Als Burning Heart kürzlich ankündigte, zwei neue Bands unter Vertrag zu nehmen, kamen sofort Gerüchte auf, dass eine davon Turbonegro sein könnten. Dies wurde nun vom Label bestätigt. (Siehe Kommentare oder hier)
Burning Heart Records is proud to present the signing of TURBONEGRO.
Turbonegro, surely the most threatening combo to ever leave the fjords of Norway, the band spent a good ten years wreaking havoc on rock'n'roll, sexual stereotypes, European and American stages, as well as their own bodies and minds, before dissolving in the waiting room of a psychiatric emergency ward in Milan, Italy 1998.
Before the split up, TURBONEGRO released numerous earth shattering & life- changing records as "Apocalypse Dudes", "Never Is Forever" and "Ass Cobra" to mention a few. Many consider them the founders of Scandinavian Rock.
The band reformed in the summer of 2002, making unforgettable appearances on the "Res-Erection Tour", headlining at Festivals in Sweden (Hultsfred), Norway (Quart) and Germany (Bizarre).
After the successful Festival tour, the band has decided to make a new album that will be recorded this fall and be released by Burning Heart Records worldwide in the Spring of 2003.
-"I am extremely proud to see TURBONEGRO on the label" says Burning Heart Records Head of A&R / Managing Director Peter Ahlqvist. I think their album "Apocalypse Dudes" is one of the most important albums released during the 90's, and their decision to make a new album is excellent news".
-"We are very happy to have signed with Burning Heart, and chose them - instead of the shitty multi-national labels that were trying to sign us - due to their general good looks and long-time dedication to the Scandinavian underground", says bass player Happy-Tom.
-"There's always been an uncontrollable dark force driving the band forward, I guess recording a new album was inevitable", says Rune Rebellion, guitarist.
schlagt mich... bestraft mich... foltert mich... denn kann mir jemand sagen, wer turbonegro genau sind - besser gesagt, welche musik sie machen. hab schon oft von ihnen "gehört"; jedoch nicht ihre musik.
da bin ich ja mal mehr als gespannt ein paar konzerte ist das eine - ein neus album ist was ganz anderes. ich bin da ja jetzt eher skeptisch - ich wittere da eher "scheiße, wir haben keine kohle mehr, lass und mal wieder was machen" ist selten passiert dass mich eine band nach einer reunion noch genauso begeistern konnten wie davor
