Fun Facts:

-Despite this being billed as the first KISS studio album to feature all four original members since Dynasty, there was only one song that was actually recorded by all four members. There are a LOT of uncredited musicians (including Bruce Kulick) for this album.  Main reason being - this was shortly after their Reunion tour, and things were coming to a head again.  Doesn't mean the album sucks though; it's actually quite good.

-Within sticks out like a sore thumb on this album, mainly because it was recorded during Carnival of Souls.

-You Wanted The Best is known as the only KISS song to feature lead vocals for all four members at once (as opposed to just having one member do lead and the rest do backup).

-You've probably taken notice that the image looks kinda distorted.  It's because it's a bunch of images that's supposed to sit behind the lenticular plastic cover.  The curtain opens up to reveal the pants-shitting inducing clown with the title.
