On this day March 25 1988 Swiss hard rock band Krokus released their tenth studio album Heart Attack. Known for their high energy sound and gritty vocals the band returned to a heavier style with this record after experimenting with a more commercial approach on earlier albums.
Heart Attack featured tracks like Rock n Roll Tonight and Let It Go and marked the return of original member Chris von Rohr. The album reached number 87 on the US Billboard charts and was promoted as a comeback for the band following some lineup and direction changes.
80s insight: Heart Attack was billed as the final album by the band at the time though Krokus went on to release several more albums in the years that followed.
