Krokus - Eat The Rich

[Niggas1116]

lol why did I click this expecting to see a cover of MotorHeads song Eat the Rich

[Liquidlizar]

10 people are rich.

[TommyHolly1]

I always wondered what happened to Jack's friend "Larry" from the TV Show "3's Company"!?

[msdeeleon]

i believe thisis there here best album live recording!!!!

[msdeeleon]

long livE METALLLLL~!

[MrGreg433]

Back in the 80's when I first heard the singer - This guy could sing for ACDC as he sounds like Bon Scott.

[mully2point0]

first time ever hearing krokus. awesome! why didnt i listen to them the first time i heard of them?

[DahmersDiner]

Eat the rich....the bitch!

[klpziggy7800]

very nice... i remember seeing this live ,,,,,



[blondedbythelight703]

...from the Headhunters album. I think I got that one!

[johnstonebreaker]

Out of the palace and into the ditch!!! Absolutely god damn right!

[johnstonebreaker]

AWWWWW YEAH! That is some high quality live recording!

[SuperKiki1019]

This song really needs to be re-released with the current state of things today. Rich folks in the US paying ZERO taxes and working folks taking cuts.

[johnstonebreaker]

@SuperKiki1019 God damn right!!!

[okinawa1990to2001]

@SuperKiki1019

I absolutely agree. BS what is going on now. I wonder what the rich were thinking back in 83? We are going to give the politicians a beat down if this crap doesn't change!!!

[geertwildersful]

NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL GODDAMNED FUCKING REAL MUSIC

[applephone]

holy hell i fucking love his shirt!!! i bet he paid 999,999,999.87 cent for that shirt!! oh paris hilton would sooo buy that shirt!!!!

[dpeab11370]

I'm starting a list now...BEST AFRO's in ROCK / METAL:

1) This dude

2) Brian May from Queen

3) Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy

4) Ozzy (circa 83'...Bark at the Moon era) LOL!!

5) Everyone in Twisted Sister!

[BeatPete]

@dpeab11370 His TeeShirt is awesome too hahaha

[ArcanineRules250]

@dpeab11370 And then me when I hopefully get famous with my band! \m/ :]

[coffey95megadeth]

@dpeab11370 the singer is Marc Storace. he was also the guy who made Vesuvius that was in the movie "the rocker", but he did it in 1986, and they only made 2 songs (promised land, and pompeii nights) which they also used in the rocker. and AC/DC offered him to be the new singer after Bon Scott died, because he sounds like him a lot, but he refused the offer

[gamachan73]

Great Rock' n' Roll ! HeadBanging Go on !

[DarkRonin21]

Have to say, while I'm a fan of Krokus and this style of music, this is my third favorite song entitled Eat the Rich. Behind Aerosmith and Motorhead

[geo6892000]

Brings back memories of my youth

[shreff69]

I saw them on the Eat the Rich tour with Loverboy ~ my first concert - - and it was AWESOME ! !

[ribeirofan63]

these guys are beyond kick ass!!, i wanna see em live!!!

[impellernut]

Krokus sucks but I have to admit storace would have been much better than brian johnsons non singing ass.Ac dc would have been better with him in the band and they could actually play old acdc songs, brian johnson had some good hits with acdc but his ability to do bon scott songs is non existent and storace could do it

[supertruckertom]

80's Baby!!!!!!!  No Auto Tune back then.

You actually had to have a voice.

[KAIL166]

Does this band still plays or they got seperated

[MrGoblin60]

And I suppose they themselves got rich by singing about eating the rich. More than a little hypocrisy there.

[roberthipp3]

Krokus kicked ass...

[snakekramer]

The hamer scarab is one of those most eighties looking guitars of all the eighties

[stellastarr69]

All very good points and I agree with all of them.

[blklab32]

back when america was free in the day. fk u pelosi in 2010 btch.

[FEDhardrock]

what a voice

what a band

what a song

what times!!!

[timjessa1]

[musiclovr2]

[beecee151]

Storace and Krokus are icons....love em. Id say 5 yrs. from now still rocking houses.

[MerryBathCelestial]

[Thebearcat66]

[prsngal]

I LOVED THIESE GUYS!!!

[rick196436]

[youboobman]

MARC STORACE WITH AC/DC WOULD BE AWESOME!

[Hoey42]

Headhunter was their finest by a long way

[murdertoy]

Lol sounds like bon scott

[GM0530]

ahh the 80s memories this brings back

[MorbidReligion]

"Eat the rich, eat the rich, don't you know life is a bitch?

Eat the rich, eat the rich, out of the palace and into the ditch!"

One of my favourite lyrics EVERRR.

[Dj1nky]

Sounds like Bon Fucking Scott!!!!!!! and brothers of AC/DC

[deagla2]

Resist the Illuminati's Borg agenda, grow a herb/beg garden!

[Bond007Brian]

its time for krokus to come back what do u guys say.....we need this music... brian 007

[axmen9]

Wow, remember when musicians could actually play their guitars, sing in tune, and actually have an album consistant all the way thru!! I miss great music, now all we have is rap or death, oh and Nicklecrap!

[fastnewbie]

@axmen9 AMEN!

[antonio123827]

just boguht this on vinyl for 5$ @ goodwill.

what a deal!

[davesouzamyspace]

awesome...gotta love the red Hamer guitar...The Scarab I believe, I want one!!

[the313v]

fozzy 's performance is better!

[rustkeeper]

Out of the Levis and into the Bitch! how we rolled in the 80'S

[thunderdeed]

Saw this tour.They opened for Sammy Hagar on the VOA tour. Also saw them on "Once Vice At A Time" tour. Kick Ass.

[bulltexan1]

OUT of the palace,,and INTO the ditch!!!

Thx for postin...

[ComaAlpha]

Krokus may have wrote it, but Jericho and Fozzy perfected it. Personally I like Chris Jericho's vocals better.

[rogerely]

Fuckin right!

[FlyingTomahawk666]

glam is shit

krokus rocks

[danny1964ilovefilas]

10 stars hardrock and scrapmom i have the same feeling

i will add some more UFO, rainbow, dokken

the good old days  hahahaha

[hinder5050]

i have a feeling....glam is coming back...

[ThisIsBilbo]

Krokus wasn't "glam"...glam was all those bleach-blonde poseur fags with hairspray, spandex, plastic songs and no talent that polluted the airwaves in the late 80's, before GnR and Nirvane/Seatlle destroyed them forever...thank God!

[aibangmaini]

Uh, dude? Krokus tried being one of those bands...watch the Midnight Maniac video if you don't believe me. The metal people shunned them after that, and the MTV fans didn't take to them and that's when they fell off the face of the earth....

[lonerocker08]

yeah but their back with a new album coming out in feburary 26th

[FlyingTomahawk666]

what in the time when this came back. this band is way old !

[ffoeg6]

that's a great shirt the singer is wearing. i'm going to go flush my face in a vat of lsd.

[scrapmom65]

I miss the '80's! Those were the best years for concerts.......Maiden, Priest, Crue, Halen, and of course, Krokus!

[smakudown2001]

seen em all

[muriellucille]

best freakin awesome old schoo[lr rocks

[JasonL77]

It seems like a lot of bands have a song called Eat The Rich. Krokus, Motorhead, Aerosmith. I'm sure there's more.

[barry8844]

Yeah? Who has the best song??? KROKUS!!!

[Furon09395]

Motörhead

[Schenker1067]

I saw them in 84 in Dortmund.. Priest, Maiden, Scorps, Leppard, Ozzy, Riot, MSG...

Awesome.. they kick the shit !!

[TorPete64]

The SINGER is from Malta EU & his name is Mark Storace ... He Rocks!!

[wiimanking]

DOES ANYONE NOTICE THAT THE SINGER SOUNDS A LITTLE LIKE BON SCOTT FROM AC/DC???????????

good song too

[chadgarland]

hell ya bon scott was the man.

[robertgoul]

saw them co head line w/ blackfoot in poughkeepsie this song was the highlight of the show

[MILWAUKEELOCOTROL24]

godamn! they kick ass live!!!!! krokus *****

[jonsilence]

My fave Krokus tune....no doubt, the singer was very influenced by Bon Scott, and would've made a good replacement in AC/DC when Bon left us.....

[doomvi]

I saw them on a bill with Def Leppard and Gary Moore during the Pyromania/Headhunter/Corridors Of Power tour. They were actually very good, as good as Leppard at that time.

[lamtpe]

that guy sounds like Bon Scott... great voice too

[wiimanking]

EXACTLY

[wiimanking]

lamtpe is right!!!!!

[okrabay]

I dont remember them coming to teh states much but i'm sure they did.

must have played smaller venues

[hotforjpn]

Bunch of "Hasbeens".. Where are they now??? Oh yeah, flippin burgers at Fatburger.. No mustard on my burger looser

[ffoeg6]

better than flippin cum off the tip of your tounge.

[hotforjpn]

You should know.

[Atheistprimate]

Does it somehow make utter losers like yourself feel better trolling videos of people who where a top band for years?

And no you eight subs on your Asian fetish page does not help your case that you are anything but a total nobody and always will be.

[hotforjpn]

Yada, Yada, Yada, Just face it you little piece of fecal matter, you like of bunch of "Hasbeens".. Dammit!!! NO cheese on that burger you little burger.

[vanillabear1989]

One of the best Eurometal Bands ever

[juliyjacke]

der Krokus...

[sweenykim]

\m/

[carapils1]

I'm with U on that, JohnnyStorm! He should have! R.I.P, Bon!

[Blothus]

One of the best Swiss Rock Bands ever.

[Zombieclowns104]

the only swiss rock band,lol

[77REVOLTFORAFRIKA77]

@Blothus THE BEST TELL SOME OTHER GOOD EXCEPT GOTTHARD:

[JohnnyStorm2007]

Storace should have been the one to have replaced Bon Scott (R.I.P.), anyone with me on this one?

[bridgeman11]

I can see that.

[ladiezroom]

yeah,johnnystorm, i´m absolutely with you-- that´s even what i thought way back in 1980!

[ericcarr21]

@JohnnyStorm2007 hell yeah

[Blackenise89]

@JohnnyStorm2007 well acdc found a pretty good singer too that matched the good old acdc vocal but storace voice rocks too man! proud to be an swiss guy because this is a swiss band ;-)

[jerseyanimall]

@JohnnyStorm2007 I do like Brian Johnson but to be honest Storace sounds MORE like Bon Scott, so if that would have happened; it would have been kick ass for sure. Brian yells but Marc sings.

[BartSmith85]

@JohnnyStorm2007 Absolutely agree! Not even the voice, but also the look & stage presentation!

[Mentalplix]

@JohnnyStorm2007 I think Brian Johnson was a great replacement. Long live Krokus!

[guitarshredderwilly]

@JohnnyStorm2007 I would have never thought of that but he would have probably did a great job lol

[utooberblooper]

@JohnnyStorm2007

thats right on the money,i know its an old post but this guy sounds dead ringer for acdc bigtime ,kinda like bon scott crossed with brian johnston,see ya man !!!

[brehenya]

@utooberblooper  yes he does sound like brian johnson big time

[1annoyingpaparazzi]

Storace is a legend, but he's too much like bon scott to replace bon scott. It would almost be insulting to him to have someone so alike, I think Brian Johnson is a fucking legend, he, along with all of us has great respect for The great Late bon scott (rip) but takes the band in a cool direction

[jmzt69]

@JohnnyStorm2007 YES YES YES

[stellastarr69]

@JohnnyStorm2007 I kinda agree, but I really like Brian Johnson. Johnson's personality definetly fits with the rest of the band, and I'm not so sure Storace's would have. Plus Storace was offered the job but he turned it down because he thought Krokus were on the verge of breaking big. I'm glad it turned out the way it did, although I always wonder what it would have sounded like with Storace on vocals.

[meshade]

@stellastarr69

I think it turned out ok, Back In Black is one of the top selling albums of all time!

I always wonder if AC/DC would have become as big as they did if Bon had not passed away because Back In Black was written mostly with him in mind.

Hell's Bell's is the first song Brian ever wrote and that is a pretty strong first timer!

All that being said no one could replace Bon's swaggrer!

[KingDiamond1966]

@JohnnyStorm2007 YEAH I SAID THE SAME THING BACK IN 1982!! WHEN YOU LISTENED TO THE "HEADHUNTER" ALBUM, YOU COULD CLOSE YOUR EYES & IMAGINE THAT THIS IS HOW BON SCOTT WOULD HAVE SOUNDED, AS HE LEFT BEHIND THE SOUTHERN ROCK SOUND OF "HIGHWAY TO HELL",......AND ENTERED THE 1980'S, INTO A NEW SOUND CALLED, "HEAVY METAL"! MARC STORACE SOUNDED ALOT LIKE BON SCOTT WHEN HE SANG, BUT WHAT SEPARATED THE TWO, WAS THAT STORACE ALSO HAD "GREAT VOICE RANGE"! LIKE THE FINAL SCREAM ON "HEADHUNTER"!

[aalton]

@JohnnyStorm2007 Yes and no. With him in ac/dc we don't get this song or the headhunter record. Love Brian, but marc would've been a better replacement

[TheZepmeister]

@JohnnyStorm2007 If I remember right Storace was invited to audition with them but he himself said,"I think Krokus is gonna be much bigger", so he turned it down.You gotta remember AC/DC were just starting to really take off when Bon died, they still were'nt that big a deal in the U.S. yet, so I could see Storace logic at the time,I don't feel it was arrogance on his part.I think he woulda been a good replacement too!

[frambrianna]

Hell yea Krokus!! A classic metal show!!

[METALSHACKFilms]

Awesome! this reminds me of my rock show

"The Metalshack" my air name was "Metalmaster"

back home in Salinas,CA on KHDC 90.9FM..back in the 80's

[bumporama]

the difference between krokus and ACDC is Angus Young played some memorable riffs, unlike this whammy bar magician.

[wazziboy]

A duet with Marc Storace and Brian Johnson.....i say no more.

[wazziboy]

A duet with Marc Storace and Brian Johnson.....i say no more.

[Stryongo]

Aerosmith, Motorhead, and Krokus each have a different song called Eat the Rich. Go figure.

[8592534444]

But Lemmy has a co co puff on his face.

[sk8er695]

lmaooo

[conjugg]

you need half a brain to listen to to krokus lol, now why dont you go n play in the snow

[sicklizard10]

You suck!!!

[swissdude]

You are a native english speaker and still talk like a donkey? Every baby could form more intelligent sentences...

How about you listen to whatever boygroup you think is cool, and let the rest of us enjoy music that we like. Where's the need of pissing everybody off just because you don't like a band?

[conjugg]

just stick to makin cuckko clocks and leave the rock music to native english speakers

[swissdude]

How about you leave talking to people who still have half a brain left?

[BarbarianBard]

Great song.

[conjugg]

the swiss do not make rock music,this so cheap n tacky and an insult to be compared to ac/dc, krokus are like vanilla ice was to rap

[swissdude]

the swiss do not make rock music? how fucking racist is that? every country has good rockbands, what the fuck does the heritage have to do with anything? and comparing krokus with vanilla ice is a goddamn insult, of course they took stuff from dc, but they had a lot of innovative songs as well so consider your words better next time

[UrukTheRed]

They're so much of an insult to AC/DC that AC/DC actually asked Marc Storace to replace Bon Scott before they asked Brian Johnson. Why don't you learn a thing or two about rock/metal, then start leaving comments?

[fbcoachg]

ROCK'in

[fbcoachg]

Best AC/DC clone band ever

[LucanWolfMusic]

Real rock. Not this goatee baggy shorts t shirt maggot suck rock that's out today.

[PunknotGothxx]

eat the rich a bitch eat the rich a bitch dont u no life is a bitch GO KROKUS LoL

[conjugg]

wat a load of crap this is , the swiss should stick to what they best, making cukoo clocks and chocolate , coz this the worst rock music i have ever heard , and i love rock ,but anyone who like this is ,well mental

[LucanWolfMusic]

Shut up.

Krokus ownes you.

Go listen to your Nsync.

[swissdude]

Yeah right, and everybody in america is fat and every asian guy is a math genius...

Keep your stereotypes to yourself and listen to the music

[basilvonbitburg]

Rocks, but where is the early stuff? Need something from the first two or three albums! Before the hair managers got involved ...

[suckassmule]

Krokus will be touring US this summer in July @ Rocklahoma... BE THERE!!

[WeedEric]

Awesome krokus is the best Swiss band there is.

the singer put together a new crew and brouth a new album out nothing like thes hits but still unike. saw them about two weeks ago live

Krokus 4 ever

[coronet67]

Awesome, I love Spinal Tap.

[nixonvigano]

masterpiece!Krokus rules!

[whompus02]

Didnt that singer used to be in Air Supply?

[beecee151]

Very funny. Check out their 2006 live stuff on this site. They sound as well or better! Krokus Rocks!

[mtlhead1966]

seen them in 82 pittsburgh civic arena,heavymetal marathon with gary moore they kicked ass!!

[thehockeyguy66]

I grew up in Pittsburgh and was at that show. Def Leppard was the headliner.

[mtlhead1966]

im still in pittsburgh did you also see ufo iron maiden and judas priest

[christeribaren]

Krokus rules hard. My favorites from that nice 1980...

[VaggelisLamia]

Krokus!

[chrltylr40]

Saw these guys open for Kiss in the 80's and they kicked ass, so did Kiss. It was so loud the ceiling tiles in the Coliseum started falling on the crowd. Never forget it! You guys are right. Music much better back then in the Metal arena.

[Ljutomer]

Hell yeah! I was there! Never mind the spandex and hairdos. Check out the bod on that wee Maltese fucker! Listen to that voice, and that fucking backbeat! Incredible! Today we get fat fucks with goatees and backwards baseball caps pretending to be hard. This is the real deal!

[realreal541]

wer hats erfunden, die schweizer

[svaran]

love playing this sopng with the band I used to play in. Awesome song

[swissdude]

Hell yeah, I love this fucking song! Damn, I love the whole band. Wish the days of real music would come back.

[Sirion123]

Cool song, and great Spinal Tap moment at 2:02

[Motleybrewcrew]

HELLS YES!

[jcclester]

still kicks ass after 20? years

[swissdude]

I wish the world of today was more like this...I'll never forget how those 5 guys went out to rock the world - don't forget that they come from a tiny european country named switzerland where yodeling was more popular than metal (figuratelivetly (??) speaking. Ok except storace who is from malta, but being as he is, he's swiss to me.

Rock.

[fatozzy]

ya he needs to al sharpton that fro

[timinla64]
