Event Description
Everyone wants to know about the name, so let's get that issue out of the way first. According to the band, they were named by an outsider, who asked the immortal question, "Are you guys scientists?" Of course they're not but, like Thomas Dolby, they could play men of science on TV - if they so choose. They don't, of course; they have better things to do. Like writing songs, playing in front of adoring audiences and recording three self-released EPs and, most recently, their debut full-length With Love and Squalor.
The Brooklyn trio, who by the way can be seen holding the cutest li'l kitty-cats in front of their faces on the cover of Love and Squalor, have created a hip, happening calling card with their album. Franz Ferdinand, XTC, and the Buzzcocks can be heard in trim pop-punk delights like "Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt," "This Scene is Dead" and "It's a Hit." Audiences primed for energetic, tightly written tunes with spazzy rythms and a sense of fun and adventure are singing the praises of these fearless challengers of the unknown, fresh out of the lab and on their way to the nation's stages.
