Krokus Classic!.......2006-12-11

Krokus is an example of a band that got lost in the
80's garbage hair metal bands that were on MTv but were
much better. This album always reminded me of ACDC
style rock and I've always loved it! Every song is a
killer. Sounds like a greatest hits album. If you love
great hard rock like ACDC, UFO, Lizzy, Motorhead etc..
you'll love it!

Don't Write a review if you don't know the facts.......2005-12-19

I love this album. I also love Metal Rendez-Vous and Hardware. For those misinformed individuals that claim this is acopy of AC/DC with Brian Johnson, I beg to differ. Marc Storace (Lead Singer) has sung like this prior to 1982 when this album came out. He sung like this on Metal Rendez-Vous (1979) and Hardware(1981). Of course, the first Brian Johnson (AC/DC) album (Back In Black) did not come out until 1980. So now you critics can do the math, 1979 is earlier than 1980, right? So according to your logic Brian Johnson copied Marc Storace. Yes, that is right, your observations were totally absurd. Don't review an album, based on, if it sounds similar or not to another band. Base it on the quality of the album.

Now to my review, if you like head banging rock and roll, this album is definitely there. I don't know of any Krokus album that isn't worth buying. One Vice at a Time has the hit Long Stick Goes Boom which received a lot of Radio play. But the other songs on here really rock. Great vocals and great guitar work make this one of my favorites. Also check out "The Blitz", "Headhunter" and "Alive and Screamin" , you won't be disappointed.

THIS ROCKS HARD !!!.......2004-06-28

Yes it does sound like AC/DC a lot, but I don't care. It's still heavy and it rocks hard! I've always liked this band, and they've put out some really good stuff over the years, such as "Metal Rendezvous" and "Headhunter". Overall, this is probably my favorite LP from the band. "Long stick goes boom", "Playin the outlaw","Bad boys,rag dolls" are all heavy,catchy tracks. Forget the similarities, just enjoy this for what it is: kick a** rock and roll

Far from their best.......2003-05-20

"One vice at time" is a very rattling album - too noisy and too loud. Maybe they all (band, producer, record company) thought this is how heavy metal should sound like, but I strongly believe they kind of destroyed many good song with this production. The previous "Hardware" is so much better, even if "One vice at a time" includes the great "Playing the outlaw", "Down the drain" (a song with high potential), and a good cover choice in "American woman".

... This album is nonetheless mostly for dedicated Krokus fans.

One of the best AC/DC albums with Brian Johnson.......2003-04-04

Other than "Back in Black," the AC/DC albums with Brian Johnson are lacking compared to those with Bon Scott at the mic. However, this was the first Krokus album I heard back in the early eighties, and Marc Storace's vocals match those of Brian Johnson, although I believe that Storace's vocals are a bit easier to understand.

Every song on here is great. "Long Stick Goes Boom" has the same feel as "Shoot to Thrill", "Bad Boys and Rag Dolls" is just plain straight-ahead AC/DC, and "Playing the Outlaw" gets closer to Bon Scott than Brian Johnson ever has.

Over all, it's a great rock album and shouldn't be discounted because it sounds like AC/DC. Rick Rubin was producing records that sounded like AC/DC in the late 80's/early 90's (see The Cult's "Electric" and The Four Horsemen's self-titled) but you didn't hear anybody complaining about THOSE albums.
