In Your Face is the second album by the hard rock band Kingdom Come. Two singles were released in support of the album, both becoming minor hits in the UK: "Do You Like It" (no. 73) and "Overrated" (no. 85).[3] The band was due to tour the UK, supporting W.A.S.P., shortly after release of the second single, but split up before the tour commenced (ironically W.A.S.P. also lost guitarist and co-founder Chris Holmes at the same time, meaning they also had to cancel the tour). A third single "Stargazer" was pressed, but never officially released.

The 12" and CD single versions of "Do You Like It", includes the previously unreleased "Slow Down";[4] a song that did not make it onto the album.

In an interview, the band's members talk about the title of the album, saying that when you first look at the LP, you read "Kingdom Come", then, as you move your eyes downwards, you read "In your face". They laugh and say: "Kingdom come ... in your face, get it?", making an obscene joke or double entendre of it.[citation needed]

[es] In Your Face (álbum de Kingdom Come)

In Your Face es el segundo disco del grupo Kingdom Come. Después de su debut comercialmente exitoso, este segundo trabajo resultó un fracaso. En uno de los retrocesos más intensos del hard rock, Kingdom Come redefinió el término "one hit wonder" antes de que In Your Face estuviera en las repisas de las tiendas de discos, sellando el destino del álbum. El sonido zepelinesco aún se escuchaba en temas como "Perfect 'O'". A finales de los 80's hubo trabajos inferiores, pero mejor recibidos, que In Your Face.

In Your Face — второй альбом хард-рок-группы Kingdom Come. В поддержку альбома были выпущены два сингла, ставших небольшими хитами в Великобритании: «Do You Like It» (73-е место в UK Singles Chart) и «Overrated» (85-е место). Группа должна была отправиться в британское тур в поддержку W.A.S.P. вскоре после выпуска второго сингла, но распалась до начала тура (по иронии судьбы W.A.S.P. также потеряли своего гитариста и одного из основателей Криса Холмса в то же время, и им также пришлось отменить тур). Третий сингл «Stargazer» был отпечатан, но так и не был официально выпущен.
