Guide Note
The Teenagers are an electronic music group from Paris, France consisting of three friends in their mid-20s who initially started the group's MySpace page as a joke in 2005. However, the trio soon began producing music under the Teenagers name. Though they have released a number of remixes, they are better known for their original material which uses extremely explicit lyrics and titles to deal with themes of love, sex, and relationships from an adolescent point of view.
