Thank You Scientist feat. Bluecoats - FXMLDR (Solar Powered Live Performance)

PREORDER TERRAFORMER TODAY! thankyouscientist.merchnow.co...
This is a special LIVE performance, recorded using 100% solar power in the fields of scenic western New Jersey, courtesy of our friends at The Sun Lab. If you’re the observant type, you may notice a few hundred extra band members. With some frantic planning (and even more frantic arranging), we were able to meet up with DCI world champions The Blue Coats for this very special performance.
Special thanks to Kevin Grossman of Sun Lab Studios and David Glasgow of the Blue Coats.
The studio version of "FXMLDR" is streaming on all platforms NOW. Download the exclusive live version from this video at our band camp!

Antoni Soroka also to be fair, the full hornline didn’t have nearly as many parts as the small ensemble in front did. So what you’re mainly hearing is the 8? Or so members that are in the front. Most of the full brass sections are towards the end when it picks up and you hear it more. Regardless, what an insane experience 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Xylophonists absolutely killing it. Those might be the most unusual clips ever presented as auditions to a major symphony orchestra. Amazing job by TYS and The Bluecoats, along with Doug Thrower's awesome, apparently last-minute arrangement. Sounds like we have another collaboration coming up too - super excited!

I don't see why not. They've added so many elements since the beginning of DCI, many of which seem blasphemous if you are either a long time fan or actually marched back in the day. Don't get me wrong, I still love DCI and still go to my local show every summer (well except for 2020 because everything sucks this year) but it can be quite a shock if you haven't been following them all along and you show up and see trombones out on the field, a keyboard player in the pit who also doubles as a DJ to sometimes play pre-recorded sounds, giant speakers for amplification of various mic'd instruments, including all of the soloists, and last but not least, giant set-pieces carted out onto the field. It can be quite a shock to the system to see all of these things when you grew up listening to, and watching, drum and bugle corps. Times have changed, and so has DCI. They've adapted and moved along. I won't be surprised at all if and when they decide to allow woodwind instruments, although I'd have to admit it will be really weird to see.

I was unsure if this is gonna be one of my new bands to listen but after 3:20.... I'm convinced :D
I had the privilege to see them Live at the Sylvee in Madison with Coheed and Cambria. They played this song months ago. When I returned home after the concert I was mortified at my inability to find this song anywhere. Months later I'm over joyed to find that the song does exist. Was beginning to think I'd need a map of non-existent places to find it again.
I've been waiting a lot for this to happen! Love it 💯💕
Stunning as always, new line-up is brilliant! Congratulations!
I've been waiting all damn week for this and i cannot tell you how happy i was to see this today. Literally one of the highlights of my day,
I can’t wait to see you in mn and blast your new album! Keep it up!

I haven't felt chills like this since hearing the breakdown in "Caverns" for the first time. Beyond excited for the new album.
Never before, have I needed something in my life so much, and not known until I had received it. Thank you.
You guys absolutely killed this song. The breakdowns make me feel emotions I didn't even know existed.
Absolutely amazing
Thank you, this is brilliant! I’m speechless. Just Thank you, indeed, scientist! 🙂👏🏽
This needs about 10 million more views. Nay, I dare say...10 BILLION!!! What excellent musicianship you guys! New fan unlocked
The fact that this whole album comes out on my birthday fills my heart with so much joy, and my wallet with so much sorrow, but it'll be the best birthday gift ever
This combines one of my favorite drum corps with one of my favorite bands
brand new fan and as soon as i heard your music i could hear the influence and knew your sound would pair well with a drum corps/winter percussion, and y'all were waaay ahead of me on that! You guys are a fantastic band and Bluecoats rule!
This is one of the best things ever. More bands and corps should team up like this. Amazing job all around.
Saw you guys open for Coheed in Charlotte a few years ago. Jaw was on the floor about 45 seconds in. Love the new album. Keep up the great work!!
