''Music From "The Elder"'' is the ninth studio album by Music/{{KISS}}, released in 1981. It was an attempt at a ProgressiveRock ConceptAlbum that came out around the time when the band's fortunes were slipping following the releases of [[Music/KISSSoloAlbums the four solo albums]], ''Music/{{Dynasty}}'', and ''Music/{{Unmasked}}'', and after the replacement of drummer Peter Criss with Eric Carr. The album would cause the band to eventually replace lead guitarist Ace Frehley with Vinnie Vincent in 1983, as Ace only contributed to a few tracks on the album. Ace wanted to create a much harder rock album, but was outvoted by the band's two other founding members and Eric Carr had no say in the matter. (Some of the songs that were demoed before this album's release would find their way onto the 1982 Europe-only release of ''Killers''.) It is considered an OldShame by a seemingly shameless band, as they performed very few songs from the album live.

* EverythingIsAnInstrument: The instrumental bridge of "I" consists of nothing but snapping of fingers -- possibly because they were expecting a guitar solo, but they couldn't find anyone to replace Ace Frehley at the time.
