By shifting perspectives and using intricate vocal harmonies, the band pulls listeners into a world where reality and superstition run into each other and things feel uncertain.
What makes "Changeling" work so well is Under Starling's skill for setting a mood and vibe that draws out emotions in the listener. The haunting singing combined with the moving sound design produces an uneasy chilling atmosphere that matches the dark, brooding theme of the song.
