Krokus - Dirty Dynamite


This is the seventeenth studio album of this legendary band from  Switzerland...
Krokus, having taken the name from a flower (or spice), have always lived in the shadow of AC/DC. Many lsteners claimed that Krokus were mere immitators of AC/DC, as the influence is obvious. In reality, Krokus have a great career behind them and they are definitely something more, proving it once more in the latest album "Dirty Dynamite". Crystal clear sound, strong riffs and good songs make a solid result, with the only drawback that in the end you have a feeling that all songs sound the same. The highlights are definitely "Halleluja Rock n' Roll", "Dirty Dynamite", but the greatest surprise is the cover of the Beatles' song "Help", which you should check. The resemblances with AC/DC are inevitable but overall the album compensates you with its strength. Halleluja Rock n' Roll!
