The Kousins talk about the symphonic KISS live album, "Symphony- Alive IV." It is the curtain call for Peter in the band, even though it was his third pass through. At times it is bombastic, subtle, cool. There are a few tunes that we hadn't gotten live either in a while or ever. The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Melbourne Children's Choir helped fill the aural plane. A decent live album, but where did it rank with the Kousins?

The Kousins talk about the very first KISS live album, "Alive!"

This could arguably be called KISS' most important album. Without the success of "Rock and Roll All Nite" and this album in general, Casablanca Records and most likely the band would have ceased to exist.

It's powerful. It's bombastic. It's worth a "Deuce" because it's "Hotter Than Hell."

The Kousins talk about the KISS's tenth studio album, "Creatures of the Night."

Holding the distinction of perhaps the best cover ever on a KISS album, this album set out to right the wrongs of the prior three albums. It was heavy and hard, but there were secrets.

With this album was it "I Love It Loud" or "Rock and Roll Hell?"

The Kousins talk about the KISS's sixteenth studio album, Revenge.

It was produced by Bob Ezrin, who at this point wasn't coked out. KISS was righting the ship that had veered a bit, especially after the loss of their backbone, Eric Carr.

It was heavy, a precursor of the album that would follow. It's "Unholy."

Do you dig it? Was it "I Just Wanna" or "Thou Shalt Not?"

The Kousins talk about the KISS's much-maligned, possibly conciliatory seventeenth studio album, "Carnival Of Souls."

One of us really loved it and the other two totally agreed with him.

The album is totally misunderstood and had it not been for a sneaky leak, it may never have seen the light of day. It's hard, very hard. It's heavy, like tons.

Is it a KISS album in name only?

Tell us your thoughts.

Do you think it's "In My Head?" Do you "Hate" it? Or just think that "It Never Goes Away?"

The Kousins talk about the KISS's eighth studio album, "Unmasked."

This was the last to SHOW Peter Criss on the cover, although, he played nary a drum lick on the album. It's poppy, it's polarizing.

The Kousins go song-by-song. Do we love it? Do we hate it?

If you've not listened to the podcast, or this album before, "come on, get your feet wet!"

Perhaps one of us thinks this is "What Makes the World Go 'Round."
