@@michaelmacleod6517 Paul was lip syncing the last 10 years of his career. I don't want to hear about Ace and Peter's playing ever again. It's so overrated that they had people pretend to be Ace and Peter for 20 years while they were filling up arenas. Their career was over until they put the makeup back on. Accept it.
It's sad how Kiss ignore this album. Not to hear one single song, live. I love every song of it. It's dark, it's heavy, it has personality. Too bad most of the fans prefer them to play only the classics...
yeah, I don't understand why , like you said: the fans prefer the classics. KISS played live the same songs because the audience (most of them) don't know the obscure songs, but also they don't have to put any effort on playing others because people keep going to their concerts. I love this album. Carnival of souls and creatures of the night are both my #1 albums of all time. This album is a fucking masterpiece.
Absolutelly accord! As with THE ELDER, the seem to forget when musically go to other zones. And certainly most of the fans prefer the more commercial and light version of KISS...just some as us prefer its darker and deeper version of KISS...
It's hated because it sucks. Nearly every song is dreary and a lie. These guys are fing millionaires and they're singing about how the world sucks for them. They said they'd never do an album like this and they sold out and did it and it's a lie.
It is ignored because it isn't Kiss. Sure, it is the band, Kiss..but they are doing what is essentially musical karaoke. It is contrived, forced and uninspired. Sure, bands should evolve and try to bring new ideas to every release. But they reached WAY too far with this album.
I was 25 when it was released and I was all into alternative rock and industry metal at the time, so when KISS released this it felt like they were just trying too hard to be relevant. But I listened to it again not long ago and I really loved it. It`s a great album.
I could watch at least an hour documentary on the recording of this release. It's one of my very favorite KISS releases of ALL time and I've been a hard core fan since the early days as a child growing up when they first came out when I was only 8 yrs old in 1974. I think they really reached a mature peek in their career when they did this one...I also felt that with the Elder (keep in mind it was a soundtrack for a potential movie) The diversity of their playing and sound is so wide yet they keep the same flavor and signature feel with their lyrics and style. I cherish this era a lot for many reasons. Incredible production all the way around on everyone's part~!!!
That last chord and the group picture makes me sad every time I watch this about that this era ended. And it ended much too quickly. The best they have ever been regarding musicality, energy and focus. Great times, Bruce was one heck of a guitar player.
Yea. I really was excited about the reunion tour, been a fan since ‘75, but never wanted the reunion to be permanent. At their peak musically 1990-1995.
The rare days of a nice, non-douchey Gene (which was probably between 1991 and 1996), he was so happy, fit and had some sense for self-reflexion and Dignity...plus he made his best songs ever during this period...I wonder what caused it...
Reunion was an incredible and great thing for many fans. That said, i'm totally agree that it is the Bruce Kulick "and" Kiss album. Bruce, a talented and humble (too much?) musician, great guitarist, a part savior of Kiss (with the Eric's) deserved to print of his hand a Kiss album and it is this one. The underrated but excellent and one of heaviest Kiss albums, the well named Carnival of Souls: The Final Sessions. Reunion was already on that Bruce was still working on this album, making bass, guitars and many productions works. So yes, it would have deserved a tour before making Reunion but as said, business is not waiting... Thank you Bruce Kulick for this album, this is yours and after that, you walk alone...
Paul and Gene to Bruce: "Happy birthday Bruce, this is going to be your last album with KISS after 12 years of loyal service, we appreciate that but money is more important, thank you for nothing"
+evenisher What a fucking whiny bitch. You were the same exact fucking guy who spent the 80s bitching about there not being a makeup reunion. I've never met anyone who wasn't happy that the reunion happened. You're that fucking guy, aren't you? The life of the party. Bet you could clear a room quicker than Hillary Clinton.
When I bought the MTV Unplugged album, I looked at the photo of Bruce, Eric, and the four original members, turned to my then-wife, and joked, "Those two guys are like, 'We are SO fired now.'" Sad to have been so right. I mean, yeah - I saw the reunion tour too, and Singer's been back with the band since Peter glitched his ride AGAIN. Carnival of Souls, though, is the sound of a band that's not trying to sound like KISS, and it's a shame that band got strangled right as it hit its stride.
Because Kulick had his own style that was more versatile and unique. Paul and Gene typically just emulate. Thayer and Singer I feel are more or less at the mercy of Paul and Gene so you wouldn’t get much creativity out of future works. Psycho Circus would have been way better had Peter and Ace had more input.
"Make a wish!" "I wish that they'll change their minds about the Reunion." (Later on Bruce turns on the 1996 Grammys) "Oh, great, Tupac. Good time to call Gene and Paul and see what the plan..." (KISS walks on stage) "Fuck!"
I still remember the first time I put this album in my radio, I was really not expecting the amount of heaviness that this record had but I loved every single song, I also loved that Bruce finally sang at least one song on this album, this album should've gotten more exposure than it did (or rather didn't I suppose).
They didn't want to promote it. Paul never liked it, deoesn't to this day and by the time they were recording COS Paul and Gene were already putting the reunion tour together and knew they weren't going to tour to support it.
I honestly feel if after revenge they followed the grudge wave for a while they would found a new sound. I know kiss is gonna be kiss and put the makeup on but I really liked carnival of souls and it was toward the end of grudge and the start of the nu metal wave. Kiss would kicked ass in the grudge scene. This album proves it. It’s so different from the regular stuff tho they don’t really acknowledge it which is sad
I agree, this was Kiss at their finest.... The Elder was brilliant too. What pisses me off is the overall mentally of the common Kiss fan... They want another Destroyer, or Rock N Roll Over, Or Creatures, but when Kiss ventures off to explore new ground like this, its not well received and rejected and dismissed as a commercial failure... So, we end up with safe bullshit like Monster, and Sonic Boom! Fuck the ball and chains of the make up and spandex and continue to explore as an artist and grow....I love this album....it's honest, and has the finger prints of Bruce all through it....totally different band then the lunch box and pinball machine selling supergroup! A+
oct 1997,i was blown away.aug 2010,still stands as one of my favorite kiss records.bring it back,guys.it was a step in the right direction as writers.ace and peter reunion,that was obvious.they would have love to part of that kinda KISS.peter never got the chance since hotter than hell.
3:44. oh yes gotta love a studio with a couch like that.we once recorded in a studio with that same kinda couch .lots of sitting around watching, listening and waiting.every recording studio should have one .trust me .
Its not the best kiss record niether the worst. When I listened to it for the first time back in the day, i was like... WTF, is this kiss? ....But It has aged well. Still listening to it today...
This era I was getting into Heavily, it resparked my interest in KISS again, then.......it was over, BUT Got to see them on the reunion Tour a few times, but........ theres this litlle nugget of a great album, just left all alone, almost invisible, flew right under the radar.
My fave Kiss albums: Creatures, Lick, Sonic Boom, Carnival, Animalize, The Elder. In that order. I only want HEAVY Kiss. And Bruce was great towards the end of his run - he really found his style. Awesome player.
This is a BEST album of KISS, very underrated...Revenge and Carnival of Souls are the best because this is the best line-up, Paul's great all time, Bruce got the best solos, Eric S. is far better than Peter and Gene's voice has changed in the 90's (to better of course)...KISS Rulezzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Esse, para mim, é um dos MELHORES discos do KISS. A engenharia de som trabalhor MUUUUITO bem!!! Acho a formação aqui (Gene, Paul, Eric e Bruce) a melhor que já houve!!! Eles são 1000000000000000000!!!!!!
carnival of souls is such an odd anomaly. it's bad by kiss standards, being compared to destroyer or love gun or even creatures that even shares a darker tone- but by its own it's actually pretty enjoyable and has very clean and precise production. it's very obviously a brainchild of gene and bruce and it makes me wonder what it would've been like had gene leaned more into grunge or more experimental music of the time as a side gig. imagine gene collabing with Danzig or rob zombie. he's obviously got a taste for the performance art and horror so I wonder what he thinks of marylin Manson or slipknot. as great and successful as the reunion was, it's a bit predictable in hindsight. the other timeline where gene makes more goth oriented music seems interesting.

To all the people who bag this album they really have to clean your ears out and have a good listen to it it is absolutely brilliant ,,so many songs on it which could have been big big hits but of course the reunion got in the way and no one really cares about this album
This was the best Kiss album after Creatures of the Night. Dark and Heavy and with a personality of its own. Great songs. It was kiss rocking again as a band. The reunion was a big mistake. Gene and Paul always thinking with their pockets...
To you guys who can't find it on the Kissology Vol 3: Just klick in the "Kissology" logo in the menu. Obelisk2290: No, this wasn't supposed to be the reunion album. After MTV Unplugged, they went back to do a new album with Eric and Bruce. But as you all know, the reunion DID happen, right after when Carnival of Souls was finished. Take a notice on the recording dates, between nov 1995 -jan 1996. But the album itself was released in 1997!
Kiss: "we follow our own rules" 1979 hey lets make a disco song! 80's hey lets make poppy hair music! 95 hey lets make a dark moody album cuz grunge is popular!
I think he was playing some kind of drum but yes agreed no clips of Eric actually playing his drums. I think we would all like to see Eric play his drums
I would pay top dollar $$$ to see this band line up! Gene & Paul were to embarrassed & ashamed to take off the make up after the Psycho Circus catastrophe!!! COS is an extension of Revenge! Straight R&R - Heavy Metal. I don't get a Grunge vibe what's over! RIP KISS!!! Welcome to the Gene & Paul show!!!
I just discovered this album thanks to my buddy Leroy. Technically it's the best thing since Destroyer or the Elder. Too bad things didn't take off with this album. Amazing musicianship. Bruce really shines on this. All I can say is WOW! I have Kissology 2 and 3 and can't find this footage either!
kiss have always done what they want never followed any trends, allways been about rock and roll- yeah right paul except the times when you pretend you where van halen and alice in chains
This version never should have broken up. When Kiss were musicians instead of a nostalgic image.
This version may not have broken up if they didn't do the Unplugged albums...
The real reason is Tommy can't play any of the solos.
They weren't making any money. They were literally trying to capitalize on the grunge craze with this album. 70's KISS will always rule Supreme.

probably having kids
mattsteeleNJ Yeah, never thought of that, but you may be right :-)

That’s Evan Stanley and I agree.

Gene ripped on early 90s bands, then completely trys his best "Alice in Chains+Soundgarden." Lol. KISS is terrible.
Sorry Nirvana and early-mid 90s ended 100s of crappy bands like KISS
Amazingly underrated album. As a KISS fan this is in my top 5, maybe even 3! Incredible.
Jesus! For quite a dark album they were really happy during recording! :3
Kokopelli u right!!!
Absolutely brilliant record.
Such an underrated but incredible album

How did Kiss go from COS to Sonic Doom & Monster ??? Kiss went backwards musically in my opinion.
There are great cuts on both albums. But, I think Monster is a great album. I love the production.

One of the best KISS albums ever !
What a shame it didn't get the release it deserved...
This was the last "real" Kiss album
it was indeed ..psyco circus was ok..to poppy... but carnival of souls was fantastic..
Ik totally agree
Yep. They became a nostalgia act after this.
SONIC BOOM!!! if you don't like SB...don't call yourself a KISS fan and don't frigging talk to me.
Nope. Love gun was the last real kiss album
1:14 can we just stop for a second and appreciate this? This is amazing!
Sadly its gone
one of their heaviest album and so full of raw energy in it i love it.
Real fucking singers!! In studio with put the headphones on without music it still sounds excellent !

One of my favourite KISS Albums ever
Its not the best kiss record niether the worst. When I listened to it for the first time back in the day, i was like... WTF, is this kiss? ....But It has aged well. Still listening to it today...
The best album of kiss!
The last great album they made. Damn I still miss Bruce
@ 2:14: Watching Bruce in action is priceless. 👍👍

this album is our best in years it's like destroyer meets revenge

what a great album
loved it too...expecially .. childhoods end.. i.ll be there..pity not many others did..
I dont care what anyone says, its on my top 3 Kiss albums!
DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING!!!! LOL
carnival of souls if deffo one of my fav kiss albums ever
Genial mira q he visto casi todo y este me ha alucinado mucho gracias por colgarlo kiss forever
This album is fucking great. It's sad that it never got the love it deserves from the band.
I´m missing Paul´s voice!!! It was amazing that time
I have been a Kiss Army brother since 1979 and i couldn't agree more!
The two albums with the most complexity & depth.
The two best albums for sure.
Glad they decided against the backing vocals in Rain. Totally would've pissed on the song
i love this album they need to play these songs in concert.
Order of tunes:
- I Will Be There
- Childhood’s End
- Rain
- Hate
- It Never Goes Away
- Childhood’s End (again)
- I Will Be There (again)

Great album, Paul couldn't deal with it. How can you listen to the 80's load of crap and call this bad?
Tape Trading gold for many. Then was officially released. If you know, you know. Still a killer album 🤘🔥🤘
This was the best Kiss album after Creatures of the Night. Dark and Heavy and with a personality of its own. Great songs. It was kiss rocking again as a band. The reunion was a big mistake. Gene and Paul always thinking with their pockets...
To you guys who can't find it on the Kissology Vol 3: Just klick in the "Kissology" logo in the menu.
Obelisk2290: No, this wasn't supposed to be the reunion album. After MTV Unplugged, they went back to do a new album with Eric and Bruce. But as you all know, the reunion DID happen, right after when Carnival of Souls was finished.
Take a notice on the recording dates, between nov 1995 -jan 1996. But the album itself was released in 1997!
Paul and Gene saw the money in the original line up and makeup and threw this album and the other two guys out the window.
The last album Kiss did before they reunited with Ace and Peter and returned to being the band I grew up with in makeup.
I Love Carnival of Souls 😎
Where can I get more of this recording session stuff? Does any more exist?
Not HC fan but I also think this is one the KISS' best albums.
1:16 it’s sad to see Paul can’t sing this anymore
Whatever the case may be...imitating others, not original Kiss etc. This Album Kicks Ass!!!
So cute how Eric Singer is playing with little Evan
This album was really incredible. The tunes & playing were solid.
Kiss: "we follow our own rules"
1979 hey lets make a disco song!
80's hey lets make poppy hair music!
95 hey lets make a dark moody album cuz grunge is popular!
Bruce and I have birthday on the same day!!! Yay us!!

Pra mim , é um dos melhores disco do Kiss. Aqui eles haviam atingindo um patamar de maestria musical. É espetacular mas injustiçado.
I just discovered this album thanks to my buddy Leroy. Technically it's the best thing since Destroyer or the Elder. Too bad things didn't take off with this album. Amazing musicianship. Bruce really shines on this. All I can say is WOW! I have Kissology 2 and 3 and can't find this footage either!
Paul in his overalls. Who looks like they just stepped out of Hee Haw now, Stan? :D
Paul did dudes on the farm
fucking bad ass album and im not even a kiss fan
their best album after Music from "The Elder".
Михаил Алексеев you're an idiot.
I love this album too, especially Paul's songs
kiss have always done what they want never followed any trends, allways been about rock and roll- yeah right paul except the times when you pretend you where van halen and alice in chains
Lol, u forgot KISS's disco days. 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆
