2) sela was formed in early 2004 in Rotterdam, NLand started off experimenting with different sounds to eventually find it’s way in a mixture of grunge, metal and indie. To get a rough idea, their songs have been influenced by bands like At The Drive-in, Far, Sevendust, Green Lizard and Nirvana. The name sela has been extracted from the hebrew word 'selah' - the point of silence before the (musical) climax or explosion. It is commonly used in Christian songstructure.

Dimitri and Daniël met in 2003 with the desire to start a band together. After alongwayout ( Dimitri's band ) broke up, they decided to do some sessions. Bart, a former bandmate of Dimitri’s, was invited as well and he brought along Daniel Lakens to play bass. Soon Jeremy was added to the foursome to do the vocals, then after a couple of sessions, all band members decided to look out for new bassplayer. A former bandmate of Jeremy’s, Javier, took the job for two shows, but after that he decided to continue with some of his own projects.

Robert, a friend of Bart’s joined in for a session, and stayed in the position of bass player.
After a couple of succesfull shows, the band moved on without Jeremy and found a new vocalist in Erik.

In 2007 the band recorded a 3 song EP named A day in the flames with Nick Radich of Digitube recording studio.
