about the record

Head X'Change recounts a journey, a memory... of leaving Earth, a loved one, a body. Lifting off from tense, unnerving Tennessee, an ode is made to Genevieve, perhaps for the last time. Landing in eerily familiar valleys among Dawngarden and Superwillow's lunar debris, marveling back at Earth evokes a sense of tininess and innocence, captured in the stargazing blues of Embryo. The titular track then marks a sudden inward trajectory and shift in mood: cool winds and amorphous bursts of black and deep blue emanate from fissures, ominously foreshadowing tunneling paranoia. “Mark, Ring Me” is a distant plea for human contact... but it may be too late, as the aching psychedelia of For Iris grieves alone into the abyss. Traversing the twilight zone between the telluric and the extraterrestrial, Head X’Change radiates light during the endless search for something, anything, in moments of total darkness.
