PSYCHO CIRCUS
Psycho Circus is the 18th studio album by American rock band Kiss. The album features the original four members back together and in full make-up. Some pressings featured a lenticular cover that alternates between a black Kiss logo and the album title with pictures of a clown and the band members, while the Japan initial first pressing featured a pop-up cover which had three foam spring-loaded panels of a clown face and two others with band members faces that popped out when the doors were opened. "You Wanted the Best" is the only Kiss song in which lead vocals are shared by the entire lineup. -Wikipedia

Show All-
Rolling Stone
An album of platform-stomping rhythms, roller-coaster guitar riffs and sing-along choruses — is far more respectable than any of the awkward flops from the no-makeup years
-
Spinditty
Still stands as a disappointment to many KISS fans and a monument to what could've been.
-
Sleaze Roxx
There are some songs that fit with wanting to hear a song or two, but as for sitting down listening to the album as a whole piece, it’s a struggle to get through.
-
All Music
As the band pushes 50, Kiss no longer sound young, hungry, or sleazy -- they sound like professional dirty old men
-
Mike Ladano
In the end, it’s “just another Kiss album”, and not a particularly great one.
-
Kiss Asylum
The first 4 songs are brilliant, and then I could take or leave the rest.
-
Poffy's Movie Mania
Psycho Circus (either despite its adversity or because of it), is one solid KISS mamajama

Mark's Record Reviews
But they try SO hard to make singalongable anthems that the songs end up having no substance at all.
