The Carburetors is a Norwegian hard rock band from Oslo, formed in 2001.[1][2] Their music is based on boogie rock and roll and heavy metal and has been described as a mix of Chuck Berry and Motörhead.[3][4][5]

History

The band released their first album Pain Is Temporary, Glory Is Forever on FaceFront Records in 2004 after several singles on CD and 7".[6][7] Two video-tracks were produced from the album,[citation needed] and the one for "Burnout" was the second most-aired music video in Norway during summer 2003.[7]

Their second album Loud Enough to Raise the Dead was released in March 2006.[5] The music video for "Rock 'n' Roll Forever" was filmed at Oslo Spektrum and director by Bjørn Opsahl, who had also directed the video for "Burnout."[8] Also in 2005, they contributed to the Kiss tribute album Gods of Thunder: A Norwegian Tribute to Kiss and Leaving Home - A Norwegian Tribute to the Ramones.[9][10][11]

The Carburetors released their third album Rock'n'Roll Forever, which featured nine old and six new songs, on Bodog Records in 2008.[11] Because this album was only available in Norway, it was re-released in 2010 to the rest of Europe via Evil Wheels Records.[11] They signed a new record deal with I Hate People Records and a publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing in 2011.[12]

The following year, they participated in the Melodi Grand Prix 2012, where Norway chose its representative for the Eurovision Song Contest 2012.[13][14] Along with Reidun Sæther and Nora Foss Al-Jabri, they advanced to the Grand Final for their song "Don't Touch the Flame," but were ultimately eliminated in the first round.[15][14] In 2015, they released their eleven-song album Laughing in the Face of Death which, unlike other albums that edit instruments together in post-production, was performed in a studio and recorded as one might record a live album.[13]
