Apocalypse Dudes
Encyclopedia : A : AP : APO : Apocalypse Dudes
Apocalypse Dudes is the 1998 album from "death-punk" band Turbonegro.
The album is composed and put together in an extravagant way, starting slowly with "The Age of Pamparius", and ending in a rock-explosion with "Good Head".
Before Apocalypse Dudes, Turbonegro was a kind of underground band, but after the release of this album, their popularity exploded. Alas, they broke up only a few months after the release, but they came together again in 2002, closely followed by the release of Scandinavian Leather.
Apocalypse Dudes is often regarded by fans as the band's greatest achievement.
