L'Invasione degli Omini Verdi, often abbreviated as I.O.V., is a punk rock band hailing from Campobasso, Italy, renowned for their dynamic sound and vibrant live performances. The group burst onto the Italian punk scene in the late 1990s and steadily garnered attention for their catchy, energetic tracks infused with a blend of satire and social commentary. They are known for their distinctively potent melodies and rousing choruses that often carry an underlying message concerning the trials and tribulations of youth, society, and politics.

Over the years, L'Invasione degli Omini Verdi has established a solid discography that showcases their evolution as a band, while retaining their core punk ethos. Their recent albums, including "8 Bit," with its chiptune influences, "Arcade Boyz," which presents a nod to the retro arcade culture, and "16 anni dopo," a reflective piece marking their journey in the music industry, demonstrate their ability to adapt and explore new sounds while staying true to their roots. "Il banco piange (Deluxe Version)" presents an expanded collection of their work, offering fans an immersive experience into their world. With "Nel nome di chi?" and "Mondo a parte," they continue to challenge societal norms and ask pressing questions through their lyrics, while "Contro" delivers anthemic tracks resisting the status quo. Their album "Veniamo in pace" aptly encapsulates their message of speaking truth through music while affirming their peaceful yet provocative approach to making their mark in the music world.
