Originally operating under the moniker the Lost Patrol, INVSN is the solo project of Swedish post-punk heavyweight Dennis Lyxzén of Refused and (International) Noise Conspiracy fame. His 1999 debut, Songs in the Key of Resistance, was very much influenced by the political folk of artists like Billy Bragg. Released in 2003, Songs About Running Away was much poppier than the debut, as was 2005's more rock-oriented Lost Patrol Band. In 2010 Lyxzén and company adopted the name Invasionen and released Hela Världen Brinner. Saker Som Jag Sagt Till Natten dropped the following year, and in 2013 they officially changed their name to INVSN and released an eponymous LP. In 2017 they issued their sophomore outing as INVSN, The Beautiful Stories. ~ Tim Sendra
