- Killer ist eine Schweizer Hard-Rock-Band aus Solothurn. Die Band feierte ihre grössten Erfolge zu Beginn der 1980er Jahre und galt als unmittelbare Konkurrenz zu Krokus. Im Gegensatz zu ihnen blieb Killer der internationale Durchbruch jedoch verwehrt. Durch ihre stilistische Nähe zu AC/DC musste die Band einiges an Kritik einstecken, ein Schicksal welches sich Killer mit Krokus teilen. (de)
- Killer is a Swiss heavy metal group founded in 1979 by guitarist Edgar "Crown" Kocher after a 3-year stint with the band Kaktus. Kocher's trademark is wearing striped prison garb on stage. Between 1981 and 1986, Killer released 4 studio albums but always remained in the shadows of their more successful Solothurn contemporaries Krokus. After the release of their 1986 album, Young Blood, the band disbanded. Kocher re-activated the group for the first time in 2002 and has continued with Killer off and on ever since despite health problems and frequent line-up changes. On May 25, 2019, Killer released Screamgunn, their first new album in 33 years. (en)
