Title: Good CD for a "Rock Soldier"
Review: I've usually liked KISS (and Ace), especially the LIVE albums. This is a good, solid album, especially if you like Ace's style. Ace is a tough survivor of the Rock Star meat-grinder. He's no Eddie Van Halen -- but never pretends to be. He worked on his techniques during his "absence", and it shows -- his overtoning is as good as Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. I like his Bronx "ya-wanna-piece-a-me?" vocals. Anton Fig's (from The Letterman Show) drumming is flawless."Dolls" is the only weak song. "Rock Soldiers" is the stirring confessional of his "dark" period. "Something Moved" features Ace's characteristic fast, distorted riffs. "Fractured Too" is a much-improved rewrite of the instrumental on his original solo album. A change of pace, and well done.
