Miracles of Modern Science: futuristic pop
It’s ironic that non-traditional artists are turning away from using electric guitars and encompassing instruments that were cutting edge centuries ago. Miracles of Modern Science understand this irony, and sent us two Mp3s from their upcoming EP to share with you. Fans of Final Fantasy and Andrew Bird should take note of this band.
Miracles of Modern Science is a five-piece band that formed at Princeton and moved to Brooklyn; their members play violin, mandolin, cello, drums, and double bass. The lead vocalist, Evan Younger, plays double bass while singing anthemic melodies as the band sings along. Performing is metallic clothing and singing about spaceships and machines, Miracles of Modern Science has found a cohesive futuristic pop tie between sound, image, and word imagery.
We agree that Miracles of Modern Science “create an epic and inventive brand of music that can simultaneously be classified as futuristic pop, antebellum balladry and sea shanty singalong.” Do you?
