Panzerpappa is a contemporary Norwegian progressive rock band based in Oslo.

Biography

The band plays instrumental RIO or progressive rock with a humoristic twist ("Progressive Rock with a friendly face", in their own words), which is often reminiscent of inspirational precursors such as Samla Mammas Manna, King Crimson, Henry Cow, Univers Zero, Happy The Man and Frank Zappa.{{cite web |url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/panzerpappa-mn0002134892/biography |title=Panzerpappa Biography |first=Dave |last=Lynch |publisher=Allmusic |access-date=2013-11-17}}{{cite news |first=Svein Magnus |last=Furu |author-link=Svein Magnus Furu |title=Gull av gråstein |language=no |url=http://morgenbladet.no/kultur/2012/gull_av_grastein#.UojD7HBWym4 |agency=Morgenbladet |work=Music Reviews |date=2012-11-01 |access-date=2013-11-17}}
