This is the most metallic moment in music history. It crystallizes all the elements of both fire and ice into a titanic overture of overkill. God bless Gene Simmons.
I was 5 years old when this came out. My older brothers had the album and I LOVED this stuff!! haha When they took off their makeup, my brothers gave me the album and said that they were gay now. It makes me laugh now but I still think the music is pretty cool. Classic stuff.
Yeah I remember seeing this footage and I use to have nightmares about Gene, when I got older I became a fan of his and Kiss and then his show came out and u got to see that he is just a regular person, I love that show, me and my wife watch that all the time.
@ElPolloL0co1 They always sound better live. Listen to the studio version of Rock and Roll all nite, it's alright but when it's played live it's a lot better.
Anyone else want God of Thunder back in the setlist? It's hasn't been played since May 18, 2008, at Terra Vibe in Athens, Greece (it wasn't even supposed to be played, it was supposed to be I love it Loud, but I guess Gene wanted to do a special song for that special event, as it was KISS's first time in Greece). Any one who wants God of Thunder back in the setlist, LET ME HERE YOU!
rush_2112@live.com this most defenetly needs added back come GOD OF THUNDER gene is one of the greatest and if ya leave it out iam sure the greeks would be dissapointed they listen to KISS DONT THEY!??! !..! (><) !..!
@Herpsteen Yes, I have the honor to see them y in the hottest dhow in the earth tour, it´s my first time and I wanna hear this fucking awesome song but they played I Love it Loud isn´t bad, but it isnt god of thunder U.U
@lewdog1985 hahaha..yeah i totally agree. But i guess in this band the musical skills was never the first priority at least not back then..Cool song though :)
i've seen kiss more times than most people have seen their grandparents (15) and even after all the band changes they still f#ckin rock better than todays bands. if you have any douts check out there box sets.

ONCE GOD OF THUNDER COMES BACK INTO THE SETLIST, KISS WILL START TO BECOME BIGGER AGAIN (Gene has played "God of Thunder" every time at least one tour per year)
And right now...
IT'S TIME TO PUT GOD OF THUNDER BACK IN THE SET LIST FOR SONIC BOOM!
I am 47 years of age and have always loved KISS. Early years were my favorite and saw the in Albquerque in 76 or 77 then later in Denver about '78. The ORIGINAL KISS ALIVE is one of the BEST rock albums EVER made.....Kicks ASS...Raw and in your face MUSIC!!!!
76, 77, 78 were ok, but nothing compares to Alive! I would´ve given everything I have to attend the concerts they recorded for the album. "100,000 years" still chills the shit out of me. Paul talking to the crowd and while Peter keeps the rhythm ... "Come on and clap your hands! Cause that´s what rock'n'roll is all about!!". You must listen to it on the vinyl, when you see it going round it´s hypnotic!!!
I salute you! Don't stop listening to Kiss! Also, check out Black Sabbath with Ozzy, Ronnie James Dio, and Ian Gillan, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Slayer, Venom, Megadeth, AC/DC, and Rainbow!
From the Destroyer LP. On the Dynasty tour, this hit would be taken to a new "level," literally. After his bass solo and blood spitting, Gene would fly up to the top of the stage to perform this. Dynasty was my first KISS concert and even though I saw stagehands up there, I had no idea what they were doing. To me, that was the highlight of the concert.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ever notice the crowd is never as loud as when you listen to Alive 1 and Alive 2, in fact the crowd was very docile after there songs ended live in concert. It was all hyped out to make them look larger than they were.
from 1:06 to 2:00 he is a fuckng real demon
