We Are Scientists Kicks Off 2023 With Their “Funkiest Tune Yet”

We Are Scientists Will Release “Lobes” on January 20th, 2023!

“It’s nice that things have come full-circle,” says We Are Scientists vocalist/guitarist Keith Murray about the band’s groovy, synth-laced indie track “Settled Accounts” (which premiered via Under The Radar). “Strident old Keith would have argued that funk was the one true musical genre. And here we are, with our funkiest tune yet.” Taken from their eighth official studio album Lobes (release date: January 20, 2023 via Masterswan Recordings), the track brims with chiming, funk-infused guitars while its epicly soaring chorus begs for a singalong. “When I was a younger, more brazen guy, I was incredibly steadfast in my beliefs,” he adds in regards to the meaning of the song. “Everything I liked was not just ‘enjoyable,’ but ‘categorically good,’ the people I hung out with were not just ‘fun people,’ but the ‘best gang,’ the ideas I subscribed to were not just ‘interesting,’ but ‘fundamentally correct.’ These days, I’m just way less sure about everything.”

The funky/indie-pop “Settled Accounts” arrives hot on the heels of their previous breakneck singles from 2022 (“Operator Error,” “Less From You,” and “Lucky Just To Be Here”) and precedes the upcoming release of their eighth album Lobes and album release show (happening at Brooklyn, NYC’s Brooklyn Made) on January 20th. We Are Scientists will also be announcing more US dates in the coming months following the band’s UK and Europe Show Lobes Tour this Spring.
