Olle Hillborg is the original frontman for Glorious Bankrobbers, a Swedish band he formed in 1983, which is often described as glam metal or sleaze rock. After Olle stepped away from the band in the early 90’s for more than a decade, the band reunited in 2006 to record their Glorious Sound Of Rock N’ Roll album, and now the band is about to release their third album in less than three years. The latest album is called Intruder, and it gets released on February 27, 2026 on Wild Kingdom Records.
In this interview, Olle gives us the details about the songs on the new album, Intruder. He also talks about the convenience and other benefits of recording in your own studio, the band’s plans to release new videos, and the desire to come to America.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
