The New Record
Change Is The Only Constant is Seconds Before's most accomplished and complete work to date. The album rocks with a confidence that comes with years of experience and features songs that you just might not be able to get out of your head (in the good way, not the annoying way).

Change Is The Only Constant might as well be the motto of the current decade, and there's no question the sound of this band has evolved over their nine-year existence. Sure, the trademark twin guitar interplay is still there, along with soaring vocal harmonies and one of the hardest hitting rhythm sections around, but on this record there's a definite sense of the unexpected.

Inspired by the highs and lows of life in their hometown (including a sincere reflection on the heroes and victims of the 35W bridge collapse in "Calling Home"), the album represents the band's most mature and honest songwriting to date.

There's no pretense to any artificial rock star fantasy here. This is rock about real life performed by five working guys who haven't forgotten the simple joy of turning amps up loud and singing at the top of their lungs. So give the newest Seconds Before album a spin or nine, but don't get too comfortable, because change is... well, you know.

A Brief History
Seconds Before was incorporated in the amazing year 1999, and have successfully weathered turnover in the ever-critical vocalist slot not once but twice. Vocalist Brian Larson has been with the band since 2002 and made his debut on the band's 2003 full-length Further Destinations (on iTunes), which has received national college and satellite radio airplay and strong reviews. The band's history reaches back even further into the early 90's as many of the band members played in seminal Minneapolis hardcore and rock acts, including Threadbare, Downside, Bloodline, 108, Picturesque. With years of collective touring, writing, and performing experience under their belt, Seconds Before has become a precision rock machine.

Quotes
"Complex power-pop with excellent guitar work and melodies and a tight as hell rhythm section. Foo Fighters meet Weezer. This should be modern rock."
Blake Rainey - (VP, AnR, Shut Eye Records)
