Kiss Carnival Of Souls: The Final Sessions CD

List All Reviews

 KISS gets deep...Real Deep (No pun intended).
If you are considering getting Carnival of Souls, you probably have a lot of KISS's other works and are looking to complete your collection. That being said, should you buy COS? That depends. If you are looking for more party music to cheer you up, well, this isn't the album for you. A lot of people criticize KISS for doing songs that mostly focus on sex and partying, and frankly, that's what they excel at, in a loud, fun and hard rockin' way. I really don't have a problem with that because they are very talented at it, and quite frankly, there are a lot worse topics that a person could sing about. Most times that I listen to music, I'm looking for an escape from the mundane problems and dramas of reality. So, KISS fills that void for me perfectly. But when I finally got around to buying COS and listened to it, I was floored by how really good it is. Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Eric Singer, and Bruce Kulick really made a touching and beautiful album when they recorded these songs. The playing by all is amazingly good, and the range of singing by Gene, and especially Paul are outstanding. So if you are ready to listen to something more mature and moody from KISS, look no further, this is the album for you.
