KISS

In 2001, KISS was deep into their 'Farewell Tour,' a bittersweet chapter in their long and iconic career. Just before this live recording in Nagoya, they released the album 'Psycho Circus' in 1998, which marked a return to the original lineup after years of lineup changes. This album, while not their most commercially successful, revitalized interest among fans and celebrated their legacy. What's fascinating is that during the Farewell Tour, the band was still cranking out live performances with the same electrifying energy that made them legends decades earlier. The live recording in Rainbow Hall showcases classic hits like 'Detroit Rock City' and 'Shout It Out Loud,' emphasizing the band's commitment to delivering powerful, crowd-pleasing shows right up until their purported retirement from touring. It’s a testament to their enduring influence and the passion they ignite in their fanbase, even years after their heyday.
