KISS – Revenge [remastered SHM-CD]
* HQ
With the recent release of KISS Love Gun Deluxe Edition, many of you have asked our impression about the Japanese, high-fidelity SHM-CD format remastered version of “Revenge” appeared last year.
Well, this remaster sounds million bucks. It’s much, much deeper on the low frequencies, the mid-spectre is clearer and it posesses a great dynamic range.
Also, it’s being sold pretty cheap.
“Revenge” is one of my favorite KISS albums. The Bob Ezrin-produced record pulled the band out of the second creative slump of their career. In addition, Simmons & Co. also hired marketing consultants to find out what fans wanted from the group.
The result was probably the most mature album KISS ever did musically. Great guitar work, pounding drums, very good vocal arrangements and solid songs.
Edgy, sharp, “Revenge” is the most pure Hard Rock album from KISS’ career.
Very Recommended in your collection.
