2) Asfalt was a rock band from Stavanger started in 1980 by keyboardist and songwriter Tor Salomonsen. With lyrics in dialect, the band was together with, among others Stavanger ensemble and Mods part of Stavangerbølgen wave of Norwegian rock in the early 80s.

The band released two albums on the label in May before the record company went bankrupt in 1983. At the same time joined vocalist Magne Høyland and was replaced by Mia Gundersen. With new singer the band recorded a new self-financed album, but was dissolved before it came out in 1984. Among the band's best known songs are "Thank ska Need" from the debut album, which Salomonsen wrote as a tribute to the then recently deceased John Lennon, and "Onna a larger wings" with Mia Gundersen on vocals.
