Senser make a powerful return with ‘Ryot Pump’, their first new single in over a decade—released via Imprint Music. This is Senser at their rawest and most direct: no middlemen, no compromise—just 100% unfiltered Senser.
The in your face ‘Ryot Pump’ is the first taste of the band’s forthcoming studio album, ‘Sonic Dissidence’ released on 17th October—a project that’s self-funded, self-produced, and fiercely uncompromised.
“Ryot pump is the most direct and unambiguous call to action we’ve ever written. It’s an extremely lean song with the kinetic bounce of a pump action being loaded. It starts from the point of view of riot police, excited and amped up. Often bussed in from provinces and ready use state sponsored violence to protect corporate interests. It shifts perspective denounces fascism in all its current insidious forms. It finally breaks the fourth wall demanding the listener’s response.” – Senser
To celebrate the release of ‘Ryot Pump’ and their upcoming album, Senser will hit the road this autumn, kicking off with a show at The Exchange, Bristol on September 12th and wrapping up at The Garage, London on October 25th.
“Senser has been in a period of intense focus creating the new album and the energy of the band is at full pressure. The gigs will be an explosion, delivering anthems like ‘Eject ‘and ‘Age of Panic’ alongside a whole new wave of songs that hit hard—challenging fear-based control systems, illuminating the dissonance of modern life – delivered with a seismic intensity that shakes you to your core.”
Senser emerged from the UK’s underground scene with an explosion that still echoes to this day. Fusing hip-hop, metal, electronica, and sharp-edged protest, the band quickly gained notoriety for their high-voltage shows and a sound that refused to be contained. Their 1994 debut album Stacked Up smashed into the UK charts at number 4, sparking a global wave of press, radio, TV and tours,—building a dedicated cult following along the way.
With a string of powerful album releases—including Asylum (1997), SCHEMAtic (2003), How To Do Battle (2009), and To The Capsules (2013)—Senser have continually evolved while keeping their revolutionary spirit alive. Collaborations with producers like Arthur Baker (Afrika Bambaataa), Neil McLellan (The Prodigy), and Scott Harding (New Kingdom, Wu-Tang Clan) have only sharpened their edge.
After the pandemic’s global pause, Senser roared back into action in 2023, selling out London’s iconic 100 Club. The gig marked a triumphant return, giving fans a first taste of new material destined for their upcoming album. The response was overwhelming—proof that Senser’s relevance and power remain as fierce as ever.
With a new album locked in for later this year, fans are fired up and counting down the days. Live shows are selling out fast as Senser fans rally behind a band that has always stood for something louder than just their sound.
