The big drawback is Ace's singing voice, which for the most part is flat and oft-putting. That, and all of the songs are about getting extremely wasted. Many people have speculated that this album functioned as a spotlight for Ace's talents, but on the contrary - I think it was more of a subconscious cry for help, but the protagonist was too burrowed in his own head to realize it. Another item of note here was that Anton Fig, who would become Peter Criss' in-studio replacement for the next couple of Kiss records (more on that later), plays drums throughout.
