Alpha Motherfuckers – A Tribute to Turbonegro is a tribute album by various artists, originally released on 9 June 2001 (18 June 2001 in the US).[1] It is compiled of covers of the Norwegian band Turbonegro.
The artists on this record range from major bands Queens of the Stone Age, HIM from Finland, and Therapy? from the UK, to US punk and hardcore bands such as The Dwarves and The Supersuckers, to lesser known Scandinavian artists. Modern Fix described it as "one of the strangest bands of the last ten years"[2]
Multiple versions of this album exist, including the German version that included a bonus disc of left-over covers in the early first limited pressings; there is also a US version that includes one bonus track from the limited bonus disc that came with the first limited German pressings; and an Australian version that had a similar track listing to the later German pressings.
