One week, one band. You know the drill.
This week, the featured artist is the Math and Physics Club.


Thanksgiving - a time to give thanks to what we love most. Friends, family, and great food! If that can't get you smiling for the week, I have a hunch there's a certain quintet out there that can do the job swimmingly.

Math and Physics Club. The name recalls that nerdy group of kids (in high school) who would spend their lunch huddled in a classroom talking about numbers. The group translates perfectly to the science department at your local university. Math and Physics Club almost harbors the same mood. Using witty, intellectually driven lyrics, mixed with head-nodding indie-pop, and very feel good vibes, it's hard to come up with any criticism for these folks.

MAPC have been around for nearing on four years now, and have a delightfully substantial album collection under their belt. You must be sure to give thanks for the delightful melodies by visiting their Myspace, and maybe even their personal website, where you'll undoubtedly come across the sale of their delicious albums! Get those turkey's ready for Thursday!
