OVERVIEW: The Norwegian sextet Kaizers Orchestra build cathartic rock songs that borrow heavily from the tunes of Tin Pan Alley and Eastern European folk music. Since their first album in 2001, they shook the Norwegian music scene, won 3 prizes for the release, including a NOR Grammy, critical acclaim from nationwide press and went on to become the highest-selling rock debut ever issued in the Norwegian language. Since then, they have been #1 on the NOR album charts with each studio album, sold out shows on most of their tours, won 3 additional Norwegian Grammys (for music videos, rock, artist of the year), as well as commercial success in Europe with many tours and festival appearance, like playing the mainstage at Roskilde three times. MORE INFO: The band is experiencing a new unexpected rise on the charts in Norway after a new generation of fans have posted about their 2010 single šHjerteknuser› (track 4 on this compilation) on TikTok. This has led to more streams and media mentions, in perfect timing before the šGreatest Hits› release. These 21 tracks have been picked by the band to represent the very essence of Kaizers Orchestra. The compilation is a compressed, but still broad collection of Kaizers™ multifaceted yet charismatic musical universe. The best of 11 years with šOmpa-Rock›, and an official šGreatest Hits› compilation for old fans to enjoy and new fans to explore.
