Changing Tune is the third studio album and major label debut by English rock band Lower Than Atlantis.

Preceded by the non-album single "If the World Was to End", the band went on their first ever headlining tour in the UK in January 2012.

[2] The song was produced by John Mitchell, who bassist Dec Hart and drummer Eddy Thrower had known for longer than the rest of the band.

[4] On the final night of the tour, 27 January, the band announced they had signed to major label Island Records.

[6] Duce revealed that despite the increase of income "Nothing's really changed" for the band except for "the financial backing that we didn't have before".

[3] The group rented out a room for a week and guitarist Ben Sansom brought in his computer, which the band recorded into live.

[3] Changing Tune was recorded in early 2012 at Rockfield Studios[8] with Mitchell and Ben Humphreys producing.

[13] "Scared of the Dark" had been written by Duce shortly before the band had entered the studio.

[3] Thrower didn't initially want to add drums to it, making it sound like the other slow songs on the album.

[8] Duce came up with the title, while Sansom described that it was about "changing your tune in the positive and being more up-beat about situations".

[23] On 28 August, the band made "Normally Strange" available for free download via their Facebook page.

Lower Than Atlantis went on a headlining tour in the UK in October 2012 with The Dangerous Summer, Don Broco and Transit.

[5] Sansom later recalled: "[Island Records] wanted us to be almost as popular as a pop band and it was just never going to happen.

[48] Changing Tune was released to a mixed reaction from critics, with an aggregate score of 65 on the Metacritic website which indicate "generally favorable reviews".

Changing Tune was ranked at number 6 on Kerrang Radio's "Top 10 Albums of 2012" list.
