KISS

In 1992, KISS was riding high on the wave of their 'Reunion Tour,' having revitalized their career after some challenging years in the late '80s. Prior to the live recording at The Palace of Auburn Hills, KISS released 'Hot in the Shade' in 1989, which featured popular tracks like 'Forever' and showcased their evolving sound. By the time of the 'Alive III' recording, the band was back in the spotlight with the original lineup, notable for its theatrical flair and musical prowess. Interestingly, 'Alive III' encapsulates their live energy during this comeback period and includes fan favorites. It was a time when KISS was also seen as a cultural phenomenon, beyond just rock icons, blending music with bold performance art that defined their identity. The excitement of the crowd in the video reflects their enduring legacy and the unbreakable connection with fans.
