Okay, before anyone gets there knickers in a knot, I know we all have different tastes in music and what I like may not be what you like. Having said that though, I just want to share some of the music that I like to listen to on my double din car stereo. Feel free to leave comments below about what you think of this band, Krokus, or even better still share with us what you like to listen to. Who knows, maybe some of us will be able to discover new bands we enjoy by our sharing. All I ask is that we all respect eachothers rights to like what we want and not to be overly judgemental. ie. you can say you don’t like something, but don’t be a twat and resort to name calling (this isn’t elementary school) or other derogatory statements.
Before we get into info about the band, check out this video, and then if you’re still interested scroll down past the vid to read more.

Alrighty then, if you’re still reading I hope you liked the clip, or perhaps went and checked out some of their other songs. I first came across this band (who are from Switzerland of all places), well let’s just say it was on a record. You know those big black things that are twice the size of CDs? You don’t? Well, it doesn’t matter anyway. The record was of a live concert they did, I think somewhere in the late 70s or early 80s.
Which means this band has been around for quite awhile, and yes they are still performing. They’ve played with such other bands as AC/DC, Motorhead, Van Halen, Judas Priest, Quiet Riot, Ted Nugent, and a ton of others. Check out more information about them at the Official Krokus Website.
They may not be a band I listen to daily, but do on a regular basis.
Most of the music out there is older, but they’ve just recently (2010) released a new album “Hoodoo”, their first in 20 years.
Check out some of the tracks from Hoodoo here.
