Senser - SONIC DISSIDENCE (2025)
SONIC DISSIDENCE arrives as a ferocious and timely return for Senser, capturing both the raw energy of their early ’90s rap-rock fusion and a matured perspective on social and political unrest. From the explosive opener “Ryot Pump” the record makes its intent clear—rage, resistance and reflection delivered through heavy riffs, hip-hop cadence, and electronics. Tracks like “Old World” and “Bleak Division” showcase the band’s dual-vocal dynamic (Heitham Al-Sayed & Kerstin Haigh), balancing anger with melody and making the critique land as much emotionally as intellectually. While some moments lean heavily into the sonic bombast the band is known for, the album also offers quieter, more introspective passages—“Black Wings” and “Air Loom” stand out for giving space to breathe amid the chaos. Ultimately, SONIC DISSIDENCE proves Senser still have both bite and relevance—this isn’t a nostalgia trip, but a statement for now.
