Band Los Angeles United States Active 1991–2004
Sense Field formed in 1991 in Los Angeles, United States and was active until 2004. Sense Field has 10 chart appearances on 10 radio countdowns from 6 stations on RockLists, spanning 2001–2003. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “I Refuse”, which appears on 4 lists with a best position of #46. The station that charted Sense Field most often is WBER (Rochester, NY), with 3 appearances. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2002.
Sense Field came out of Harbor City, California, and played post-hardcore with its heart pinned to its sleeve and its melodies turned up. Jon Bunch was the frontman, with Chris Evenson, Ian Fowles, Rodney Sellars and drummer Scott McPherson among the players, and the band recorded for Revelation Records.
By 2001 they'd arrived at Tonight and Forever, where "Save Yourself" rides a surging, radio-sized chorus and Bunch sings like a man hauling himself up by the collar. Living Outside followed in 2003 with "I Refuse", and the band called it a day in 2004 after six albums.
They came back briefly for a pair of Revelation Records anniversary shows in 2012 and 2013. Bunch died in 2016, and the rest of the band played two memorial shows for him that same year.
