New_World_Man Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 The Elder is a great album, the last Kiss album I really like. Those 4 songs on Killers are great as well. Killers? I thought that was an Iron Maiden album. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbine Freight Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I love Music From The Elder. I play it quite a bit too not just now & then. In a way I like it even more as it gets derided so much. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But assuming that's accurate and you also don't already know, you'll be interested to know that the band recorded an album 1985. Which makes them one greater than Van Halen, though still 117 lesser than Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRogers Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I was 14 when Music From The Elder came out, and at that point, I had been a KISS fanatic for 6+ years .. At that point, Eric Carr had just joined the band, and KISS was coming off their first tour of Australia - a tour in which they introduced Carr and his double bass kit and heavier style ... Coming off Dynasty in 1979 ( I Was Made For Loving you ) and Unmasked in 1980, KISS had made it clear that the next album was going to be a return to their heavy rock and roll sound .. The shows in Australia saw KISS bringing back a lot of the ALIVE! era songs into the set, and with all those things lined up, KISS fans were hoping for a return to the heavy KISS .. Especially considering that since their last good/heavy album - Love Gun - seemed a distant memory in 1977 .. By that point KISS had lost a lot of their original fans and most of those remaining were young -- I was 14, and the days of the big kids who drove the 1972 Dusters and Barracudas who liked KISS were over ... It was kids my age and younger .... I admit that I was disappointed when I first heard it ... It was also disappointing because here you had a new, heavy drummer - a kid who was younger, or at least appeared to be - and they didn;t put him to good use ... And it proved to be the final album for Ace, as he thought the entire things was ridiculous ... I like the album now ... I don;t know if I would call it a great album - it has some very cool moments and songs, and I appreciate what they were trying to do more now than when I was 14 .... Only You/Under The Rose, The Oath and Mr Blackwell are my favorites, and I think each one of those songs are excellent . .Bonus points for muscle era Mopar reference.

Wil1972 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Elder is a good album but maybe not a good KISS album... It's just so far outside of their wheelhouse. Kind of like Yes doing a Love Gun. It is strangely attractive though. Most of the material is solid, although "Odyssey" is dreadful. If "I" had been on any other makeup-era KISS album it would be hailed as a KISS classic. Edited January 2, 2019 by Wil1972 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
