The Retardos play a fine mix of all that is great about rock’n’roll. Growing up with the classics like Kiss, The Ramones and The Stooges, the prospect of bein’ lawyers was never really there. Spiced with the magic touch of Andy Apeman, The Retardos are leading the masses into the new millenium with hardrockin’ beats and bulldozer guitars ! March 2000, The Retardos finished a three week US tour with swedish labelmates Backyard Babies and The Yo Yo’s (UK). Hittin’ almost every major city in land of the free, the americans got an overdose of rock’ n’roll they won’t forget. The Retardos also blew the roof of the Red Eyed Fly at the SXSW in Austin, Texas this year. The album is hittin' the shores of Europe these days, so if yer down with loud and powerfull rock’n’roll, you are well advised to check it out. While Scooch Pooch handle the CD format worldwide, a 10 inch vinyl release of the album is released through spanish Safety Pin Records.

"Fuck Yeah! The Retardos from Norway play loud, fast rock'n'roll with lots of BALLS and I fuckin' love it!" EG, Deadbeat Magazine

"The night may be cold and wet, but The Retardos, Norway's Vikings Of Rock, are smoking from their first song. With a sort of Judas-Priest-meets-stoner-rock vibe, they show great promise..." 8 out of 10 at SXSW, Austin, Texas Gail Worley, Metal Hammer (UK)

"Their debut shows them to have all the right moves: guitar licks that burn and a penchant for dumb lyrics about alcohol......" Mörat, Kerrang
