Iron Maiden was defeated 8-1 in a friendly football match (that's soccer to us Yanks) against a Norwegian all-star team featuring musicians Sigurd Vongraven (Satyricon), Hank von Helvete (Turbonegro), Dan Thunderbird and HP Baarlie (Backstreet Girls) and Diesel Dahl (TNT) alongside many other real pro athletes.

Playlouder reviews the new Turbonegro: http://www.playlouder.com/review/+partyanimals/
I'd hardly call The Darkness "genius", but I totally agree that the joke has been stale for quite awhile now.

This is a bit better than "Scandinavian leather", but nowhere near as perfect as "Apocalypse dudes". There are some kick ass songs here though, like "All my friends are dead", "Blow me (Like the wind)", and "If you see Kaye (Tell her I L-O-V-E her)", and they almost make the album worth buying. There's an uncomfortable aspect of this album though, and that's how Turbonegro look as if they're about to evolve into a travesty of themselves, something that I really hope won't ever happen.
