The Dead Science

Consolidated Works
Seattle, WA

Like experimental pop running mates Blonde Redhead, Deerhoof, and Xiu Xiu, Seattle's The Dead Science infuse their songs with sometimes abrasive, sometimes unsettling doses of avant classical, free jazz, and other musical esoterica, while maintaining a heady pursuit of the perfect pop moment. Featuring Sam Mickens on guitar and vocals, Jherek Bischoff on upright bass, and Nick Tamburro on drums, The Dead Science present art songs of harrowing passion and palpable intimacy. Combining the hyper-active looseness of improvised music with the economical arrangements of classic pop, The Dead Science have achieved a new and strange model of the "power trio," which owes equal debts to Prince, Einsturzende Neubauten, and John Coltrane.

Members of The Dead Science have been contributors to/members of Degenerate Art Ensemble and Xiu Xiu, and have composed music for theater, dance, and 45-piece orchestra.
