The greatest misstep in Kiss's career, and yet their greatest achievement. A totally unique, highly imaginative, medieval-tinged prog-rock album, unlike any other in the band's (or any other band's) catalogue, the true testimony to both producer Bob Ezrin's genius and to the band's musical capabilities. A timeless classic and my all-time favourite.
Highlights: The Oath, Just a Boy, Under the Rose, A World Without Heroes, Mr. Blackwell.
