The album was Reissued in 1997(along with most of Kiss' earlier albums) in a remastered version.

In His Own Words[]

"I recently listened to that album again. I hadnt listened to it in a long time, and I listened to the cd. There was alot of energy on that record. I was real happy with alot of the solos I did. It shows growth from the first record [Laughs]. Probably a four".
