surreal science

  • Surreal Science TOUR WEB SMIt’s called Surreal Science and is described “an off-the-rails salvage job, fashioned into a beautiful cinematic work of abstract sound and vision”. It features members and music of The Scientists and Kim Salmon and The Surrealistswith three drummers, three guitarists, two bass players and two vocalists, drawing on a repertoire of 160 songs.

    Kim Salmon is leading the ensemble and it tours Melbourne, Sydney and Perth in April, featuring two-hour-long sets with an intermission.  

    Guitarist Tony Thewlis; bassists Boris Sujdovic and Stu Thomas; drummers Clare Moore, Greg Bainbridge and Phil Collings; along with production engineer Hepburn and vocalist/guitarist Kim Salmon.

    They'll appear in tandem with a visual presentation of the passed, present and future of both of The Surrealists and The Scientists 

    As Kim himself says: “Not a tribute but a recognition of their part in this ever-evolving story”.

    The Scientists belligerently eschewed standard melody for minimalism, brutality and abstraction but remained staunchly Rock and Roll.
