Smashes, Thrashes & Hits is Kiss’ third greatest hits album, including two previously unreleased tracks and titles from Love Gun, Destroyer, Creatures of the Night, Kiss, Lick It Up, Animalize,Rock and Roll Over, Asylum, Dynasty and Dressed to Kill. The album peaked at number 21 on the Billboard 200 chart in 1988. Many of the songs that had been recorded with the original line-up were altered in some way, Eric Carr re-recorded the title “Beth” which had been sung by drummer Peter Criss, making it the first record featuring Carr on lead vocals.

Smashes, Thrashes & Hits is a compilation of Kiss’s greatest hits from their ’80s career. Since there weren’t enough chart-toppers from that period to fill an entire album, however, ’70s classics from their more theatrical days are also included, such as “Love Gun,” “Shout It Out Loud,” and “Rock and Roll All Nite.” (Peter Criss’ power ballad, “Beth,” is also featured on the album, but is a re-recorded version with then-drummer Eric Carr on vocals.) This combination of classic power rock and pop-metal is what makes the record entertaining, and the album’s two new tracks, “Let’s Put the X in Sex” and “(You Make Me) Rock Hard,” continue to display Kiss’ interesting melodies. Although necessary only to the avid Kiss fan, Smashes, Thrashes & Hits is an acceptable compilation and is another good introduction to the band. ~~AllMusic Review by Barry Weber
