“UnonoU is a word I made up,” explains guitarist and lead singer Dusty Sparkles. “People should think for themselves . I hate being specific. It’s boring.” This is in reference to the new album What’s not boring is much of anything about Danava’s densely-packed musical ideas and unstoppable live show, which kick down the doors of genre, clique, and scene.

Danava’s road-tightened aggression belies years of absorbing influence and spiritual journeying, the same journey that led three of Danava’s four members from central Illinois to Portland, Oregon, where they call home. “There wasn’t much happening when we got here,” guitarist/vocalist Dusty Sparkles said about his 2001 move out West. “But now we feel we’re a part of a really great thing.” As if in praise, the majority of UnonoU’s seven songs speak to an awakening brought on by the experiences the band has endured thus far, on and off the stage. “These songs are about self-discovery,” Sparkles illustrates. “Stop lying to yourself. Quit being afraid of change. Accept yourself. Stop believing everything you read or see on TV, and ask yourself how you really feel.”

Part of the excitement of Danava and their music is witnessing it all unfold.
