Default Great Modern Rock band "Thank You Scientist"

THought you guys might appreciate these youngin's really bringing some musical ability to the music scene. They are actually put under the heading of 'metal' but they are a bit of progressive ska to my ear.

Here's one of my fav songs:

I liked it. Not sure what the genre is but it kinda reminded me of Steely Dan on steroids? Whatever it's called...thanks for sharing!

Wow, nice stuff. Reminds me somewhat of Snarky Puppy.

I like how they mix funk, jazz, a little metal/djent and much more all together.

Really tight players and expert arranging. Thanks for the tip!

Not my cup of (name your beverage)...

Too much going on.. sounds like everyone is doing their own thing and they just happen to be on the same stage together...

But then, the great thing about music is it's all subjective...

I agree. I think they'd be a tough listen, but live, with so much going on, it must be an amazing show.

It kind of makes me think of the Average White Band with the funk left out.

King Crimson meets Chicago meets Phil Collins? Interesting, though.
