This album is really good. At least the title track \m/ They are kind of like a lower-tier version of Accept.

Duh :hi5: I'm not sure on the short list bit but I could see him singing the songs. They made the right choice with Bruce though.

Never got into Krokus. 1983 was all Def Leppard, Priest, and Maiden for me.

somewhere there's a Beavis and Butthead clip where they are watching a Krokus video and Butthead says, what's wrong with that guys hair ? to which Butthead replies "Beavis, His chest is no picnic either". I spit my drink all over the place when he said that. :lol:

Horrible video but chicks loved this song.

Came to post this.

If I never hear S.I.T.N. again it will be too soon. I'm sure, like MTV in '83, it is on heavy rotation in Hell. :crazy:
