The International Noise Conspiracy is a major label rock band from Sweden embarking on a musical insurrection to change the world. On May 20 they began their very first headlining tour across Canada and their first Canadian stop was in Vancouver at the Plaza Club. They formed in 1998 and their music has been described as "punk rock played like 70's hard rock or the other way around, with lyrics straight from the heart and straight to the point." The VanParecon Collective caught up with singer Dennis Lyxzen during the bands sound check to discuss the bands inception, rock & roll, punk rock, politics, art, the affect of capitalism on music and challenges faced in advancing social change. The interview will be broadcast this Saturday June 3 at 11:40am (PST) on the the radio program Redeye, heard on Vancouver Cooperative Radio, CFRO 102.7FM, or listen on-line at: http://www.coopradio.org/listen Also, later this month, The VanParecon Collective is proud to announce "War, Peace & Parecon", a presentation by Robin Hahnel at the Vancouver World Peace Forum.
