De Lyckliga Kompisarna, often abbreviated as DLK, is a Swedish punk rock band noted for their upbeat and often humorous songs, often addressing social and political issues. The band, whose name translates to "The Happy Friends" in English, was formed in 1989 by frontman Mart Hällgren who was soon joined by like-minded musicians to create a distinctive sound within the Nordic punk scene. Known for their energetic live shows and a dedicated fan base, De Lyckliga Kompisarna disbanded in 1997, but reformed in 2008 much to the delight of their fans.

Like many punk bands, their music contains a blend of raw energy and catchy melodies, but it's their lyrics that often resonate most with their audience. De Lyckliga Kompisarna's recent releases like "Pengar Har Inga Ögon" and "Martin I Skitlandet" continue to showcase their ability to blend humor with commentary on everyday life and societal norms. With songs such as "Välj din verklighet" and "Bara tiden är ny," they have demonstrated staying power in the Scandinavian music scene, continuing to speak to new generations while staying true to the ethos of their punk roots. Their body of work includes both powerful, fast-paced anthems and melodic introspections that have cemented their place in the annals of Swedish punk music.
