Biography

Switzerland's hard rock band Krokus rose to fame in the 1980s with hits like "Screaming in the Night" and "Midnite Maniac," mixing original anthems with well-received covers. Despite lineup changes and genre shifts, including embracing pop-metal, they continued to release chart-topping albums like Hoodoo and Big Rocks. Krokus officially disbanded in 2021 after a successful farewell tour.

Formed in 1974 in Solothurn, Switzerland, Krokus evolved from prog rock to a harder sound influenced by AC/DC, solidifying their reputation through relentless touring. Their breakthrough came with albums like One Vice at a Time and Headhunter, which yielded hits like "Screaming in the Night" and "Eat the Rich." Despite ups and downs, including label changes and member departures, Krokus stayed active, culminating in a final tour and the release of Adios Amigos: Live at Wacken in 2021.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
