"Rock Around the Bunker" was a 1975 album by French singer andsongwriter Serge Gainsbourg, containing songs which combined pseudo-1950smusical arrangements in the manner of "Grease" or "The Rocky Horror Show" with lyrics relating to Nazi Germany and World War II complete with Gainsbourg's usual sex and scatology.

Considering that Gainsbourg as a young Jewish teenager in occupied France had had to hide from the Nazis and Vichy authorities, it was all the more controversial in a country that has had a long period of coming to grips with its role in World War II. Songs like "Nazi rock", "Tata teutonne" and "SS in Uruguay" further established Gainsbourg's role as France's resident pop provocateur, and was contemporarywith David Bowie's similar Nazi obsession.
