TWRP (pronounced twerp), formerly known as Tupper Ware Remix Party, is a Canadian rock band originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Initially founded in 2007,[1] the band moved to Toronto in 2011 with a change in members and musical direction. Their lineup consists of keyboardist and vocalist Doctor Sung, guitarist Lord Phobos, bassist Commander Meouch, and drummer Havve Hogan.

The band always performs in full costume, with their faces and real names unknown; they also have a fictional band history, involving Doctor Sung finding his bandmates through space and time.[1][2] TWRP released their first album, Poised to Dominate, in 2010. It was followed by Together Through Time (2018), Return to Wherever (2019), and Over the Top (2020).[3] They have also released six EPs.

They are also known for their collaborations with Ninja Sex Party, having become their opening act and backing band in 2015 on both live performances and studio releases, starting with the album Under the Covers.[4] They are also the backing band on The TryForce, the third album of Starbomb, another band featuring the members of Ninja Sex Party.[5]

On September 17, 2018, TWRP appeared on Conan as the backing band for Ninja Sex Party, in a clean version of "Danny Don't You Know".[6]
