After releasing several demos in 2001 and 2002, they recorded a split-EP with local Swedish band Firestone in 2003. 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 latest album, V, was released on September 30, 2016.
Their sound has been described as classic desert rock, similar to bands like Dozer, Fu Manchu (with whom they have toured), and Kyuss. They have been featured on the MTV Sweden show "Fuzz"
The film Truckfighters by Joerg Steineck and Christian Maciejewski portrays the band's life. It was released in December 2011 and features interviews with Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age. The film provides an ironic, entertaining view of the three "ordinary" guys who transform into Fuzz Monsters onstage.

The New High
Truckfighters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It is the highest of the rates, of mistakes.
That's kind of strange all the people are lame
I didn't know that the truth is so blind
That day they changed their opinion of mind
One day to another no longer godsend
Now they standing on the barricades who will they find
All the who lost their lives for nothing
All the hands of the families they are reaching
Far from them all they cannot win
There's no one left to stop you from preachin'
That day they changed their opinion of mind
One day to another no longer godsend
Now they standing on the barricades who will they find
The Truckfighters' song The New High talks about the concept of change and how people's opinions can be influenced or altered in a short amount of time, making them question everything they believed to be true. The lyrics suggest that opposition forces will criticize and claim that any change made is a mistake. However, in reality, it is strange and blinds people from the truth. The song suggests that the truth is often hidden and can be hard to find, but once you do, it can give you a new perspective on life.
The lyrics also talk about the consequences of change, particularly how people may end up losing their lives or be forced to sacrifice their families in pursuit of something new. The lines "All the hands of the families they are reaching/ Far from them all, they cannot win/ There's no one left to stop you from preachin'," suggest that people may become so invested in their cause that they become estranged from their loved ones. The song acknowledges the risks of standing up and making a change but also the importance of doing so.
Overall, The New High is a cautionary song that suggests that change isn't always easy, and it comes with risks. Still, it's something that needs to happen for people to see the truth and make a difference.
