The Trousers are a Hungarian indie-garage rock band based in Budapest, Hungary. Their second LP Soul Machine was nominated as "The best hard rock/HM album of the year" in Hungary. They are most noted internationally for their songs used in Hawaii Five-O in the United States.
The band were formed by Zoltán Kőváry, who previously gained popularity as the guitarist of the Hungarian indie band Amber Smith, in Budapest, Hungary. The Trousers were influenced by the 60s and 70s garage rock, hard rock, soul bands such as The Hellacopters or BRMC. Their first EP entitled Dive Insane was released in 2007 and the single Blood For You topped Hungarian Radio for three weeks. The album was released in the United States and France later. In 2008 their first LP was released entitled Planetary Process which helped the band to play at international festivals such as Melt! Festival in Germany, Botanique Club - Boutique Rock in Belgium, and Gutter City Garage Rock Festival in Denmark.
In 2011 Soul Machine was released by EMI Records. The band invited two session musicians from the Hungarian band, Neo, namely Péter Kőváry and Enikő Hodosi, to contribute to their record. Péter Kőváry is the elder brother of the The Trousers frontman.
