Per Natrud Bergersen (1960-1990) was a musician from Røros, Norway. He was killed by a friend in 1990, 29 years old, with a shotgun. According to newsreports this happened at Bergersen's request, as he wanted help committing suicide. After his death, the LP PB was released by Røros fritidsklubb, it was released in 1000 copies, which was quickly sold out. This LP has gained cult status in various milieux, and is sold used for up to $100. PB is mainly based on Redrum Psychosis, a demo from 1985, and live recordings from Thomasgaarden, Røros, in 1990. The lyrics of his song Kyssing was used as the theme song of the Norwegian movie, Store gutter gråter ikke, the song there had the title Skyter meg på julaften.
Per has a grandson, Jørgen Amadeus Bergersen, that also is a musician. He plays bass in Lemonstone Circus, a skedsmokorset-local-band.
