I buy a lot of music, but this stands out as one of the best albums I've come across in the last few years. Noisy yet melodic, chaotic yet controlled, this album is a blissful sonic universe. I absolutely love it. It's almost like a reincarnation of My Bloody Valentine, if Kevin Shields had more budget and more technology. Just awesome.

This review is from: Serena-Maneesh (Audio CD)

Serena Maneesh plays a kind of noisy experimental indie-rock that is a natural continuation of early Sonic Youth, but simply much better recorded. The songs are usually slow and long with prolonged outdrawn introductions. It also reminds of Loveless-era My Bloody Valentine because of the stoned female vocals. The songs also have an ethereal quality to them that is quite unique. It is extremely derivative so anybody liking the previously cited groups will really enjoy this. It does however lack that little something that made these bands produce great stuff. There are also a few songs that are not that great. While I would not be as negative as the other reviewer I must agreee that it lacks greatness. Sorry, guys, I really wanted to like this. Actually Giant drag who are also very derivative along the same lines have managed to pull off something better even if they have opted for a more melodic approach than this Norwegian group has and people would be better advised to buy their CD.

I love this music because of it's richness, guitar noises, interesting textures and structures, great melodies and because it rocks. Diverse, yet a unique fingerprint.
