Turbonegro, the Scandinavian double-edge sword who contribute to both culture and the downfall (or enlightenment!) of man, have returned with their seventh album, Rock n’ Roll Machine<\/i><\/em>. Even in this new era of deathpunk, they remain predictably unpredictable with this album’s 13 tracks blending a wall of guitar riffs with synth-laden arena rock and other aspects of Roth-era Van Halen. There’s a feeling in Rock n’ Roll Machine<\/i><\/em> that parallels the Party Animals<\/i><\/em> era with the production value and songwriting elements it holds. It’s definitely a separation from the straight-up punk rock fury featured on their last LP, Sexual Harassment, <\/i><\/em>so you’re either going to love this record or not, but these guys still write catchy music and combine it with cleverly written dark humor.<\/p>\n

As the re-resurrection perseveres, there is a new face in the lineup to plaster with eyeliner and kutte up. Rock n’ Roll Machine<\/i><\/em> introduces new keys man, Crown Prince Haakon Marius, filling the long-vacated spot where pizza maven\/onstage manimal, Pal Pot Pamparius, left a void since his departure in 2010. While unlikely to blast audiences faces off by alternating between keys and a Gibson Explorer, he does play a mean synth and you’ll hear it on this album.<\/p>\n
