Surreal ScienceAn off the rails salvage job fashioned into a beautiful cinematic work of abstract sound and vision featuring the live sounds and performances of 3 drummers, 3 guitarists, 2 bass players, 2 vocalists with all of them drawing on a repertoire of 160 songs to create a never to be repeated experience!
The stage is set for seamless transitions between the various iterations of the Surrealists and Scientists as they pummel, glide and burn their way through a transcendent set that is built thematically and dynamically rather than sequenced chronologically describing their evolution.
The Scientists belligerently eschewed standard melody for minimalism, brutality and abstraction but remained staunchly Rock and Roll. They travelled to the other side of the globe, exploded and imploded, along the way paving the way for Seattle grunge, the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Dinosaur Junior, Spaceman 3 and scores of others….
The Surrealists …well…. they took up the Scientists cudgel end belligerently wielded it in their own image! Every performance for them was a salvage job but melody and musician chops weren’t as much to be tossed aside as they were for their predecessors! It was all music let’s face it! It was all fair game! They realised very quickly that they needn’t paint their abstraction with someone else’s palette. And what a sonic picture they painted!
Guitarist Tony Thewlis; bassists Boris Sujdovic and Stu Thomas; drummers Clare Moore, Greg Bainbridge and Phil Collings; along with production engineer Hepburn and vocalists/guitarist Kim Salmon
will appear in tandem with a visual presentation of the passed, present and future of both of these bands before during and after the show projected onto, behind and above their performance. Not a tribute but a recognition of their part in this ever-evolving story.
Surreal Science presents the story, not as a narrative but an immersive, inside out, backwards, upside down, sensational experience.
With Surreal Science,
You’ll find your mind!
