Turbonegro, often hailed as a cornerstone of the Scandinavian rock scene, is a Norwegian band known for their unique blend of rock music that incorporates elements of punk rock, hard rock, and glam rock. The group was formed in Oslo in 1989, and quickly became infamous for their outrageous stage presence, satirical lyrics, and the subversion of rock clichés. They coined their own genre, "deathpunk," to describe their raucous sound, which is characterized by its raw energy, catchy hooks, and anthemic choruses.

The band's journey through the rock landscape has been marked by a series of critically acclaimed albums, including "Apocalypse Dudes" (1998), hailed by many as a high-water mark of late 20th-century rock, and "Scandinavian Leather" (2003). Despite experiencing several lineup changes over the years, Turbonegro has preserved its core identity, with albums like "Party Animals" (2005), "Retox" (2007), and "Sexual Harassment" (2012) maintaining their position at the forefront of the international rock scene. The band's fusion of irreverent humor and punk-inflected rock continues to win over fans worldwide, solidifying Turbonegro's status as icons of the underground music scene. Their 2018 album, "ROCKNROLL MACHINE," signifies the band's unwavering commitment to their musical evolution while still delivering the powerful riffs and tongue-in-cheek humor that their fans have come to expect.
