* AlbumTitleDrop: "Hotter Than Hell" in the TitleTrack.


Added DiffLines:

* NewSoundAlbum: In contrast to the debut album being the benchmark for what Kiss sounds like, this one [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness sticks out in their discography]] as only about two or three of the songs were similar to "Rock and Roll All Nite" or other classic Kiss hits - tellingly, only the title track remains well-known - with "Parasite" being more of a "stoner metal" song and "Goin' Blind" having a very low-key, almost '90s alternative sound to it. Quite a few of these songs were written by guitarist Ace Frehley, who had much less of a "pop" sensibility than the other band members.
