The desire to unleash one's unencumbered ingenuity and unique vision into the world is an attitude embracedvby those often celebrated for pushing boundaries, and it's under this same premise that German newcomers SENNA were formed. Drawing their name from the Arabic word for brightness, shine, or glow, bandmates Simon Masdjedi (vocals), Tobias Stulz (guitar/vocals), Marcel Durr (guitar), Fabian Cattarius (bass), and LeonDorn(drums), never intended for SENNA -a musical outlet originally established as a studio side project-to come into its own as a fully-fledged unit. Yet, tackling a luminous blend of playful but technical instrumentation and edgy hard rock meets progressive post-hardcore styling, it's only fitting that both the innovative outfit and their introductory work have entered the limelight for all to enjoy. "It was really liberating," guitarist Marcel Durr recalls the group's mindset leading up to their SharpTone debut. "Because we weren't pursuing SENNA as a proper band at first, we had a lot of time to experiment with our sound. Our goal was to simply write the music that we enjoyed, without being boxed into any one genre.
