Hello prog community. I am new here, and I decided to make an account partly in the interest of better engaging with this awesome site, and partly because a band I like appears to be missing from the massive list of bands (to my surprise). I can't figure out how to amend that. The band is Krokus a Swiss band whose 1976 album would fit well on this website. They evolved into more of a traditional hard rock band, but this album certainly merits inclusion on this site. Wikipedia also lists progressive rock as one of their genres.

^ Krokus have never been suggested for inclusion on PA in the public forum, but they were suggested directly by a collaborator in the Heavy Prog team thread back in February 2009. There was some discussion on whether or not it was definitely M@x's position that if a band has one prog album then they are required to be included on PA, but the general consensus was that allowing them in based on this one album of quite considerable stylistic variety, that admittedly did at least go beyond the basic blues & boogie-based hard rock/metal that followed it, would open up a can of worms from hell!
Here's the album on YouTube anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m78_aadNu_A" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m78_aadNu_A .
