	Apocalypse Dudes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Apocalypse Dudes is the 1998 album from "death-punk" band Turbonegro.
		Before Apocalypse Dudes, Turbonegro was a kind of underground band, but after the release of this album, their popularity exploded.
		Apocalypse Dudes is often regarded by fans as the band's greatest achievement.

	ROCKZONE.COM: CD Reviews: Turbonegro - Apocalypse Dudes
		Apocalypse Dudes starts off in a great way, with the 6 minute opener, "The Age of Pamparius." You won't believe that the song deals with a pizza place, but hey, that's Turbonegro.
		Apocalypse Dudes closes on a positive note with the great song "Good Head." Basically, the song deals with a kid who wants, well, you get the point.
		Apocalypse Dudes is an excellent album, and while I can't agree that it's one of the best albums ever, it's definitely one worth a listen.

	The Odyssey: Nintinnitus
		I bought Turbonegro's "Apocalypse Dudes", and it was everything that people said Turbonegro were about--a tight, energetic, vicious rock n' roll band.
		As a matter of fact, putting into words what makes "Apocalypse Dudes" so fucking good is almost a futile effort, because it's one of those experiences that is so perfectly executed, that if everyone knew the formula in the first place, they'd be doing it by now anyway.
		This is not to say that they didn't have the gay themes on their previous album "Ass Cobra", but on "Dudes", they fully embraced their homoerotic themes, and took it way over the top, as they did in turn with the attitude and sound of the record.

	Turbonegro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jello Biafra would later comment that it was one of the best punk albums of the 90s.
		Apocalypse Dudes' combination of 70's arena rock, irreverent lyrics, and punk stylings brought the band a level of notoriety that they had not achieved at any other point in their history.
		During the next four years, the band members would rarely speak, however the momentum from their previous albums (most especially Ass Cobras and Apocalypse Dudes) would continue to grow as more and more music fans would get turned onto their music.

	In Music We Trust - Turbonegro: Ass Cobra -and- Apocalypse Dudes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		"Apocalypse Dudes" was both welcome and unexpected, doing double duty by tempering a previously out of control sound, furthering the inescapability of the intellect behind it.
		"Apocalypse Dudes" spoke volumes to who this band was, where they wanted to go, and the means they would take to get there regardless of how many minds were littered in the process.
		Bottom line is one of Rock's unheralded greats is back on the hog they abruptly hopped off five years before, fully determined to leave a new trail of mud tracks over the back of corporate clones and programmable safe-player types who know nothing of underground appeal, let alone success in longevity.

	Live & On Record \| Turbonegro (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		A swerve away from their masterful ’98 denim-glorifying deathpunk opus Apocalypse Dudes (newly reissued on Epitaph), the new tune neatly summed up the demonic, homoerotic ’80s: Alice’s Prince of Darkness meets Turbo/Ram It Down—era Judas Priest.
		An album as glamorous as it is punishing, and as bizarrely alluring as a Dictators/Mercyful Fate double bill set in a gay biker bar, it showed up as an import in 1998 and promptly converted almost everyone who heard it into raving evangelists for the emerging Scandinavian hard-rock underground.
		Behind Hank, the rest of Turbonegro were dolled up in their best Dudes finery (we got a darkside Village People: soldier, hayseed, cowboy, cop, sailor) and playing as if they’d never left.

	Daily Vault - April 4, 2003
		The two new "dudes" that emerged in the band's line-up were Euroboy (Knut Schreiner), a classic rock-inspired lead guitarist, and Chris Summers, the new drummer, who both proved to be essential additions as the band blazed a new punk n' roll path to success.
		Coupled with the atmospheric sounds and opening notes of the first track, "The Age of Pamparius," the whispering of the lines, "From the ashes of this golden age of confusion, the denim recruits came to be known as the apocalypse dudes….", a new sound was born.
		With Epitaph's recent re-release of Apocalypse Dudes, this CD wouldn't be complete without noting the bonus material including videos of "Get it On" and "Are You Ready (For Some Darkness)" and 2002 Quart Festival footage of "The Age of Pamparius" being thrown in.

		Apocalypse Dudes (Burning Heart) This is some ugly shit, no question about it.
		Of this pair of reissues, 1999's Apocalypse Dudes is definitely the stronger, with songs harkening back to Cheap Trick and Alice Cooper.
		Apocalypse Dudes would fall into the self-conscious cheesiness of Spinal Tap if it didn't rock with such full-throttle ferocity.

		Distinctly punk yet shimmering with rock and roll flamboyance, TURBONEGRO's Apocalypse Dudes is a timeless classic that, with the assistance of this more widely distributed reissue, arguably deserves to rank atop the list of greatest rock albums ever.
		Musically, Apocalypse Dudes straddles the tightrope between THE RAMONES and KISS.
		Apocalypse Dudes, however, is musically worlds apart from its "death punk" predecessors largely due to the addition of Knut Schreiner (a.k.a.

		And yet when an epic track like "The Age Of Pamparius" comes blaring from their "Apocalypse Dudes" breakthrough, or classics like "Get It On" or "Rock Against Ass" hook you in, evidence shows there's plenty to sink yer teeth into if little else left to judge.
		Ask not why they are not bigger than they are, rather, astonish at the fact that anyone this side of Northern Europe has a remote clue as to their existence.
		So after a well aimed pelvic thrust through most of the '90s that culminated in their finest ("Apocalypse") hour and five year period of self-destruction, they rise again, bigger and better than before and pointing straight at the ear of an ever-growing legion of fans who wouldn't let them die.

	Turbonegro : Apocalypse Dudes - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		When other European rockers of the '90s were being influenced by Pearl Jam, Sevendust, or Radiohead, Oslo, Norway's Turbonegro decided to provide a throwback to the decadent, hedonistic glam metal, heavy metal, and hard rock of the '70s and '80s.
		Combine the influence of punk rock with traces of Alice Cooper, Mötley Crüe, Judas Priest, or Quiet Riot, and you've got Apocalypse Dudes, an in-your-face album that thrives on wild, rowdy, bratty fun.
		In fact, it's hard to miss the parallels between Apocalypse Dudes and Spinal Tap.

		"Apocalypse Dudes" is one of the rare albums that really has no songs worthy of skipping over.
		From the ashes of this golden age of confusion, the denim recruits came to be known as the apocalypse dudes.
		So begins the first song from the classic album “Apocalypse Dudes” by Norwegian rockers Turbonegro, a band that helped create a totally new genre, which came to be known as “deathpunk.” The band has been around in one shape or another, with one name or another, since the late 1980’s.

		These dudes were on some crazy punk Floyd shit, unleashing a shaky, shit-fi cosmic crash-test of abrasive guitar skronk, amphetamine hustle and budgetronic UFO noise.
		The pomp and circumstance and majestic rock of ’98’s Apocalypse Dudes is all here but the fist is clenched tighter this time around, with more straightahead punk rawk.
		As rocking as this is, it doesn’t eclipse the über-rock of Apocalypse Dudes.

	BigYawn.net :: Turbonegro :..: Party Animals
		Turbonegro's Apocalypse Dudes is, to date, the second greatest rock n' roll record of all time, and after listening to Party Animals, it is clear to me that Turbonegro has gone the way of Axl and Co. Turbonegro are past their prime.
		Although Party Animals is certainly no Spaghetti Incident and is in fact, far superior to the highly anticipated and poorly received Scandinavian Leather, it doesn’t hold a candle to Apocalypse Dudes and nothing they do from now on probably ever will.
		While Turbonegro's decline mirrors Gn'R almost to a "T," (only on a smaller scale, obviously) their rise to the top couldn't be further from it.

	Epitaph Records
		Turbonegro Apocalypse Dudes Rating: 8.6/10 Before the hype, I unknowingly stumbled upon Turbonegro's daunting physiognomy when a friend, visiting...
		In their decade together, Turbonegro released at least two classic records: Ass Cobra (1996) and Apocalypse Dudes (1997), both reissued by Epitaph in 2003.
		On Apocalypse Dudes, the addition of guitarist Euroboy and new drummer Chris Summers yields a denser sound: check out the constant guitar tapping on "Get It On", and the ponderous, nearly Yes expansiveness of "The Age of Pamparious".

		With the recent re-release of of Turbonegro's last two masterpieces "Ass Cobra" and "Apocalypse Dudes" on Epitaph, it seems that 2003 could very well be the year Turbonegro rise from the underground and rocks North America like they deserve.
		It is difficult for me to place a rating on this album because it may change after I have the actual disk in my hands and the ability to play it over and over.
		If they had tried to write 12 more songs in the style of Apocalypse Dudes that would have gotten really boring...plus, there is a lot more variety on this album then any of the previous.

	filter magazine - reviews - Turbonegro
		I cannot for the life of me figure out why Epitaph is re-releasing Turbonegro’s 1998 album Apocalypse Dudes (easily their masterpiece before disbanding late the same year).
		It must be a wake-up call to the rest of the world and an re-introduction to the newly reformed band who blasted on to the Norwegian punk rock scene with their 1992 release, Hot Cars And Spent Contraceptives, coined terms such as "Denim Demons" and "deathpunk", and formed an army of Tubojugend fans.
		Rock DJs the world over know just what tracks from Apocalypse Dudes to throw on to really get the crowd pumped: "Get It On", "Are You Ready (For Some Darkness)", "Good Head." Please forget Andrew WK — Turbonegro rock much, much harder and their partying skills are un-matched.

		The trend started on Dudes for the cheesey intro continues with a completely naff 80's piano intro that is a perfect lead into the kickass dirty riff of Wipe Until It Bleeds.
		Although Leather can't compete with the sheer kick ass momentum of Dudes it tries its best with tracks like Drenched In Blood, with it's suprising beach boys sing-along chorus, Turbo Must Be Destroyed, which I think is some sort of mockery of the press and their image and Locked Down.
		One of their previous albums, 'Apocalypse Dudes' seemed to me to have far less well-structured songs (although die-hard fans will argue that it is a classic), with 'Get It On' perhaps being their best offering.

		They've made some of the coolest, most rocking songs of the past 10 or 15 years along with a look and attitude that will surely see them as one of the greatest underground bands ever.
		TRBNGR have pioneered a mix of rock and punk that they've referred to as 'deathpunk.' Apocalypse Dudes is hailed by many as the pinnacle of their deathpunk sound.
		Opening with "The Age of Pamparius," an ode to motherfucking pizza pie, this records separates itself from the rest with an originality and spirit that kicks you in the ass, asks if you're alright, then punches you in the face.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Turbonegro: Apocalypse Dudes
		When discussing Turbonegro, it's a tough call deciding whether Ass Cobra or Apocalypse Dudes was the band's defining moment.
		While Ass had a punishing punk sound that was more in line with the band's earlier releases, Apocalypse's one-two blow of offensive deathpunk and '70s metal riffs could be considered the turning point in the band's career.
		My only complaint about the reissue is the glaring lack of bonus tracks to satisfy the band's existing fan base.

	Daily Vault - May 6, 2003
		With the strength of their album at that time, Apocalypse Dudes (reviewed on this website on 04/04/2003), coupling with the band's mysterious disappearance, all the ingredients for an underground Turbonegro legacy were mixed over the years to make the band one of today's most intriguing underground punk acts.
		With Hank's demons apparently put to rest in the summer of 2002, the Apocalypse Dudes lineup were enticed to not only reform at three major festivals including the Bizarre (Germany) and Quart (Norway) Festivals, but to headline them.
		If Schreiner's coming-out party as being a true guitar virtuoso was defined by the legendary lead riff performed on Apocalypse Dudes' "Prince of the Rodeo," his effort here is nearly as memorable.

		Having split up in bizarre fashion not long after the milestone that was Apocalypse Dudes, the band rose victoriously with the 2002 Res-Erection Tour and found that it had gained a substantial, insanely dedicated international fan base --...
		Though not quite the epic work that Apocalypse Dudes was, Ass Cobra nonetheless paves the way harshly, with a sinister wash of cymbals and loud guitars, articulate riffs, and stellar songwriting -- think Poison Idea meets Alice Cooper.
		In the space of less than a decade, which included only one American tour and four proper studio albums, Turbonegro's contributions and accomplishments cannot be sullied by their untimely departure.
