After the release of Refused's 2015 album, Freedom, the Swedish punk band’s lead singer Dennis Lyxén returned last year with The Beautiful Stories, an LP from his side project INVSN: a post-punk/synthpop collaboration with longtime collaborator Sara Almgren. Now, INVSN follow last year's LP with an EP called Forever Rejected. The five-track collection includes four originals and a cover of one of Lana Del Rey’s not-Radiohead-sounding songs, “Love.” It’s darker, drum-driven, and as Brooklyn Vegan observes, definitely sports some Depeche Mode vibes. Stream it below ahead of its release.
Forever Rejected is out 3/16 via Dine Alone. Pre-order it here.
