'Low Mode', the debut single from the enigmatic Colour Of Bone opens with an infectious distorted guitar riff set against a dense backdrop of pulsating electronics; brooding a sense of melodrama. The enigmatic artist, composer and musician behind the Colour Of Bone moniker, who does not wish to be named, appears only as a silhouette in the track's accompanying video. Singing of romantic misgivings, ‘Low Mode’ intensifies as the thick crunching bass rolls and descends again and again beside fat thumping toms, eventually being answered by the futuristically heavy simplicity of its harmonised chorus. Hell hath no fury like a guitar scorned.

Best known for his innovative and unique guitar work with YES and Flash, as well as his own critically acclaimed solo albums, guitar legend Peter Banks passed away at his home in London on March 8, 2013. Banks, a founding member of the ground breaking progressive rock group YES, performed on the band's first two albums, 'Yes' and 'Time And A Word'. He would go on to form Flash and release 3 well-received albums (Flash, In The Can, Out Of Our Hands), along with several successful tours of Europe and the US, culminating in an appearance on the widely watched late night American TV show 'The Midnight Special'. With an admitted fondness for improvisation, music critics touted Banks as a cross between Pete Townshend and Wes Montgomery. Even Pete Townshend, one night after witnessing a YES performance, walked up to Banks, slapped him on the back and said, “You're great!”
