What inspired the name of the band? What are your influences and are they the same as when you started out?

As a solo artist I simply go by my real name
Jenna Leigh-Raine I believe my name is striking enough as it is. My influences come from things like films, buildings architecture pictures.

How do you approach songwriting?

I’ve written my past few albums as if they were for films. I like to imagine visually what the characters are saying and doing.
The albums are based around human failings as is the new one, though in reality, it’s about a vision of surviving alone outside of a new authoritarianism. I like dystopian ideas and more. I usually grab a guitar, play and wait until I come onto a good idea. Or I write a full lyric or start humming a melody and record it as a note into my phone

Why?

I get more excited hearing unusual walls of atmosphere and guitar riffs. I would say it’s ciné-matic, industria.

Live?

GodNOISE from the new album has a deep sustained synth drone which creates a great intro and immediate excitement, atmosphere. It’s good to have 3-4 upbeat songs in an album to build up the audience and room until surprising them with a more powerful, emotional track and then travelling back to a heavy, darker, rockier number before choosing a track that will have a repeating crescendo and leave the stage with the rumbling of noise carrying on.
