Critical reception

The Washington Post wrote that "even the Conspiracy's most energetic broadsides seem more well-meaning than incendiary." [1] CMJ New Music Report called the album "astounding," and noted the "nearly flawless thematic progression as a call-to-arms." [11] The Chicago Tribune called it "a truly volatile Molotov cocktail of '60s garage-rock and Stooges-style punk." [12]

The (International) Noise Conspiracy was a Swedish rock band formed in Sweden in the late months of 1998. The line-up consists of Dennis Lyxzén (vocals), Inge Johansson (bass), Lars Strömberg (guitar), and Ludwig Dahlberg (drums). The band is known for its punk and garage rock musical influences, and its impassioned left-wing political stance. Up until 2004, guitarist/organist/keyboardist Sara Almgren was also a member of the band. Dennis formed The (I)NC almost immediately after the breakup of his former band, Refused. The (I)nc takes pride in blending the roots of at least four other bands, including Totalt Jävla Mörker (Johansson), Separation (Strömberg), Saidiwas, and Doughnuts (Almgren). In 2007, Inge Johansson also played in the band The Most.
