Episode 143 - KISS - Music from the "Elder" - Part 2

Episode143 is here! This week on Rock Roulette, we close the book on one of the most fascinating—and divisive—chapters in KISS history: Music from “The Elder.” From concept-album ambitions to orchestral arrangements and that lone Gene Simmons tear in “A World Without Heroes,” we break down Side 2 and ask the big question: Was it a misunderstood masterpiece or a glorious misfire? Tune in as we give “The Elder” the dramatic finale it deserves.
