Hot in the Shade

by KISS

Clocking in as the longest studio album of their career at the time, this release finds the unmasked era of KISS firmly entrenched in the late-80s glam metal formula. While suffering from noticeable filler and slick, generic production, the record contains the massive hit 'Forever', a power ballad co-written by Michael Bolton. It stands as a bloated but commercially successful artifact of the band's pop-metal period.
