Invaderband is a music project known for their distinctive approach to post-punk and art rock, hailing from Derry, Northern Ireland, and led by the artist and frontman Adam Leonard. Founded in the mid-2010s, Invaderband is a vehicle for Leonard's angular, often satirical songwriting which nods to the quirky narratives of indie rock and the sharp edges of post-punk traditions. Their sound is characterized by a blend of raw guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and Leonard's sardonic vocal delivery that often dives into absurdist and dystopian themes.
With releases like "The Implausible Man" and "Not Alan Rickman," Invaderband crafts a unique space in the modern rock scene, balancing between observational humor and thought-provoking criticism of the contemporary social landscape. Tracks such as "Handcuffed Man Shoots Himself" and "Attack of the Pod People" reflect the band's knack for catchy hooks wrapped in arch social commentary, while songs like "Cheese Slices" and "People Who Are Happy Are Ill" showcase their ability to address the mundane and the surreal with equal deftness. Despite keeping a relatively low profile, Invaderband has cultivated a dedicated following, intrigued by their off-kilter storytelling and the sharp edges of their sonic identity.
