The California-based indie rock band formed in 2000. As their bio reads, "Their name was inspired by an awkward conversation with a U-Haul employee who was inspecting a van that the band had rented. The U-haul employee, attempting to make polite conversation, asked the three bespectacled band members if they were brothers. They said no. He asked if they were scientists, as they looked like they could be the kind of people who wear lab coats. They told him that they were musicians, not scientists. To this day, they regret telling the truth" (
Bowery Ballroom). Scientists or not, we love the band's vibrant, crackling pop.
