{"product_id":"eric-carr-rockology-black-friday-2025-liquid-vinyl-lp","title":"Eric Carr- Rockology, Black Friday 2025 Liquid Vinyl LP","description":"\u003ch2\u003eEric Carr- Rockology, Black Friday 2025 Liquid Vinyl LP\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“Rockology” has always been the great lost treasure of Eric Carr’s musical legacy — the one album that gives fans a clear window into who he really was outside the greasepaint. Originally assembled after his passing by Bruce Kulick and longtime collaborators, the record captured that unmistakable Car(r)thunder: melodic, muscular, and full of heart. For Black Friday Record Store Day 2025, it finally gets the kind of release worthy of his memory: a \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eliquid-filled vinyl edition\u003c\/span\u003e that looks like it was carved straight out of a cosmic drum explosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis version contains swirling orange and deep-violet liquid sealed inside the walls of the disc, creating a shifting, lava-lamp effect when the record spins. The artwork has been rebuilt from the ground up: a full-bleed portrait of Carr in the mid-80s look — fox-inspired hair, studded jacket, and that grin fans still miss — framed in a midnight-blue sheen with metallic silver typography. The inner sleeve includes rare studio photos, handwritten lyric scraps, and Kulick’s newly written 2025 liner notes on the final sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFor collectors, for KISS lifers, for anyone who still feels a pang when they hear the opening roll of “Under the Gun,” this is the definitive version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“Rockology” is one of those albums that hits differently when you know the story behind it. There’s no gloss, no pomp, none of the machinery KISS albums sometimes drowned in. What you get instead is Eric in that rare state where he was free to experiment. You hear how much he loved melody. You hear his sense of humour. You hear him stretching himself vocally in ways the main band rarely allowed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“Eyes of Love” sounds like the lost late-80s KISS single that should have made it onto Hot in the Shade. “Somebody’s Waiting” shows how tasteful he could be with arrangement and mood. “Nasty Boys” is pure metallic cheek, the kind of song that proves he always had a rock ’n’ roll grin tucked behind the famous fox face. And “North Carolina” feels like paging through someone’s private notebook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe 2025 liquid-filled pressing only amplifies the experience. It’s the sort of variant that makes you stop and stare before you even drop the needle. Watching the colours swirl while those demos crackle out of the speakers has a strange emotional punch — like his spirit is still moving inside the grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFans have waited a long time for a truly premium edition. This is it. It’s personal, it’s lovingly assembled, and it reminds you exactly why Eric Carr remains one of the most beloved figures in the KISS universe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Culture Factory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49831538688193,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/eric-carr-rockology-liquid.jpg?v=1764992055","url":"https:\/\/hathillrecords.com.au\/products\/eric-carr-rockology-black-friday-2025-liquid-vinyl-lp","provider":"Hat Hill Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
