace with a direct, riff-driven charge, while “Wall of Sound” and “Long Way Down” keep the focus on big guitars and clipped, arena-sized choruses. “All for the Love of Rock & Roll” gives Eric Singer a turn at the mic before the album closes on the punchy “Last Chance.” Available here on vinyl.
