Visual Summaries III

We Are Scientists and the rules of partying

14.05

Posted in Music

This is part III of visual Summaries, our collabo with photographer Marc Deurloo, where you meet bands through exclusive photography and fresh tracks of their latest album. New York-based indie band We Are Scientists are about to release their new album Barbara. Keith Murray and Chris Cain originally took influence from bands such as The Rapture, Franz Ferdinand and David Bowie, with much of the lyrical content derived from partying in NYC. Go listen to their new single Rules Don’t Stop while you watch the Visual Summaries, all after the jump. Previous editions: Hef and Liars.
