Nearly 30 years after his 1978 self-titled debut, Kiss singer/guitarist Paul Stanley issued his first solo album without his signature "Starchild" make-up, LIVE TO WIN. Featuring contributions from former Kiss member Bruce Kulick (on bass) and guitarist John 5 (Marilyn Manson/Rob Zombie), the record consists largely of mid-tempo hard-rock tunes, most notably the pounding and thematically uplifting title track. Much like Meat Loaf's BAT OUT OF HELL III, released around the same time during 2006, LIVE TO WIN is a fine example of a veteran rocker refusing to rest on vintage material.

Entertainment Weekly (p.72) - "80s hair-metal-style power ballads like 'Second to None,' co-written with hitmaker Andreas Carlsson, are sleek and catchy..." -- Grade: B-
