INVSN        

Music Project of Swedish Punk Rock Musician Dennis Lyxzén

INVSN is the music project of Swedish Punk rock musician Dennis Lyxzén. In contrast to his other projects, Refused and The (International) Noise Conspiracy, this started out as a solo career and much more folkish and softer than his prior music endeavors.

The band was previously called the Lost Patrol Band; however, the name was changed to Invasionen because the American group, The Lost Patrol holds the North American trademark on the name. As the name changed, so did the music, and the band started to write in Swedish. In 1999, Lyxzén put together a release titled "Songs in the Key of Resistance," which was written in the political vein that Lyxzén's fans best know him for. The band returned in 2003 with "Songs about Running Away."

In 2010, the release of "Hela Världen Brinner" marked their first release under the name Invasionen. "Hela Världen Brinner" was released under Dennis's own label, Ny Våg.

When the band decided that they were ready to become a global act, they decided that "a change in language and a new name would be in place." In 2013 the group signed to Razor & Tie and changed their name to INVSN (Pronounced "Invasion").

INVSN released their self-titled debut album with Razor & Tie in September 2013. The first single from the album was "Down In The Shadows."
