Truckfighters is a stoner rock band from Sweden. After releasing several demos in 2002, they recorded a split-EP with local Swedish band Firestone in 2003.[1] In 2005 they released their debut album Gravity X on both MeteorCity Records and Fuzzorama Records. Their follow-up album, Phi, was released in 2007 by Poison Tree Records in the U.S. and on the Fuzzorama label elsewhere. Their sound has been described as classic desert rock, similar to bands like Dozer, Fu Manchu (with whom they have toured), and Kyuss.[2][3] They have been featured on the MTV Sweden show "Fuzz".[4]
