The Nude Pube Banglers are a Norwegian rock band, combining such punk rock influences as the Poison Idea and the Dead Boys, with hardcore, blues and rockabilly. Originally formed in the year 2000 in the provincial town of Steinkjer, the band is now operating out of Oslo, frequently touring Norway as well as Scandinavia.

The group started out as a six piece outfit playing gothic folk rock, Vamp style, but soon took on a harder beat as their fan base expanded from rural Steinkjer and into urban areas such as Trondheim and Oslo. By early 2001 the band's violin player had left, making the metamorphosis into a punk rock band complete.
Their first recorded material reveals a heavy punk rock influence (Highway EP), but during the past two years, the band has exploried other genres; notably east coast hardcore mixed with blues. The resulting sound, trademarked as "Banglerism", has moved the band away from so-called Scandi-rock and into the less dogmatic realm of hard rock.
Over the years, there have been frequent changes of the line-up for various reasons. Recently, El Hijo left the group, being replaced by Trynet on the bass.
