5) Invasion Mixing NY punk sneer with classic soul warmth, Swedish rockers Invasion were for sure one of the most self-willed and unique bands on the contemporary Swedish indie scene during the first few years of the 2000's.

The band's germination dates back to the late 90's, when singer/songwriter/guitarist Gustaf Jonsson and bassist/singer Johan Hölbling were in a noise rock constellation called Metal Machine Music (after an infamous Lou Reed album). When the group broke up, the pair continued playing. Meanwhile, Gustaf and class mate Clara Flygare, playing the drums, formed a band together with guitarist Martin Ståhl of semi-famous indie sensation Looking for Nancy.

Eventually, the quartet decided to play together and in late 2003 they were known as Invasion. Some months later they released their first EP, blending Bacharach pop, mod, Stax soul, country and r 'n' b.

In 2005 they released their full-length debut album, Invasion For Lovers, and the acclaim for the album and the unique peculiarity in the band's sound raised Invasion's profile considerably. Hailing from Borlänge, a city famous for raising Sugarplum Fairy and Mando Diao, Invasion soon were called the next pop sensation from the harsh industrial community.

Early in 2006 the band released their second album, called Crazy Dance. Here the band proved to have a even wider spectrum of influences and combined vintage county with the rhythms of David Bowie's slick kraut disco. The band even recorded a cover of the Chuck Jackson classic Tell Him I'm Not Hom.

Some months later, in the autumn of 2006, Invasion dissolved. Difficulties to find time for and organise proper rehearsals was officially stated as the reason for the decision.

But at the turn of the year Jonsson, Flygare and Hölbling started to play together again and reformed as Love Attack. They are recording some of their first songs at this present.
