Testeagles, sometimes referred to as "TEs" or ''Testes'', are a three-piece rock band which formed in Adelaide, South Australia in 1994. The group is made up of brothers Matthew "Matty" Matt (lead guitar and lead vocals) and Adrian "Ady" Matt (drums), alongside Dave "D" Paisawa (bass guitar and vocals). D joined the lineup in 1999, replacing their original bass guitarist, Dean.

The group have a handful of official releases to their name, the first being the Chum EP released in 1995, which was followed by the B-Sting and Friends EPs in 1998, their first tracks to secure them Triple J airplay. In 1999, the group released singles "Turn That Shit Up" and "Underdog" from their debut album, Non Comprehendus.

Non Comprehendus was released in February 2000 and peaked at No. 8 on the ARIA Albums Chart. This album, along with its singles, were also played on Triple J and gained them a much larger national following. A third single from the album, "Like No Other", was released in 2000.
