It was the third successive Kiss album to reach the top 40 in the US, as well as the first to chart in Germany and New Zealand. The album was certified gold by the RIAA on April 22, 1976, and platinum on November 11 of the same year, the first Kiss album to achieve platinum. The album marked a departure from the raw sound of the band&#8217;s first three albums.<\/p>\n<p>The cover art for Destroyer was painted by fantasy artist Ken Kelly. Kelly was invited to a show and given a backstage pass. He said of the performance, &#8220;It blew me away.&#8221; Kelly was later commissioned by the band to draw the cover for 1977&#8217;s Love Gun.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly&#8217;s original version of the album cover was rejected by the record company because they felt the scene was too violent looking with the rubble and flames. Also, the original version had the members of Kiss wearing the Alive! costumes. The front cover shows the group striding on top of a pile of rubble, and a desolate background spotted with destroyed buildings, some of which are engulfed in flames. The back cover shows a similar scene, but with more buildings on fire. The front of the inner sleeve featured a large Kiss logo and the lyrics to &#8220;Detroit Rock City&#8221;. The other side displayed the lyric &#8220;SHOUT IT OUT LOUD&#8221;, as well as an advertisement for the Kiss Army fan club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destroyer is the fourth studio album by American rock band Kiss, released on March 15, 1976 by Casablanca Records in the US.
