Max had just finished a three-year stint as the keyboardist for international super-mega- person Katy Perry. The recordings were shipped to mixer Chris Coady at Sunset Sound in L.A. who has quietly emerged in recent years as one of the finest mixers of glossy indie pop, with credits that include Future Islands, Beach House, and !!!. Finally, the music was passed through the deluxe mastering machine that are the ears of Greg Calbi (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Noel Gallagher, Perfume Genius) to add a coat of heft and sparkle, and in January of 2016, nearly a year after construction began, the album was pronounced complete.<\/p>\n<p>Guitarist and vocalist Keith Murray and bassist Chris Cain say about their music: \u201eIt\u2019s made us really think about what our musical genre is. We\u2019re not punk \u2014 we\u2019re too interested in making our songs as pretty as possible. We\u2019re not straight-up rock \u2014 our tastes are too left-of- centre. We\u2019re not indie-rock \u2014 our heads aren\u2019t far enough up our own butts. So finally, after putting as much time into thinking about it as we\u2019re apt to \u2014 about ten minutes, over beers \u2014 we decided that our genre is \u201cHelter Seltzer\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Helter Seltzer is a wonderful album with slightly dramatic music. We Are Scientists were formed in 2005. They played already at great festivals (Glastonbury, Reading &amp; Leeds, Coachella, T in the Park) and performed at shows such as Joolse Hollanda or David Letterman. Their first album With Love 6 Spualor was sold more then 150000 times. We Are Scientists were the support of REM and their first three albums were produced by Ariel Rechtshaid, who also produced for Vampire Weekend and Usher. Have a look at their music videos, they are worth to see!<\/p>\n<p>Line-up:<br \/>\n20:00 doors open<br \/>\n21:30 We Are Scientists<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We Are Scientists, the Brooklyn, New York based power pop troupe, just released in April their 5th album \u201cHelter Seltzer\u201d.
