Kiss – Rock and Roll Over – 1976
If you have the previous album – Destroyer, from the same year in mind, Rock and Roll Over becomes a massive disappointment. There are no distinctly outstanding songs, and everything becomes a bit of a mess. In fact, I almost felt a bit irritated towards the end of Rock and Roll Over, hoping it would be over soon! It’s strange because it’s essentially the same type of music that Kiss delivered before, but here, it just became too much! No progress forward (rather a step back after Bob Ezrin’s involvement on the previous album) makes it mediocre and a bit dull to my ears.
As usual, Gene, Paul, and Peter share the microphone, and that’s actually quite unique, isn’t it? I don’t know any other band that has done it that way, at least!
