Bitchin'

We Are Scientists

Scrappy, unpolished indie rock from the band's early days. Jagged guitars and a basement-show grit that feels much rawer than their later hits.

It's the Scientists before they got famous, sounding like they're playing in your neighbor's garage and having way too much fun.

A high-energy burst of witty, unpolished indie rock that feels both urgent and deeply unserious.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the sudden transition from the twelve-second intro into the abrasive, driving riff of track 2
the way the bassline carries the melodic weight during the bridge of Down the Hatch
the jarring contrast of the silent meditation track placed between two high-energy rock songs
