New Trolls is an Italian progressive rock band that started in the 60s and has existed off and on since then. The story began in Genova, circa 1966, when former members of The Trolls decided to form a new band. Their first album, Senza orario senza bandiera (1968), combines 60s psychedlia with some Classical tendencies, and yielded several singles for the band. Their second album, New Trolls (1970), was actually a compilation of numerous singles. After that, the band's personnel changes began. In 1971, the band collaborated with composer Luis Enriquez Bacalov for Concerto grosso per i New Trolls, which...

Their infamous skit, "Welcome to the Internet Helpdesk" has gained more press than any of their other sketches. Other popular songs include The Toronto Song and The White House Burned (The War of 1812), which are frequently...

In October of 2007, Frode Anderssen ( King of Trolls ) had written some new songs for his new CD about Alvin and the Troll. One of the songs was a majestic, rock and roll melody heavily influenced by Norwegian folklore describing the land in which the “King of Trolls” reigned. It was decided that the song, called "Far away", should be entered into a national song contest arranged by the Norwegian Broadcasting Network (NRK), where the winner of the competition would be Norway’s contribution to the Eurovision Song Contest 2008. Without much thought of even being noticed amongst the...
