Sara Almgren hails from Masshysteri, Christina Karlsson from Tiger Forest Cat, Anders Stenberg alongside playing with Lykke Li is also a member of Deportees, Andr\u00e9 Sandstr\u00f6m was in DS-13 and Dennis Lyzx\u00e9n started out in the seminal punk outfit Refused before playing in The (International) Noise Conspiracy with longtime collaborator Almgren.<\/p>\n<p>INVSN has always had a political message, but few other songwriters have the ability to add additional dimensions of existential struggle and soul-searching like Dennis Lyxz\u00e9n. In our time, when many moral and deeply humanistic values are being challenged by right-wing movements all over the world, INVSN is a necessary outcry from a counter-culture that has far from given up. Their music might be rich in anger, but the belief that a change could be carried out is never far away. Recorded by Adam &#8220;Atom&#8221; Greenspan (Nick Cave, The Veils) at Svenska Grammofonstudion in Gothenburg, the album, which buzzes with eclecticism, wherein catchy indie rock with pop sensibilities exists alongside industrial electronics. This is post-punk underpinned by repressed anger and frustration serving as a punch in the face of a mendacious society.<\/p>\n<p>Their forthcoming LP, &#8216;The Beautiful Stories&#8217;\u00a0(out via Dine Alone Records, 6\/9), encases all these diverse and dynamic sounds in one appealing album.<\/p>\n<h5>&#8216;The Beautiful Stories&#8217;\u00a0track listing<\/h5>\n<div>1.
