KISS

In late 1984, KISS was riding the wave of their 'Animalize' album, which had been released just weeks before this electrifying Madison Square Garden concert on November 30. The 'Animalize' era marked a pivotal moment for the band, showcasing their shift back to a harder rock sound while reintroducing fans to their signature theatrical flair. Interestingly, this live performance featured the return of guitarist Mark St. John, who had joined the band shortly before the tour. Notably, the concert was part of their 'Asylum' tour, which was characterized by elaborate visual effects, a vital element of KISS's identity. With unforgettable performances and an iconic setlist, this show solidified KISS's status as rock legends, reminding fans why they fell in love with the band in the first place.
