Wallpaper Silhouettes is a rock/pop/new wave band based in Trondheim, Norway. Its members are songwriter, singer and lead guitarist Mats Davidsen, bassist Tony Jacobsen, and drummer Jo Henning Dahlø.

Davidsen and Jacobsen formed the group, then called New Horizon, in late 1999. Its name changed to The Bench in 2000, then to Wallpaper Silhouettes in 2002, when Dahlø joined. The band's influences include Talking Heads, The Cure, Steely Dan, Joy Division, China Crisis, and The Associates.

Wallpaper Silhouettes has released two self-financed records (see the discography) on its own label, Record Surgery Products, and had a third album tentatively scheduled for release in mid-2006 before a sudden split. Mats Davidsen's current project is called Painted Romans and Tony Jacobsen's project is called The Hauf Jacket.
