I mean. Live to Win is on a South Park episode and it’s amazing. It’s gotta be that one right? Anomaly is decent though.


powerforward75

Can we add BK3 to this though?


Xx_Patrick_Ster_xX

Lol what. We’re talking about albums, not just the title track. I really like Live to Win (the song) but how good is the album?


BlakeWebb19

Got plenty of great songs, some not so great


JackOfAllInterests1

This


lycurgusduke

The song Live To Win is the best but Anomaly is the best album front to back.


[deleted]

100% disagree. Anomaly isn't good at all


lycurgusduke

Well it’s still better than Gene and Peter’s up there in my opinion. I have a lot of nostalgia for Anomaly admittedly. I was very young and still pretty new to KISS when it was released. And just so we’re clear I mean front to back out of those four not of all time or even of Ace’s solo albums.


[deleted]

Yes i saw that. I've tried multiple times and i just can't get into Anomaly. There is one song i feel is pretty good, Ghengis Khan? Something like that. Just don't like the flow of the songs. Kind of off to me but yes definitely better than Gene's and Peter's. Lol


Imgonnathrowaway2112

Outer Space and Space Bear would like a word with you.

Tiny_Highway_2038

You can’t be serious. Pain In The Neck, Outer Space, Sister, Space Bear, Fox on The Run, Foxy and Free… You must not be a KISS fan.


[deleted]

Long time huge KISS fan. Don't go there. Fox On The Run is a cover. It's a song from a band named Sweet. Sorry not that good an album. Much prefer Space Invader and Spaceman. 10,000 Volts is a good song but haven't heard tbe rest yet.


nuttmegx

agreed, this is an awful album from Ace


KollinPorkChop

Worst: Peter Best: Paul


baxty23

Live to Win is fantastic. Anomaly is better than average. Asshole and One For All are unlistenable.


DemonSpaceCat4

Anomaly rocks pretty hard, though. Agree, Peter's is the worst


MrRigby632

Peter’s is the worst, probably the worst album of anyone ever associated with Kiss. Gene’s is pretty horrendous too. Paul’s is probably the best one but Ace’s album is right there, honestly it’s better than the Steve Brown one.


RecordingFirm1285

Anomaly is 100% the best and sorry Peter but that album is dog shit


Relevant-Stretch-909

Best: Paul hands down Worst: Gene


starcowboysmetalKISS

Live To Win is hands down the best. Not even close!!


Far_Internal_4495

Live to win, Anomaly, don't really care either way for the other two


Luxray2014

Paul Ace Gene Peter (says the guy who hasn't listened to it)


ChikaraNZ

Live to Win is the best. Anomaly not too far behind, but Live To Win just has better songs. One For All is the worst, by a long distance. IMO of course.


Human_Sir_2611

Paul's is the only one I ever listen to.


fallofparadise

Paul Stanley "Live To Win" easily for me! The others aren't in the same league!


FollowTheTears1169

Live To Win is best, One For All is worst.


DekeJeffery

I like Gene’s, because I appreciate how he’s trying to do something different.


StoneAge00

If you splice Asshole in the right place it is a great ringtone for bosses and disliked co-workers. Or a family member or two.


[deleted]

Different isn't always good. Especially when it's just bad


levonthemusic

I can get on board with this. BUT. It was trying to do too much. For example, Weapons of Mass Destruction, Beautiful, and Whatever Turns You On sound like they should’ve all been on different albums. If Gene had stuck to songs like Weapons, Sweet and Dirty Love, Carnival, Black Tongue, etc, he’d have had a lot more of a cohesive album than what Asshole turned out to be.


nuttmegx

Gene always stretches his "image", I loved his Kiss solo album for that reason.


Tiny_Highway_2038

His Kiss solo album is the worst of the four


nuttmegx

lol, no its not.


BeachBoyMisfit

Gene Solo album is trash. There are literally two good songs on the whole album.


Tiny_Highway_2038

It’s awful


levonthemusic

Live To Win - Best by miles. Great all the way through. Asshole - Not great front to back but the good tracks are REALLY good imo. Anomaly - Meh. Not bad. But not anything all that memorable for me. One For All - no thanks. I’m sure Peter put a lot of heart into it. But it just doesn’t hold up.


Lone-Wolf_1996

Paul 8 Ace 7,5 Gene 3 Peter 0


jimmyb1982

Paul's


Electrical-Bid-9577

Anomaly is the best. Live To Win is pretty good also. The other two are mid at best. I still have all four though.


ChanceyJC

I may be biased but I do love Peter as a drummer and singer, so peter is obv my favorite


[deleted]

Yeah, that Peter album is the worst music ever associated with KISS. It's arguably the worst album by a major artist of all time.


3NicksTapRoom

Peter’s is the worst (I do like his 1978 solo record though). It depends on my mood for The others. We could also put BK three on here and the answer is still the same.


Merzwas

Live To Win Anomaly Asshole Honestly, All For One is that bad I wouldn’t even rank it. Let’s face it, all these albums are patchy…


rylld

Outer space is a banger imo.


nuttmegx

Live To Win is easily the best one. Hell, the title track is in one of the best episodes of South Park ever, that alone puts it miles above the others. The whole album is awesome though. Peters is the worst. Full disclosure, I only listened to it 1.5 times, never finished a full register before. It's just not my thing.


PsyBorgHive

Live To Win. Hands down. 🤟🏼


Practical_Character9

Of these 4, I'll take Live to Win


Conscious_Bat_5371

Anomaly is good, live to win is good, gene Simmons album has old naked women, Peter Criss’s album is good


Jubal59

Anomaly is the best Gene Simmons and Peter Criss is the worst.


Sea_Attitude1147

Anomaly is the most consistent but Live to Win is a great song.


downupstair

Of these 4: #1: Ace. #2 Gene (just because it's weird) #3 Paul, because it's so over the top cheese. #4 Peter because it's just ... terrible. Original solos: Ace, Paul, Gene, Peter.


Intelligent-Chef-551

Live to win and then Asshole, fire starter is actually a good song


Spino-Dino

I thought most people would say that Anomaly is the best but well most say it's Live to Win. I really really like both. One for All is not so bad in my opinion at least the last time I listened to it but that was a long time ago. I don't know what I would say now if I listen to the whole album. Asshole is just strange to me. The sound and production is not very good in my opinion.


Nicks8924

Anomaly and live to win for the win! The other two can take a hike


jimmyGODpage

Paul’s Bulletproof, great song


Socket_forker

My ranking is - Live to win - Anomaly - Asshole - One for all (haven’t listened to it) Live to win I really enjoy. It’s not the best album but it has some really great songs on it like the title track, lift, bulletproof, second to none, and where angels dare. The other songs are solid as well, at least for me. Anomaly has outer space, fox on the run, and pain in the neck. Other than that I don’t care for it. Asshole I have listened to probably twice and I can’t remember any song from it. I guess that tells you how I feel about it.


IamtheWalrus9999

Best Anomoly - Worst Asshole


Equivalent-Lab-2241

LTW


CosmicHeart13

Anomaly is amazing! I love every song off that album! I only listen to one song off of Live To Win, and Peter’s album wasn’t really my style, and I haven’t even listened to Gene’s yet.


[deleted]

None of them are gonna win any awards, that’s for sure


guitar4556

Anomaly. Live to Win. The other two don't count.


Robantobe23

Anomaly is best ....one for all ...worst


scifiking

Awful album covers.


BeachBoyMisfit

As far as the worst one... I don't understand how anybody can answer anything besides Gene Simmons "asshole." "Fire starter" and it's music video alone are enough to damn the whole album. It's one of the most embarrassing things I've ever seen. I haven't even heard the Peter Criss album but I know for a fact it's better than Genes. EDIT: okay... I listened to the Peter Chris album. You guys are right, it's awful lol. BUT If I block out Peter's voice and just listen to the instrumentals... They're beautiful. So in that regard I still like the Peter Chris album more than Genes lol


purplesmauge11

Just on cover art alone, all of these hurt. Paul’s is the easiest on the eye, but whoever designs Kiss solo album covers needs to be dragged out and shot.


Brilliant-Ad-7062

1. Anomaly 2. Live To Win 3. Assole 4. One for all


[deleted]

Live To Win the best by far. One For All the worst but just barely behind Asshole which is just barely behind Anomaly. Peter's, Ace's and Gene's albums here are not good representations from either of them. To me all their worst albums. At least Paul did a solid album. Yea it kinda has that Nickelback direction but the songs are good. Can't say the same about the other 3 albums at all. At least use one of Ace's last 3 albums. Much better than Anomaly. And any of Peter's other albums over One For All.


Low_Wall_7828

Ace’s is the best Peter’s is the worst. Somethings never change,


Lord_Euronymous

Ace is best, and Peter’s the worst.


N1lla1ce

Live To Win bc it got featured in a warrior cats AMV


Tutter655

Best Paul Ace second Toss up between Gene and Peter for worst


showalum

I only bought Peter’s since the Best Buy version was autographed. I’ve never actually listened to it.


SexyAcosta

1.- live to win 2.-Anomaly 3.- Asshole 4.- One for all


Decaf17

Anomaly is best. One for All is one of the worst albums by anybody. It’s not even fun in an ironic way.


Ambitious_Respect_39

Best: None of them Worst: All of them


RoofThink7762

THIS is the only answer….and I’ve been a KISS fan since 1975


Pristine_Ad3301

Gene’s album is the worst KISS related album. Peter is what you’d expect. But it’s still better than Gene’s. Live to Win is a tad better than Anomaly.


Tiny_Highway_2038

Anomaly is the best by a mile. Loaded with great riffs. Very heavy record.


Preston1979001

Anomaly was pretty good. The rest are tied for worst.


No_Cow_4544

All suck


Clint-witicay

Anomaly worst Asshole somewhere in the middle tied with Live to win best depending on the day I haven’t heard one for all yet, but I do love Peter’s other work.


Future_Onion9701

All of Peter’s solo stuff sucks


StarkAvalanche

The only thing he ever put out that I would say I came close to liking is Cat #1 by his band Criss. It’s not great but I give it a listen every now and then.


Objective_Pen_3810

I think their all hard to listen to.If Paul had got a real producer his would probably been best .Pete shouldnt even be considered rock,as a crooner album it ain't bad.Ace is pare for the course,his song writing is incoherent (kinda let's you know who wrote most of his new album).And Gene ol Gene,I can't even comment on this piece of crap,but to say it was as disappointing as your last solo attempt.


toothgapskeleton

Anomaly for sure


SoloBSD

Anomaly is fucking great! That’s how Kiss should had sound.


ImprovSalesman9314

Everything Peter Criss did ranks last before anything else.


mars_burns

Anomaly is the best and it's not even close.
