Serena Maneesh (sometimes spelled Serena-Maneesh or shortened to S-M) is an alternative rockband from Oslo, Norway. In an interview with Village Indian, Emil Nikolaisen, the songwriter of the band, explains the rather mysterious word-constellation the following way: ’Serena’ is an adaptation of the Norwegian word for veil... The name came out from this veil you can see, you can see the melody through a stressful storm of noise.

- Serena Maneesh (sometimes spelled Serena-Maneesh or shortened to S-M) is an alternative rockband from Oslo, Norway. In an interview with Village Indian, Emil Nikolaisen, the songwriter of the band, explains the rather mysterious word-constellation the following way: ’Serena’ is an adaptation of the Norwegian word for veil... The name came out from this veil you can see, you can see the melody through a stressful storm of noise. That’s what I love about music – you can work with this veil. There is so much stress in the world, you know? Serena could also mean serenity, serene. There are all these connotations. Then you see glints -- you see something incredible, but it’s in the moment. It’s through this veil. ‘Maneesh’ is a rewriting of the Norwegian word manesje, which is the area around a stage. Sirkus Merano, remember that? We later found out it was also the Hindu Lord of the Mind. But it is more a picture…if you look at a stage in a circus or opera, there’s an area surrounding the stage containing a lot of elements. Small, subtle elements that make the stage presence that much more powerful. That’s incredible. If you take that to the sound world…The whole thing is talking about the sound elements... For that reason, it's perfect. If ever two words conjured the elemental nature of this band’s sound, they are Serena-Maneesh.

- Serena Maneesh es una banda noruega de rock shoegazer formada en 1999. El sello barcelonese Touchme Records lanzó el primer disco Serena-Maneesh en España en Deciembre del 2005. El disco recibió muy buenas críticas de publicaciones noruegas, incluyendo el título de "Norwegian Album of the Year" de parte de la revista Dagbladet, como de independientes sitios norteamericanos como Pitchfork Media (8,6/10 parte del "Top 50 Albums of 2005") o el All Music Guide AMG (4,5/5). La influencia de The Velvet Underground, Sonic Youth o My Bloody Valentine fue notada por muchos críticos.

- Serena Maneesh er et alternativt rockeband med base i Oslo. Bandets frontmann er Emil Nikolaisen. Rundt seg har han samlet seg et nettverk av musikere som hver for seg bidrar til bandets unike sound. Nikolaisen har tidligere spilt trommer i punkrockbandet Silver og retropoporkesteret The Loch Ness Mouse. Han har endatil en fortid som gitarist i metalbandet Extol og i indiebandet Royal (der også Elvira Nikolaisen var med). Viktige inspirasjonskilder er bl.a. Velvet Underground, My Bloody Valentine, The Stooges, Spacemen 3, Stereolab, Royal Trux, Neu, George Gershwin. Som disse referansene antyder er bandets musikk preget av store spenninger. Intens støy og pulserende rytmer skjuler ofte vakre harmonier og melodiføringer. Skeive blues-riff avløses av psykedeliske strykere og vage vibrafoner, fløyter og orgler. Låtstrukturene og arrangementene er ofte rimelig uortodokse. Vokalen i Serena Maneesh fungerer som ett instrument blant mange. Ordene som synges reflekterer de samme spenninger som musikken forøvrig: spenningene i en sjel dratt mellom, på den ene side; mørke, angst og overfladiskhet, og på den andre side; lys, håp og åndelig dybde. Den særdeles kritikerroste selv-titulerte debutplaten ble gitt ut på det norske plateselskapet Honeymilk høsten 2005. Nå har imidlertid bandet meldt overgang til Playlouder i Beggars-group, London, UK. Bandet vant den nyopprettede turnèprisen under Alarmprisen 2006, en pris som ble delt ut i samarbeid med Rikskonsertene. De har varmet opp for både Dandy Warholes, Arctic Monkeys, Oasis, og Nine Inch Nails. I desember 2009 er de invitert av indiekultbandet My Bloody Valentine til å spille på prestisjefestivalen All Tomorrows Parties. Ny plate gis ut i mars 2010 på den anerkjente britiske indielabelen 4AD.
