Too Much Yang is the sixth studio album made by the Norwegian rock band BigBang. It was released in Norway, March 19, 2007, at Warner Music and Grand Sport Records.[1][2] The album was received generally well by critics in Norway, although it is not considered one of their strongest.

Title[]

The name, "Too Much Yang", comes from a Feng Shui book drummer Olaf Olsen bought in Los Angeles. Under a picture of an AmCar, the picture text stated: "an example of too much yang". Øystein Greni decided to use the phrase "Too Much Yang" for the title of the album.
