ABOUT THANK YOU SCIENTIST (THANKYOUSCIENTIST.COM)
Thank You Scientist is an eclectic, vibrant and well-hydrated progressive rock band from New Jersey. Their third album, Terraformer, sees the septet at their most jubilant and most unpredictable. The band has taken their experimental, genre-bending sound to the next level by delivering an extremely ambitious and constantly stimulating 84-minutes of experimental rock and roll music. Some might even say it’s the band’s Oop… I Did It Again. I’m saying it right now. Terraformer is the Oops… I Did It Again of progressive rock.Founded by guitarist and bandleader Tom Monda, the band self-released thePerils of Time Travel EP in 2011, before signing with Claudio Sanchez's label Evil Ink Records. Their 2012 full length debut, Maps of Non-Existent Placesmade it onto the Billboard Hard Rock and Heatseekers charts, and was eventually named “Album of the Week” by Revolver Magazine in 2014. They followed up in 2016 with Stranger Heads Prevail, which cracked the Billboard Top 200 and co-starred on “Home Improvement” with Tim Allen.
