London Prog Gigs are pleased to present a very special Sunday lunchtime & afternoon double-header album launch live music event at the intimate Camden Club in London.Releasing Spring 2025, award-winning prog/alt-rock band HATS OFF GENTLEMEN IT’S ADEQUATE’s 8th album 'The Uncertainty Principle' explores the idea of uncertainty.
Until the development of quantum physics, science seemed to provide an ever more precise description of our world. With better equipment, our understanding increased. The closer we looked, the more certain we could be of the reality underlying our observations. Heisenberg’s 1927 uncertainty principle overturned that perception. He showed that for the smallest objects we can detect, increasing the knowledge of one aspect of the particle decreases our knowledge of another. This was most famously demonstrated for position and momentum. Although the uncertainty principle was discovered in relation to quite technical aspects relating to measurements of subatomic particles, I think it was part of an uncertainty revolution in human thought. We fundamentally cannot be certain about some aspects of the world around us. As physicists were overturning our assumptions about the nature of matter, Kurt Gödel showed in 1931 that any system of mathematics must have limitations. Psychology showed that our memories and self-perceptions can be wildly inaccurate. And the history of the 20th century is a testament to the dangers of trusting those who are blinded by certainty – Malcolm Galloway/Hat’s Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate
“Spiky neo-prog and art-rock. Never less than entertaining, passionate, humorous and committed” – Prog Magazine
