Norway has produced a number of famous rock bands, including the pop group a-ha. Norway also has a notable progressive rock scene, which began in 1971 with the release of Junipher Greene's Friendship, which was the country's first double album. Later, more progressive bands like Folque incorporated elements of traditional Norwegian folk music in their recordings. Other bands include Ruphus and Høst. In the early 1980's came the band that should influence the whole end of the decennium, Gartnerlosjen. Mixing powerful hard rock and humour, they defined what is later known as "Kyr Klump Klatt", or "Extremely funny rock", a whole new genre played by most Norwegian bands during the 80's and 90's.
