Face on the Cover: All four members of KISS, dressed in Japanese-influenced costumes. The back cover had a single face made up of various elements of the band members' individual makeup jobs.

New Sound Album

comment
New Sound Album: In contrast to the debut album being the benchmark for what Kiss sounds like, this one sticks out in their discography as only about two or three of the songs were similar to "Rock and Roll All Nite" or other classic Kiss hits - tellingly, only the title track remains well-known - with "Parasite" being more of a "stoner metal" song and "Goin' Blind" having a very low-key, almost 1990s alternative sound to it. Quite a few of these songs were written by guitarist Ace Frehley, who had much less of a "pop" sensibility than the other band members. Also, this Kiss album was their only one recorded in Los Angeles, CA., a city that these New Yorkers (~City-ers that is) hated then despite their then record label Casablanca being located there.

Bilingual Bonus: The Japanese in the top-right corner (地�����, or Jigoku no Sakebi) translates as "Hell's shout" or "The shout of hell". The character at the bottom is "chikara," meaning force, power, strength, energy, ability, or vigor.

Groove Metal: "Parasite" is cited as the first prototypical groove metal track. Fittingly enough, Dimebag Darrell, of Pantera was a massive Ace Frehley devotee.

Gratuitous Japanese: The cover of this album had these. Bilingual Bonus: The Japanese in the top-right corner (地�����, or Jigoku no Sakebi) translates as "Hell's shout" or "The shout of hell". The character at the bottom is "chikara," meaning force, power, strength, energy, ability, or vigor. "Blind Idiot" Translation: On the other hand, the members' names are a little... off. In particular, Frehley's name being rendered as エイス フューリ (eisufyuuri; Ace Fury) instead of エースフレーリー (eesufureerii).
