Invasionen (S)
    Saturday February 18, 2012 1:00am - 1:30am @ John Dee (Torggata 16, 0181 Oslo, Norway)
    In the wake of the as poetical as well as political EP “Arvegods” Invasionen are back with their second album, " Saker som jag sagt till natten." The fiery sound is rooted in both krautrock and post punk. This is also the album where Dennis Lyxzén flourishes as a song writer as well as singer, even in his own language. Lyxzén hardly needs any introduction. As front man for Refused he was the passionate singer and agitator for friends outside of Umeå, and is one of the most influential songwriters and visionaries in the Swedish hardcore scene. The ban never got to be as big as they deserved to be in Sweden, but it was an international phenomenon, representing an almost life-changing inspiration for the hardcore bands, vegans and young, enthusiastic people around the world. Refused ended up on top, after the release of the groundbreaking and somewhat prophetically-titled album The Shape Of Punk To Come. This autumn Invasionen are playing live shows. The invasion begins in September, in China. Invasionen will sing in Swedish in China. Dennis acknowledges that it felt strange, until someone pointed out that the Chinese really do not understand English either! Having led two internationally successful band it would seem easy for Dennis Lyxzén to continue on the same path.
