HERE (2010) - CD

Here-Cover.jpg

“Changing Modes leap from one radically dissimilar style to another with gusto, guile and a tunefulness that won’t quit. Blending classical flourishes, punk energy, playful and clever lyrics that draw on 80s new wave and a ubiquitous element of surprise, every time you think you’ve got them figured out, they drop something new on you.”    --Lucid Culture

1. Here (Griffiths) / 2. Moles (Griffiths) / 3. Louise (Griffiths) / 4. Cell to Cell (Griffiths) / 5. Embers Sweet (Rondeau) / 6. One (Griffiths) / 7. White Lightning (Griffiths) / 8. Diving Bell (Griffiths) / 9. Strange Invasion (Griffiths) / 10. The White Room (Griffiths) / 11. The Great Beyond (Griffiths/Sadashige) / 12. Meow Situation (Rondeau)

"A discerning mix of Dresden Dolls drama, Todd Rundgren complexity and something that leans towards a more traditional neo-prog sound... Changing Modes is clearly an ambitious band, they have some delightful slices of genuinely chewy progressive awkwardness in there with their very listenable blend of shifting sometimes demanding earfood."
