Notable guests include Fredrik Ness Sevendal (who is an almost-official fourth member), Tore H. Bøe, Petter Flaten Eilertsen, Audun Eriksen, Campbell Kneale (Birchville Cat Motel), Kai Mikalsen, Antony Milton (A.M.), John Birger Wormdahl and Mr. Cosmonaut (Cosmonauts Hail Satan).

The band releases most of its recordings on labels run by the band members or their friends. Most of the artwork is done by Lasse. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
