The Noise Conspiracy

In 1999, the band recorded their debut album, The First Conspiracy, with G7 Welcoming Committee Records. While not a commercial success, the album gained the band recognition from the punk label Burning Heart Records, which had previously released records by some of the members' earlier bands. In 2000, they released Survival Sickness. Widely regarded as one of the finest examples of situationist-influenced punk rock, Survival Sickness showcased the band's revolutionary ideology with biting lyrics and infectious rhythms. Many of the lyrics were drawn directly from the writings of the Situationist International, particularly Raoul Vaneigem's The Revolution of Everyday Life.

By 2001, the band returned to Burning Heart's studio to record their next album, A New Morning, Changing Weather. With the addition of Almgren's organ playing, The (International) Noise Conspiracy created a sound that extended beyond the boundaries of typical punk music. Incorporating organs, horns, and keys, the band began to develop a reputation for eclectic instrumentation, a characteristic they would continue to refine.

The band's first tour outside their homeland of Sweden took them to China, where they performed in illegal and hidden rock clubs while Chinese police reportedly waited outside armed with guns and nightsticks. They also toured the United States with My Chemical Romance. The band's lead singer described their music as similar to The Hives but with a political edge, as The (International) Noise Conspiracy incorporates a strong Situationist agenda into some of their work, exemplified by songs like "Capitalism Stole My Virginity."

Between 2002 and 2003, the Up for Sale EP (Sympathy for the Record Industry) and Bigger Cages, Longer Chains EP (2003, Burning Heart/Epitaph Records) were recorded. The band's 16 March 2002 performance in Bremen, Germany was recorded and released by Tobby Holzinger (Your Choice Records) as Your Choice Live Series Vol. 25.

In 2004, The (International) Noise Conspiracy collaborated with renowned producer Rick Rubin for their next album. Swedish jazz saxophonist Jonas Kullhammar temporarily joined the band on saxophone and keyboards, co-writing some of the songs. Organists Billy Preston and Benmont Tench also joined the lineup temporarily, as Sara Almgren left to join the Swedish punk band The Vicious (later Masshysteri). Rick Rubin signed the band to his label, American Recordings. The result was the release of Armed Love in 2004. The album's inlay paid tribute to the slogan "¡O Bailan todos, o no baila nadie!" written by the Tupamaros, which translates to "Either Everyone Dances, or No One Dances!" According to the band, this phrase reflects their philosophy and music.

In 2006, The (International) Noise Conspiracy contributed a cover of "Shut Up" to The Monks tribute album Silver Monk Time: A Tribute to The Monks, which was released in October.

By 2007, the band had completed recording a new album. In an interview for Rockstar.tv on 28 August, they announced plans to name the album The Cross of My Calling, stating it would feature "mystical" lyrics and a more soulful sound. The album was released on 17 November 2008 in Europe and 25 November in America. The fourteen-track album was produced by Rick Rubin and released through Burning Heart, American, and Vagrant Records.
