KISS: "Carnival of Souls" reviews
(Updated 7/25/98)

As a service to all my KISS ASYLUM readers, I have tried to collect as many reviews as possible. There are a wide variety of reviews here with some being very complimentary to some being very uncomplimentary. Take them for what they are worth. If you would like to submit your review, then email me! I love to get "track-by-track" reviews of the album.
