DumDum Boys is a Norwegian rock band from Trondheim, considered one of the most important Norwegian rock bands of all time. They started up in the late 1970s as a punk band under the name "Wannskrækk", and released a few singles under that name before they reinvented themselves with a new name and a somewhat new sound in 1985. This shift invoked the beginning of one of the greatest success stories in Norwegian rock ever. The new name, "DumDum Boys", was taken from a song on the album "The Idiot" by Iggy Pop. Their debut album, Blodig Alvor (na na na na na) is still regarded as one of the classic albums in Norwegian rock. The same is true for their 1989 album, Splitter Pine. Their song and album "Splitter pine" (1989) was their big breakthrough in Norway. Also go under the name Racer BK when releasing songs that are "not so serious", f.ex. "Bønda i fra Nord" Current line-up
