Krokus (also known - by the band in particular - as First Album[3]) is the first album by Swiss rock band Krokus. It was the only Krokus album to feature Hansi Droz and Remo Spadino. It is also the only Krokus album to show a progressive rock style. The album has become a collector's item since only 560 copies were ever pressed and it has never been made available since.
