For the first time in 25 years, all the original members of the legendary Swiss metal band Krokus are working on a new album. The band will take a break from the studio August 5 to perform in a summer festival in their native Switzerland. Commenting about the break, bassist Chris Von Rohr (who is also producing) said: "It's always good to stop working in the studio for a moment and lose some sweat on stage. We most likely will play one or two new songs live and compare how they stand up against the best we already have from our back catalogue. The fans reaction at the concert will tell us. We call that the 'Platinum-Stage-Test-Son-Of-A-Gun.'" Singer Mark Storace said:  "We shall perform on the eve of a full-moon summer sky, when the spirit is naturally high. Open-air festivals are very special because they vibrate warm human feelings combined with a mystical touch. The promoters did well to call it the Magic Night." No further details about the album or any additional shows have been released.
