  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Jet-skis ripping across a jewel-green bay. Piña Coladas on ice, shredded in the blender. An alligator drops into a sick-ass guitar solo, then takes the last chorus up a notch with an unusual harmony you simply didn’t see coming.

    This is “Huffy,” the brand new studio album from We Are Scientists. Ten tracks recorded and produced by the band, and mixed by ear-athlete Claudius Mittendorfer, in a package that only you can complete

    A spacious gatefold cover presents you with a blank wall. The included sticker pack — plus whatever additional materials you dare muster — presents an opportunity. Will you create the ultimate version of “Huffy,” the one that perfectly articulates your understanding of the world and your place in it? Maybe, instead, you’ll arrange all the stickers on the ends of beheaded flower stems, and surprise your beloved with a bouquet they’ll never forget, and barely understand. That’s fine too! You’ll still have the record.

    Exclusively for pre-orders, we’ll include a transparent sticker that we’ve autographed with a permanent marker. Place this on your album artwork wherever you choose. Heck, place it on the dotted line of a really nasty contract! We won’t stand in your way.

    Just promise us this: when that gator drops into his solo, and that blender starts screaming its very creative harmony, and the sun is already settling down into the warm purple water of that bay, don’t just stand there staring, your brand new LP tucked tight under one arm.

    Dance.

lyrics

This must be nice; just what you wanted
Eaten alive: we've got that in common
Cognizant of unconscious threats
Saw it all off: that's what I do best
Respectful dissent, or cutting-glass comment?
You know what I said, but that's not what I meant
Taking what's mine, rightfully owed
Nobody minds, if nobody knows

We walked through this disaster
Maybe now I'm better off
I thought that we were past this
Somehow I'm still catching up
Well, it's best not to lie
But you can't really mean this
So let's not rely on a handshake agreement

Means don't want ends; it starts to seem funny
I trust all your friends, just not with my money
Capital gains start to mean less
You lost the whole game; who got the assist?
Respectful dissent or cutting-glass comment?
You know what I said but that's not what I meant
Take as a sign what's openly shown
Nobody minds if nobody knows

We walked through this disaster
Maybe now I'm better off
I thought that we were past this
Somehow I'm still catching up
Well, it's best not to lie
But you can't really mean this
So let's not rely on a handshake agreement

So much for your etiquette
You'd take exception but you're trying to be nice
That won't get you anywhere
This latest lesson really opened up my eyes
So much for your etiquette
Yeah, I could tell you were just trying to be nice
That won't get you anywhere
This latest lesson really opened up my eyes

We walked through this disaster
Maybe now I'm better off
I thought that we were past this
Somehow I'm still catching up
Well, it's best not to lie
But you can't really mean this
So let's not rely on a handshake agreement
Well, it's best not to lie
But you can't really mean this
So let's not rely on a handshake agreement
