Mode Moderene are: Phillip (Vocals), Felix (9Strings), Clint (4String), Rebecca (Synth) and Sean (Drums).

The members of Vancouver's Mode Moderne have a penchant for all things dark and gloomy, but that doesn't get in the way of their quest for the perfect pop song.

The outfit continue to win over audiences and tastemakers alike, earning the attention of Pitchfork, This Is Fake DIY and Vancouver's own Light Organ Records. The label signed the band, and on June 14, 2011, released the seven-inch "Real Goths"/"Undiscovered Country." Replete with pulsing electro beat, haunting stabs of guitar and synth, and Intilé's signature self-deprecating croon, it's another tantalizing glimpse into Mode Moderne's eerie world. And with another full-length planned for the fall, the darkness will only keep spreading.

What people are saying about Mode Moderne:

"Check out this particularly shadowy track" -Pitchfork

"A classic blend of beauty and darkness" -This Is Fake DIY

"Pulsing drum machines, swathy synthesizers, ethereal guitar leads, and blankets of ambient-satin. Let’s welcome the new age." - Weird Canada

‘It's easy to imagine how Canada could be a breeding ground for a dark, swirling synth revival, and Vancouver's Mode Moderne has taken the reigns. Refashioning goth with an ambient touch, the five-piece makes light of its roots with a nod in the track title "Real Goths". Industrial-inspired vocals wind their way through a gentle slope of synth and drum machines, coming together for a more melodic take on the minimalism of yore.’ RCRD LBL.
