Hot in the Shade

Hot in the Shade is the fifteenth studio album by American rock band Kiss, released in 1989. It is the first Kiss studio album since 1981's Music From "The Elder" to feature lead vocals from someone other than Paul Stanley or Gene Simmons, with drummer Eric Carr singing lead on "Little Caesar".

Hot in the Shade was certified Gold status on December 20, 1989, by the RIAA.

Its most successful single, "Forever", reached No. 8 on the Billboard charts, the band's highest-charting single in the US since "Beth" 13 years earlier.

Despite the top 10 success of "Forever", Hot in the Shade was the first Kiss album since 1982's Creatures of the Night not to be certified Platinum status.
