Insolence is a nu metal band which was formed in San Jose, California in 1995. In addition to nu metal they also blend rap, reggae, and hardcore in their music.

In 2007, the band hosted a weekly radio show named "Audio War Radio" on Tokyo's largest FM station, InterFM, which at them time reached 37 million people. The band played music from and interviewed many American rock and metal bands including 311, Pepper, Papa Roach, Slightly Stoopid, Hed PE, Skindred and others.

All of the proceeds from the sales of their 2008 release "Beats, Not Bombs" were donated to the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum and the Nagasaki City Peace Promotion Office.

The band has released two major label records, Revolution on Maverick Records and Stand Strong on Warner Bros. Records. The band's latest studio albums Audio War and Project Konflict were released by Powerslave Records.
