In a way, We Are Scientists are the remnant of a bygone era, the hayday of indie rock, when bands such as Franz Ferdinand, Bloc Party and Kaiser Chiefs dominated the dance floor of every club. We Are Scientists’ Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt was part of that scene and will always remind me of good times I had at the disco. Having said that, I do feel old. With a bigger moustaches and grayer hair, We Are Scientists have aged well compared to some of their contemporaries and, seemingly out of nowhere, return with their fifth record Helter Seltzer. … we decided that our genre is ‘Helter Seltzer.’ The album’s title, an amalgam of The Beatles’ classic Helter Skelter and pain reliever Alka-Seltzer, shows that lead singer Keith Murray and bassist Chris Cain still consider themselves both, musicians and comedians.
