What influences do you have as a band?
Olle - It is very spread what everyone likes music so everyone contributes their own touch on it. For me, it may be another music or everyday events that help all affect whether consciously or not.
Johan - I think in some way that anyone can get into their vision of the music and then we discuss very often. When we talk about the different parts of the band.
Erik - I think it's important that everyone should have the room to do his own thing in the music so you can not tell someone how to play.
Olle - It's what makes us sound like we do too, all the control band.
Are you yourselves or are you customizing the music to reach out to a larger audience?
No, we do not adapt the music to reach out to a larger audience.
Olle - For my part, it is about getting the word out and disconnect the outside world. The idea of making music to a larger audience is not, it is mainly for themselves this is done. Often lost the charm of the music when you start to adapt to others instead of himself.
Max - The vision of what Seedna are developed and refined continuously by us as individuals and bands. Consciously or unconsciously. Never in order to be in any way commercial.
Are you earning money on your music.
No we do not. For short.
Max - The minus account is reduced as much as possible, hehe. Money is not the important thing.
Olle - The first goal is to reach break-even, the rest is a bonus.
Who are you?
We are looking to create an atmospheric light in the form of music. Then it's up to the listeners to decide what genre we belong.
Johan - What we do is not as structured as other songs, it's more like a soundscape can almost say. We are experimenting a lot with effects. and every time we play a song will be the trust differently. There is much room for improvisation.
Daniel - Nice to still have an atmosphere where it is permitted, it is otherwise quite strict, and especially if you are sitting in a tray or a genre, then there will be maybe locked.
Olle - Yes, and why we do not say that we belong to a particular genre, then we will be locked and we do not want.
It says on your website that you consists of 5 dark souls who plays atmospheric, dark and boundless music, what does it mean?
Yes, the sentence has been well evolved perhaps because we can not define ourselves with a genre and also a feeling that arises when we play our music.
Is it important for you not to be placed in one compartment?
We ourselves puts us never in a trade just because we do not think we fit into a single genre. People are very quick to want to give a membership of a particular genre, we've been told we sound like post metal / rock, doom metal, atmospheric black metal, sludge, shoegaze and so on. and also recalls the psychedelic free 70-century music. So it is different from the listener to listener, which is interesting.
How did Seedna happend?
Erik - Seedna was when the middle and Gabriel's former band broke up, and I and my brother, Emil, did not want to stop playing music. We did not so much in the beginning but then I came running and started making songs with just guitar and drums. Then we said that we would record it and continue until someone else wanted to hang on, and it went quite quickly.
How long have you as a band kept on?
Since 2012, some time there began Seedna emerge. In late 2013 we were five members and from 2014 we have been very active live.
Where are you from?
Eric, Gabriel and Olle is from Manhattan. Max and Johan comes from Skövde.
How often do you practice?
Twice a week, we try to keep the pace. Sometimes it will be more if we go out and play.
