KISS first released Hotter Than Hell 40 years ago today on October 22, 1974, mere months after their hit self-titled debut LP. It features the single “Let Me Go, Rock ‘n’ Roll” and fan favorites such as “Hotter Than Hell” and “Got To Choose.” Hotter Than Hell found KISS continuing to work with producers Kenny Kerner and Richie Wise, with cover art by John Van Hamersveld influenced by Japanese anime. The Japanese influence extended to the photo on the back cover, for which photographer Norman Seeff shot the band partying with models and other colorful characters at the Stage in Hollywood.

KISS are one of the most successful rock bands of all time. They’ve released 30 Gold albums, the most by any artist from the United States, and have sold more than 100 million albums worldwide. They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2014. Their theatrical approach to rock was massively influential, earning them disciples across all of popular music.
