On This Day: March 25 1988 Heart Attack by Krokus Was Released
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.

Fun fact: 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.

Trivia question: What Krokus album released in 1983 became their biggest US success reaching the top 30 on the Billboard charts?
