comment |
Creatures of the Night is the tenth studio album by KISS, released in 1982. It was also the last to feature the band in make-up until the 1998 release of Psycho Circus, although for Eric Carr it would be his last featured make-up appearance. Despite appearing on the cover, Ace Frehley is completely absent on the album, as he was in the process of leaving the band at the time (not unlike Peter Criss and Unmasked). This marks the first appearance with Frehley's replacement Vinnie Vincent, albeit initially uncredited. It was the last KISS album to be published under the band's old record label Casablanca Records (its founder Neil Bogart died the same year that it was published) before Casablanca went defunct and they switched to Mercury Records. Since both labels were owned by PolyGram, some early copies of the album would be misprinted with one side of songs from John Cougar Mellencamp's album American Fool. |

comment |
Glowing Eyes: All four band members had their eyes glowing on the original 1982 cover. This continues into the music video for "I Love It Loud", where by the end, a bunch of teenagers with glowing eyes (most likely hypnotized by the video) walk out into the street, where the band members (also sporting glowing eyes) are waiting. |

Based on a Great Big Lie: Ace Frehley is featured on the original 1982 cover and credited despite never actually working on the album itself. The 1985 re-issue features Bruce Kulick on the cover with the other band members without make-up. |

Cover Version |
| | Creatures of the Night (Music) / int_cff53786 |
comment |
Cover Version: "Rock and Roll Hell" was actually originally a song by BTO. Jim Vallance, who wrote the original version, co-wrote the revised version with Bryan Adams and offered it to Kiss. Simmons then added another verse to make the song more of Kiss' own. Ace Frehley covered the Kiss version on his cover album Origins Vol. 1. |
