Sencelled is a Swedish four-piece rock band from a suburb just north of Stockholm. Their music is essentially melody-driven rock (not that far from AOR) with a twist of the power pop of say, Rick Springfield - mixed with a small part of the Green Day of the 90's. It's music from the heart, about love, suburbian life and the urge to get out of your shell and make something great of yourself. Emotionally, powerfully sung by Erik Holmberg, flavoured brilliantly by Fredrik Askenstrom's guitar playing and powered up by the energy-packed duo of Christoffer Ahl on drums and Mattias Ohlsén on bass - this is a band to seriously look out for.

The debut album, which has already been hailed as one of 2011's most important in the rock community of Sweden, is produced by the great Ricky B Delin (who last year won acclaim for Houston - 2010's best AOR album in Classic

Sencelled, an unordinary name but musically friendly to the ears. Another Swedish band to pack the melodic rock scene, but this time they chose a more modern direction, and implemented a simple song structure which somehow reminds me of many American young pop/punk bands, but very addictive and they enhanced it with subtle vocal harmonies and decent guitar solos.

The intention of this album is obviously to have some fun and that's depicted clearly in extremely catchy and sing-along choruses. From the opening tune, 'Breathe Out', right to the next two tracks, 'I Love The Way You Are' and 'Wild One', Sencelled drops a quick reminder to the listeners that they didn't want any complexity in their songs but what's important is that they want to unleash the crazy euphoric mood out of ourselves.

Check out songs like 'One Night Stand' or 'I Wanted You' and I can tell that their mission is a success. 'Tommy & Gina' borrowed the characters from Desmond Child's penned track on Bon Jovi's third album and also another great track here, I love it. 'Miracle' and 'Carry On' are also very listenable and perhaps only 'Oh Sarah' and 'Things I Feel' which I think are a bit let down, even though they're still pretty okay too.

Not a ground-breaking earth-shattering type of album, but I do enjoy this album. For fans of easy-listening car-driving companion kind of music, Sencelled is a must try, but heavy metal fans might feel this one can be too poppy for their taste. Think of band like 7th Heaven and that could be the closest comparison. Songs like these probably has been done zillion times, but being predictable isn't a sin, and at the end of the days, great songs eventually win.
