Hardware (Krokus album)

Hardware is the fifth studio album by the Swiss hard rock band Krokus. It did not match the success of their previous album, Metal Rendez-vous, going only Gold in Switzerland. However, the album entered the charts in the US, UK and other European countries.

The 1981 exploitation film Mad Foxes features the songs "Easy Rocker" and "Celebration".

UK-based company Rock Candy Records reissued the album on CD in 2014.
