This week Tom & Zeus review the 1988 KISS compilation, "Smashes, Thrashes & Hits!" This is the first compilation for KISS in the United States, since Double Platinum in 1978. The album also featured two new Eighties-style tracks with hilarious videos, not in a good way.

The album is certified double platinum and is the best selling KISS album since Nielson Soundscan began in 1991. Most of the rest of the tracks were remixed to controversial results, including a new Eric Carr-sung Beth.

The guys breakdown the new songs and videos, the song selections and the remixes. They then rank the album cover and the album as a whole against previously reviewed compilation albums.

Watch out for those panties!
