It’s been a long time between drinks, but the legendary The Scientists are back with a blistering new single and news of their first album in 35 years, ‘Negativity’, due out in June 2021 through In The Red Records.

The line up  consists of singer-guitarist Kim Salmon, lead guitarist Tony Thewlis, bassist Boris Sujdovic and drummer Leanne Cowie – all from the 1986 lineup.

The psychedelic surreal video matches the track: wild, oscillating madness with an unhinged air. This band was a pioneer of a paisley clad grunge before grunge existed and extraordinary innovators from the isolated Western Australia in the eighties. It’s great to see them back:

You can pre-order the album here.
