The Blitz is heavy metal and hard rock band Krokus' eighth album. It became a gold album in the United States. While preparing to record it, Patrick Mahassen had been tapped to join the band on guitar, Mark Kohler having switched to bass. Mahassen did not join, and the album was recorded as a quartet; Tommy Keiser played bass on the subsequent tour.
