The Teenagers were a French synth-pop musical trio formed in late 2005, originally as a joke.[3] They achieved some degree of notoriety with the song "Homecoming", both for its catchy sound and for its explicit content.[4][5] Their debut album Reality Check was released in the UK on 17 March 2008[6] and 18 March 2008 in the rest of Europe and the United States. On October 12 2020, the band announced[7] that they were no longer active and had not been for some time, and posted a link to a farewell song titled "Do You Remember".[8]
